Preferred Label : receptors, neurotransmitter;
MeSH definition : Cell surface receptors that bind signalling molecules released by neurons and convert
these signals into intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Neurotransmitter
is used here in its most general sense, including not only messengers that act to
regulate ion channels, but also those which act on second messenger systems and those
which may act at a distance from their release sites. Included are receptors for neuromodulators,
neuroregulators, neuromediators, and neurohumors, whether or not located at synapses.;
