By releasing substances from the cell bodies, dendrites and axons, neurons modulate the function of the nervous system. Santiago Ramón y Cajal, who pioneered
investigations of the microscopic structure of the brain, could not have seen this release. (This image was prepared by F. F. De-Miguel from an original digitized drawing by
Santiago Ramón y Cajal, belonging to Legado Cajal. Instituto Cajal (CSIC), Madrid. Colours were added digitally.)
