Chapter 7 on acetylcholine provides a comprehensive overview of the role and mechanisms of this essential neurotransmitter. It discusses the synthesis of acetylcholine (ACh) by the enzyme choline acetyltransferase from choline and acetyl coenzyme A and how its production is influenced by precursor availability and neuronal activity. The chapter also covers the storage and release of ACh in synaptic vesicles and the impact of various drugs and toxins on these processes, highlighting the effects o...
