Definition
English
:
Nerve fibers
which project from sympathetic
ganglia
to
synapses
on
target organs
. Sympathetic postganglionic fibers use
norepinephrine
as transmitter, except for those innervating eccrine
sweat glands
(and possibly some
blood vessels
) which use
acetylcholine
. They may also release peptide cotransmitters.
