Monoamine neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and histamine regulate brain physiology and behavior by chemically bonding to histone proteins, influencing circadian gene expression and ...

There are two types of removal: Re-uptake – the neurotransmitter is reabsorbed back into the presynaptic neuron and restored inside a vesicle ready to be used again. For example, noradrenaline.

A fluorescent probe designed to incorporate a fluorophore into the structure of a neurotransmitter finds activity-dependent heterogeneity in dopamine release at individual synapses ...
