Then, there are antagonists that slow down the amount of neurotransmitters, either because they destroy neurotransmitters or they make it hard to create more.

另一种是抑制剂,抑制剂会抑制神经递质的释放量,有可能是通过破坏神经递质而实现,也可能是通过抑制神经递质的生成而实现

So, that process happens fast but you also need this neurotransmitter release and activation to happen fast so that you can have rapid activity.

所以 电传递过程很快,但你仍需要神经递质的,快速释放和快速激活,以便使你快速活跃起来

And what an agonist does is increases the effect of neurotransmitters, either by making more neurotransmitters or stopping the cleanup of neurotransmitters, or in some cases by faking a neurotransmitter, by mimicking its effects.

兴奋剂会增加神经递质的作用效果,有可能是通过释放更多的神经递质而实现,也可能是通过阻止神经递质的排出而实现,也有时候是通过伪造神经递质,通过模仿神经递质的效果来实现的

Well instead of forming droplets like fat they arrange in a very particular way, they form these structures that are called self-assembled structures because they occur naturally, because of properties of the lipids.

Now, neurotransmitters become interesting because a lot of psychopharmacology, both of the medical sort and the recreational sort, consists of fiddling with neurotransmitters and so you could see this through some examples.

神经递质非常的有意思,因为很多类型的精神药理学,不论是医疗类的还是消遣类的,都在研究对神经递质的控制,所以你们可以通过些例子来了解这一点

another thing that you'd find if you looked inside the axon terminals of any of these pre-synaptic membranes, you'd find lots of vesicles or some membrane bound compartments that contain special chemicals called neurotransmitters.

But since we are only looking at enough of the problem of identity to get to the question that we really want to think about, the nature of personal identity across time, I'm not going to pursue that.

但由于我们只是,通过质的问题,来讨论,我们真正关注的问题，也就是贯穿时间的人格同一性，所以我不讨论那些。
