Autonomic Nervous System Neurotransmitters
- Acetylcholine (ACh) is used as a neurotransmitter at both sympathetic and parasympathetic preganglionic nerve endings.
- The parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system uses ACh as a neurotransmitter in its postganglionic nerve fibers.
- In the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system, ACh serves as a neurotransmitter in some postganglionic fibers.
