Synthesis and release of neurotransmitters

The synthesis of neurotransmitters involves biochemical reactions that convert precursor molecules into neurotransmitters, often involving enzymes. Neurotransmitters are stored in synaptic vesicles, ready for release upon neuronal stimulation. Calcium influx triggers exocytosis, where synaptic vesicles fuse with the presynaptic membrane, releasing neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft.
