Normalization of large-scale behavioural data collected from zebrafish [PDF]
Many contemporary neuroscience experiments utilize high-throughput approaches to simultaneously collect behavioural data from many animals. The resulting data are often complex in structure and are subjected to systematic biases, which require new ...

Ring-like Oligomers of Synaptotagmins and Related C2 Domain Proteins [PDF]
We recently reported that the C2AB portion of Synaptotagmin 1 (Syt1) could self-assemble into Ca2+-sensitive ring-like oligomers on membranes, which could potentially regulate neurotransmitter release.

Genomic Landscape of High‐Altitude Adaptation in East African Mountain Honey Bees (Apis mellifera)
Highland and lowland honey bees in East Africa exhibit distinct phenotypes despite low overall genetic differentiation. To investigate this further, we sampled honey bees from a mountain system in Uganda (red circle) and compared them with samples from Kenya.

Presynaptic proteins complexin-I and complexin-II differentially influence cognitive function in early and late stages of Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Progressive accumulation of Alzheimer's disease-related pathology is associated with cognitive dysfunction. Differences in cognitive reserve may contribute to individual differences in cognitive function in the presence of comparable neuropathology. The protective effects of cognitive reserve could contribute differentially in early versus late stages ...

Acrosomal exocytosis (AE) is an intracellular multipoint fusion reaction of the sperm plasma membrane (PM) with the outer acrosomal membrane (OAM). This unique exocytotic event enables the penetration of the sperm through the zona pellucida of the oocyte.

Calcium-evoked release of neurotransmitters from synaptic vesicles (SVs) is catalysed by SNARE proteins. The predominant view is that, at rest, complete assembly of SNARE complexes is inhibited (‘clamped’) by synaptotagmin and complexin molecules ...

The Ins and Outs of miRNA-Mediated Gene Silencing during Neuronal Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]
Neuronal connections through specialized junctions, known as synapses, create circuits that underlie brain function. Synaptic plasticity, i.e., structural and functional changes to synapses, occurs in response to neuronal activity and is a critical ...

Abstract Early genetic studies have suggested that body size in rabbits can be considered a quantitative trait. Several rabbit breeds can be distinguished based on body size, including a few dwarf breeds differentiated by other morphological characteristics.

Synaptic Vesicle Recycling at the Developing Presynapse
During presynaptic development, the coupling between calcium influx and synaptic vesicles (SVs) tightens with maturity, transitioning from microdomain to nanodomain. In immature neurons, spontaneous SV exocytosis is the dominant SV fusion mode, whereas SV fusion is mostly evoked by action potential firing in mature presynapses.
