Questions and Answers
Acetylcholine (ACh) is the neurotransmitter in the preganglionic sympathetic and parasympathetic neurons, as well as at the adrenal medulla and all parasympathetic-innervated organs.

Acetylcholine (ACh) role
Acetylcholine (ACh) role
ACh is the neurotransmitter in preganglionic neurons of both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. It's also involved in the adrenal medulla and all parasympathetically-innervated organs.
Cholinergic neurotransmission
Cholinergic neurotransmission
The process of ACh being used and deactivated at the cholinergic synapse.
Sweat glands and piloerector muscles
Sweat glands and piloerector muscles
These structures in the sympathetic nervous system are not controlled by ACh, indicating a different neurotransmitter is at play.
