Descriptor	aminoácidos excitadores
Scope note:	Aminoácidos endógenos liberados de neuronas como neurotransmisores excitadores. El ácido glutámico es el neurotransmisor excitador más común en el cerbero. Se ha considerado durante muchos que el ácido aspártico es un transmisor excitador, pero no está clara la extensión de su papel como transmisor.
