Little information is available regarding the neuronal regulation of diencephalic DA neurons as compared with the mesotelencephalic DA neurons. Nonetheless, several neurotransmitter systems have been implicated in the neural control of these DA neurons based on (1) early anatomical studies showing colocalization of specific neurotransmitters and their receptors in regions of the hypothalamus containing perikarya or axon terminals...

A 100 years of research has established that a major function of AChE is to hydrolyze the ACh released by cholinergic neurons, regulating the course of neural transmission at synapses, motor endplates, and other effector sites. The reaction is multistep first is the formation of a reversible enzyme-substrate complex (EAX) second is the acetylation of the catalytic site of the enzyme (EA) and third is the hydrolysis of the enzyme-substrate complex yielding...

Millions of specialized neurons have the task to perceive, process and transmit information of both the external and internal environments, which is important for the various functions of the nervous system. Millions of other neurons regulate the contraction of skeletal and smooth muscles and the secretion of hormones. The human brain contains about 1012 neurons, each forming as many as a thousand connections with other neurons. Despite the complexity of the nervous system as a whole, the structure and function of individual types of nerve cells is understood in greater detail today. Neurons usually consist of four distinct regions with differing... 

Taken together, these results suggest that increased activity in presynaptic neurons regulates cell survival enhancing the formation of correct connections. Increased activity, independent of neuronal firing, in the postsynaptic target can promote cell death as the target is already innervated by more appropriate neurons.
