Abstract
Phospholipid molecules play an important role in synaptic function. They are, indeed, major components of synaptic vesicles and presynaptic plasma membranes. In cholinergic synapses, choline (Ch) phosphoglycerides could also act as possible donors of Ch since the axons do not synthesize this nitrogenous base in notable amounts.
