Segregation of glutamatergic and cholinergic transmission at the mixed motoneuron Renshaw cell synapse
Abstract In neonatal mice motoneurons excite Renshaw cells by releasing both acetylcholine (ACh) and glutamate. These two neurotransmitters activate two types of nicotinic receptors (nAChRs) (the homomeric α7 receptors and the heteromeric α*ß* receptors) as well as the two types of glutamate recept...
