Article Topic: Synthesis of Adrenergic Neurotransmitters Author: Osama Khaldoun Batiha Editors: Yazan S. Al-Zamer, Ethar Hazaimeh. Keywords: Catecholamines, Neurotransmitter, synapse.   Overview Adrenergic neurotransmitters are catecholamines compounds (They are called catecholamines because of the catechol group in their structures) and it divides into epinephrine (adrenaline), norepinephrine (noradrenaline), and dopamine. Catecholamines act both as neurotransmitters and hormones vital to the maintenance of homeostasis through the autonomic nervous system[1]. These Neurotransmitters are secreted from postganglionic nerve fiber in a junction called a synapse ( the site of transmission of the electrical impulses between two nerve cells (neurons) or between a neuron and […]
