ILOs

• Use adrenaline signalling as an example to describe mechanisms of signalling through G-protein-coupled receptors
• Explain how specificity is achieved in cell signalling
• Outline how information can be transmitted electrically in cells and tissues, including how nerve impulses travel in neurons
• Understand how signals are transmitted between nerve cells and across the neuromuscular junction; including how neurotransmitters and ion-channel-linked receptors allow this transmission
• Give examples whereby pharmacology exploits our understanding of signal transduction

• Adrenaline
• Signalling in the Nervous System
