title: Interneuronal information transfer: recent advances in synaptology.
abstract: The elementary mechanisms underlying synaptic transmission are described with respect to the following topics: 1. morphology and bioelectric activity of nerve cells; 2. electrical and chemical synapses; 3. transmitter-operated opening of membrane channels on the basis of allosteric effects; 4. synaptic transmission on the basis of second messengers (adenylate-cyclase-system, phosphoinositol-cycle); 5. interactions of transmitters.
