Today's Medical Topic: Neuromodulators
My Research Today: A neuromodulator is defined as any substance other than a meurotransmitter, that is released by a neuron to transmit information to other neurons and alter their activity. So in plain English a neuromodulator fucks with your normal information transfer between neurons.
Many things are neuromodulators, not all of them bad, however, some can be devestating. THC, the active ingredient in marijuana is a neruomodulator that effects synaptic plasticity, motor learning, appetite and pain sensation. Synaptic plasticity is the strength of transmission between neurons. Basically THC slows everything down and over time can cause permanent damage to synaptic plasticity with chronic use.
Neuromodulators do not breakdown easily and spend a significant amount of time in your spinal fluid continuously affecting brain activity. This could be a good thing, like affecting your serotonin system and acting as an antidepressant. Alternately it could be a bad thing and effect your cholinergic system and ruin your motor control or make it so you can't pee.
Well, I am keeping this brief because I barely understand this topic. It is very complicated and I don't have the time to really dissect it. Have a good night and don't smoke weed. It's bad for you.
