Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Autoreceptors are sensitive to the neurotransmitter released by the neuron itself. This allows for negative feedback mechanisms that regulate neurotransmitter release and maintain homeostasis in the nervous system. Autoreceptors do not respond to EPSPs, IPSPs, cyclic AMP, or APs.
