One major difference between the use of peptides or non-peptides as transmitters is that
Transmission using peptides is faster than when using non-peptide transmitters
Peptidergic transmission is less dependent on Ca++
Peptides are synthesized in the cell body whereas non-peptides are synthesized in the terminal
Peptidergic transmission involves the use of microtubules while non-peptide transmission depends on active zones
Peptides are not stored in vesicles as are non-peptide transmitters
