MSH: Cell surface receptors that bind GLYCINE with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behavior of cells. Glycine receptors in the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM have an intrinsic chloride channel and are usually inhibitory.,CSP: glycine and GABA are the 2 major inhibitory neurotransmitters of vertebrate CNS, GABA in the brain and glycine in the spinal cord; both act through chloride channel receptors and thus membrane hyperpolarization.
