The regulated release of neurotransmitter from the presynapse into the synaptic cleft via calcium-regulated exocytosis during synaptic transmission. [GOC:dph]
Neurotransmitter secretion is a complex process that involves the release of chemical messengers from neurons, enabling communication between cells. This process can be broken down into several key steps:
1. **Synthesis:** Neurotransmitters are synthesized within the neuron, often in the cytoplasm or within specific organelles like vesicles. The specific neurotransmitter synthesized depends on the type of neuron.
2. **Packaging:** Once synthesized, neurotransmitters are packaged into small membrane-bound vesicles, which are typically concentrated at the presynaptic terminal, the specialized area of the neuron where communication occurs.
3. **Transport:** These vesicles are transported to the presynaptic terminal via microtubule-based transport mechanisms.
4. **Docking and Priming:** The vesicles then dock and prime at the presynaptic membrane, ready for release. This involves interactions between specific proteins on the vesicle and the presynaptic membrane.
5. **Fusion and Exocytosis:** An action potential arriving at the presynaptic terminal triggers the opening of voltage-gated calcium channels. The influx of calcium ions initiates a cascade of events leading to the fusion of the docked vesicles with the presynaptic membrane. This fusion releases the neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft, the narrow gap between the presynaptic and postsynaptic neurons.
6. **Receptor Binding:** The released neurotransmitter diffuses across the synaptic cleft and binds to specific receptors on the postsynaptic membrane. This binding initiates a signal transduction cascade within the postsynaptic neuron, leading to changes in its activity.
7. **Reuptake and Degradation:** After neurotransmitter binding, the signal is terminated. This can occur through reuptake mechanisms, where the neurotransmitter is transported back into the presynaptic terminal, or through enzymatic degradation, where the neurotransmitter is broken down by specific enzymes.
This intricate process of neurotransmitter secretion ensures efficient and precise communication between neurons, which is crucial for all aspects of nervous system function, including sensory perception, motor control, and cognitive processes.'

clozapine | clozapine : A benzodiazepine that is 5H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepine substituted by a chloro group at position 8 and a 4-methylpiperazin-1-yl group at position 11. It is a second generation antipsychotic used in the treatment of psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia. Clozapine: A tricylic dibenzodiazepine, classified as an atypical antipsychotic agent. It binds several types of central nervous system receptors, and displays a unique pharmacological profile. Clozapine is a serotonin antagonist, with strong binding to 5-HT 2A/2C receptor subtype. It also displays strong affinity to several dopaminergic receptors, but shows only weak antagonism at the dopamine D2 receptor, a receptor commonly thought to modulate neuroleptic activity. Agranulocytosis is a major adverse effect associated with administration of this agent. | benzodiazepine; N-arylpiperazine; N-methylpiperazine; organochlorine compound | adrenergic antagonist; dopaminergic antagonist; EC 3.4.21.26 (prolyl oligopeptidase) inhibitor; environmental contaminant; GABA antagonist; histamine antagonist; muscarinic antagonist; second generation antipsychotic; serotonergic antagonist; xenobiotic |
