Source sentences:
text: Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter needed to signal muscle movement.[x]
text: In vertebrates, acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter used at the neuromuscular junction, where signals are transmitted between neurons from the central nervous system to muscle fibres.
text: Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter in all preganglionic neurons in both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, as well as all parasympathetic postganglionic neurons.
text: When compared to slow-wave deep sleep, both paradoxical and waking sleep involve higher use of acetylcholine (the neurotransmitter) which may well explain the faster brainwaves.
text: Nicotine attaches to receptors for acetylcholine, the neurotransmitter for the cholinergic system.
text: For example, acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter released at the terminal branches of motor neurons that come in close contact with muscle fibers (in this case, the synapse is called the neuromuscular junction).
text: Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter secreted by the somatic motor neurons.
text: During your REM sleep, acetylcholine – the neurotransmitter Otto Loewi found with his idea, floods the brain and interrupts the connection between the hippocampus and the neocortex.
text: Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter used at the neuromuscular junction—in other words, it is the chemical that motor neurons of the nervous system release in order to activate muscles.
