Illustration showing a potential way in which polyphenols may affect neurotransmission. The process of ACh formation occurs briefly before it is broken down by AChE, ultimately leading to the transmission of neurotransmitters to postsynaptic neurons. The inhibition of these enzymes occurs when polyphenols bind to the active sites of AChE or BChE.
