• Learn and practice neurotransmitters, antagonists, mediators and important neuroreceptors (e. g. acetylcholine receptor, NMDA receptor, GABA-A receptor, Dopamine receptor D2, Histamine H1 receptor, Glycine receptor and others).

• The components of the cellular signal transduction process (agonists, antagonists, mediators, effectors and receptors) are arranged randomly and can be brought into the correct order by tapping on the images. In this way, the individual components are represented in their functional context and can be learned more easily.

• In the glossary you will find a short explanation of the most important terms.

• The correctness of the chosen arrangement, as well as the correct solution can be displayed at any time.

• The operation is self-explanatory and intuitively understandable.

• The target group of the app are scientifically interested students, as well as students of neurobiology, medicine and psychology.

Features


• Learn about 50 neurotransmitters and their function at different receptors: Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor, NMDA receptor, GABA-A receptor, Dopamine receptor D2, Histamine H1 receptor, Serotonin 1A receptor, Glycine receptor, μ-opioid receptor, Vasopressin receptor 2, Alpha-1 adrenergic receptor, Beta-1 adrenergic receptor, Oxytocin receptor, NK1 Receptor, AMPA receptor, A2A-Adenosine receptor, Cannabinoid receptor type 1.

• The name and structural formula of the neurotransmitters are displayed.

• The images can be enlarged by zooming with two fingers, so that even details are visible.

• When a certain receptor is selected, neurotransmitters, signal mediators, effectors and receptor type are randomly arranged. The arrangement can be reshuffled at any time or the correct arrangement can be displayed.

• The glossary contains more than 50 important technical terms.

• No registration is required.

• No telemetry data are recorded!
