Synaptic Function

Molecular classification: Biological Process, Functional Unit

Overview

Synaptic function refers to the process by which nerve impulses are transmitted between two nerve cells (neurons) or between a neuron and another target cell, such as a muscle or gland cell. This transmission occurs at specialized junctions called synapses, which are fundamental for neuronal communication and underlie all neural circuit activity in the nervous system.
