DJMMM: question 4 U: » djmmm

Posted by Janelle on March 30, 2002, at 3:01:30

In reply to Re: They're not SSRI's so what are Remeronand Serzone?, posted by djmmm on March 28, 2002, at 10:12:32

You wrote that Remeron blocks specific norepinephrine receptors called alpha2-receptors and that serotonin neurons also contain alpha2-receptors ...

This leads me to ask a very, very embarassing question (I can't believe I'm posting this!) -- what exactly is a neuron?

I know that serotonin is a neurotransmitter, so are there specific neurons that release and reuptake specific neurotransmitters? For example, is there a dopamine neuron that handles dopamine, etc.? Man, do I feel DUMB.
