• • • Acetylcholine- slows heart rate; PNS Glutamate- most prevalent neurotransmitter in the brain Aspartate- in CNS GABA- inhibitory neurotransmitter Glycine- inhibitory neurotransmitter Norepinephrine- awakening from deep sleep tyrosine Epinephrine- increase heart rate Dopamine- movement of skeletal muscles Seratonin- sensory perception, temp regulation, mood, sleep Nitric oxide- may play a role in memory and learning Enkephalin- inhibit pain impulses by suppressing release of substance P Substance P- enhances perception of pain

Converging circuit • same source • Pacinian corpuscles -- pressure • different sources • control of respiration Diverging Circuit • permits broad distribution of a specific input • types • A. amplification • B. divergence into multiple tracts

Parallel after-charge circuit • several neurons process same information at one time • each

Parallel after-charge circuit • several neurons process same information at one time • each chain has a different number of synapses, but eventually they all reconverge on a single output • output neuron may go on firing for some time after input has ceased • important in withdrawal reflexes • longer-lasting output from small period of pain

Reverberating Circuit • axons extend back toward the sources of an impulse and further

Reverberating Circuit • axons extend back toward the sources of an impulse and further stimulate the presynaptic neuron • helps maintain consciousness, muscular coordination, normal breathing, short term memory. . .
