Abstract

Neurons, the fundamental units of the nervous system, communicate through intricate chemical signaling processes mediated by neurotransmitters. This review delves into the mechanisms by which neurotransmitters facilitate neuronal communication, highlighting their roles in coordinating essential functions such as sensory perception, motor control, and cognitive processes. Understanding neurotransmitter systems not only elucidates the complexities of neural networks but also informs therapeutic strategies for neurological and psychiatric disorders. By examining current research and advancements in this field, this review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of neurotransmitter function and its implications for brain function and health.
