Quantification of the density of cooperative neighboring synapses required to evoke endocannabinoid signaling [PDF]
, 2014 The spatial pattern of synapse activation may impact on synaptic plasticity. This applies to the synaptically-evoked endocannabinoid-mediated short-term depression at the parallel fiber (PF) to Purkinje cell synapse, the occurrence of which requires ...

Connexin36 Expression in the Mammalian Retina: A Multiple-Species Comparison
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017 Much knowledge about interconnection of human retinal neurons is inferred from results on animal models. Likewise, there is a lack of information on human retinal electrical synapses/gap junctions (GJ).

Cell Reports, 2020 Summary: Our understanding of nervous system function is limited by our ability to identify and manipulate neuronal subtypes within intact circuits. We show that the Gbx2CreERT2-IRES-EGFP mouse line labels two amacrine cell (AC) subtypes in the mouse ...

Immuno-electrophysiology on Neuromuscular Junctions of Drosophila Third Instar Larva
Bio-Protocol, 2021 Alterations in synaptic transmission are critical early events in neuromuscular disorders. However, reliable methodologies to analyze the functional organization of the neuromuscular synapses are still needed. This manuscript provides a detailed protocol

Electrical Synapses in Basal Ganglia
Reviews in the Neurosciences, 2007 The basal ganglia (BG) provide a major integrative system of the forebrain involved in the organization of goal-directed behaviour. Pathological alteration of BG function leads to major motor and cognitive impairments such as observed in Parkinson's disease.

Long-term potentiation in an innexin-based electrical synapse
Scientific Reports, 2018 Electrical synapses are formed by two unrelated gap junction protein families, the primordial innexins (invertebrates) or the connexins (vertebrates). Although molecularly different, innexin- and connexin-based electrical synapses are strikingly similar ...

Connexins in neurons and glia: targets for intervention in disease and injury
Neural Regeneration Research, 2015 Both neurons and glia throughout the central nervous system are organized into networks by gap junctions. Among glia, gap junctions facilitate metabolic homeostasis and intercellular communication.

A population of immature cerebellar parallel fibre synapses are insensitive to adenosine but are inhibited by hypoxia [PDF]
, 2011 The purine adenosine plays an important role in a number of physiological and pathological processes and is neuroprotective during hypoxia and ischemia.

The Role of Retinoic Acid in the Formation and Modulation of Invertebrate Electrical Synapses [PDF]
, 2023 Communication between cells in the nervous system is dependent upon structures known as synapses. Synapses are broadly characterized as either chemical or electrical in nature, owing to the type of signals that are transmitted across them.
