neuromodulators
neuromodulators
It has been suggested that this article or section be merged with neuromodulator.
Neuromodulators modulate regions or circuits of the brain. That is, they affect a group of neurons, causing a modulation of that group's functioning. In contrast, neurotransmitters convey information from one neuron to another (or from a neuron to another cell, such as a muscle cell). But many neuromodulators do also act as neurotransmitters.
Examples of neuromodulators are substance P (pain perception) and endorphins (pain killers)

Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant with the weak and the wrong. Sometime in your life you will have been all of these.
