An antagonistic effect on neurotransmitter synthesis includes
A) blocking a precursor.
B) promoting a precursor.
C) blocking NT release.
D) promoting NT release.
E) blocking the autoreceptor.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Blocking a precursor would decrease the amount of neurotransmitter available for synthesis, leading to an antagonistic effect. Promoting a precursor would have the opposite effect and increase neurotransmitter synthesis, which would be a synergistic effect. Blocking NT release and autoreceptors would affect neurotransmitter release, not synthesis.
