Difference between Curare and Neurotransmitter

Curare vs. Neurotransmitter

Curare or is a common name for various plant extract alkaloid arrow poisons originating from Central and South America. Neurotransmitters are endogenous chemicals that enable neurotransmission.

Similarities between Curare and Neurotransmitter

Curare and Neurotransmitter have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Acetylcholine, Action potential, Neuromuscular junction, Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, Receptor antagonist, Strychnine.

Acetylcholine

Acetylcholine (ACh) is an organic chemical that functions in the brain and body of many types of animals, including humans, as a neurotransmitter—a chemical message released by nerve cells to send signals to other cells.

Action potential

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise.

Neuromuscular junction

A neuromuscular junction (or myoneural junction) is a chemical synapse formed by the contact between a motor neuron and a muscle fiber.

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, or nAChRs, are receptor proteins that respond to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.

Receptor antagonist

A receptor antagonist is a type of receptor ligand or drug that blocks or dampens a biological response by binding to and blocking a receptor rather than activating it like an agonist.
