Planteome: Term Details for "synaptic transmission, serotonergic" (GO:0099153)

Accession: GO:0099153
Name: synaptic transmission, serotonergic
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: serotonergic synaptic transmission
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The vesicular release of serotonin from a presynapse, across a chemical synapse, the subsequent activation of serotonin receptors at the postsynapse of a target cell (neuron, muscle, or secretory cell) and the effects of this activation on the postsynaptic membrane potential and ionic composition of the postsynaptic cytosol. This process encompasses both spontaneous and evoked release of neurotransmitter and all parts of synaptic vesicle exocytosis. Evoked transmission starts with the arrival of an action potential at the presynapse. Source: GOC:dph, GOC:dos
