Golgi tendon organs
Biology; Neuroscience
Receptors located in muscle tendons that provide mechanosensory information to the central nervous system about muscle tension.
metabotropic receptors
Biology; Neuroscience
Receptors that are indirectly activated by the action of neurotransmitters or other extracellular signals, typically through the aegis of G-protein activation.
