Alcohol on learning and memory-related neurotransmitters and receptor.docVIP

 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 12 Alcohol on learning and memory-related neurotransmitters and receptor Study: Pan Guilan Chen Xiaodong Zhang Yanjie [Keywords:] learning and memory in alcohol-related neurotransmitter Learning and memory is one of the higher nervous activity of the brain is a very complicated process, so far the detailed mechanism has not been elucidated, the current research from different areas made the corresponding elaboration. Neurotransmitters and related receptors in learning and memory process plays an important role in both. alcohol on learning and memory can produce different degrees of impact is an indisputable fact. However, the effects of alcohol on learning and memory mechanism is unclear. In this paper, drinking and related neurotransmitters in learning and memory and its receptor were reviewed. 1 and neurotransmitters associated learning and memory Neurotransmitters are closely related with learning and memory, such as the proposed activities of cholinergic drugs can enhance memory, anti-cholinergic drugs makes learning and memory impairment; a certain amount of enkephalin animals can damage the learning process, and naloxone can enhance memory. 40 years for the first time the 20th century, located in the brain and memory function in temporal lobe; later discovered to be the temporal lobe in learning and memory in the hippocampus plays an important role. hippocampal including the major neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) to 5 - hydroxytryptamine (5 - HT) to other systems, the neurotransmitters involved in learning and memory in the brain. In addition, peptide hormones, including the media, to include the role of a class of very extensive material, and the relationship between learning and memory also caused concern in recent years. kinin category includes substance P, neuropeptide K and neurokinin A, etc., they often co-exist with classical neurotransmitters involved in learning and memory formation. 1.1 5-HT and 5-HT re
