Source sentences:
text: Glutamate acts on several types of receptors, and has effects that are excitatory at ionotropic receptors and a modulatory effect at metabotropic receptors.
text: Depending on the type of receptor, the resulting effect on the postsynaptic cell may be excitatory, inhibitory, or modulatory in more complex ways.
text: Depending on the type of ion, the effect on the target cell may be excitatory or inhibitory.
text: Because different targets can (and frequently do) use different types of receptors, it is possible for a neuron to have excitatory effects on one set of target cells, inhibitory effects on others, and complex modulatory effects on others still.
text: Depending on the type of receptor, the effect on the postsynaptic cell may be excitatory, inhibitory, or modulatory in more complex ways.
text: Depending on the type of ion, the effect on the target cell may be excitatory or inhibitory by bringing the membrane potential closer or farther from threshold for triggering an action potential.
text: Because different targets can (and frequently do) use different types of receptors, it is possible for a neuron to have excitatory effects on one set of target cells, inhibitory effects on others, and complex modulatory effects on others still.
text: In principle, a single neuron, releasing a single neurotransmitter, can have excitatory effects on some targets, inhibitory effects on others, and modulatory effects on others still.
