Extrasynaptic receptors on cell bodies of neurons in central nervous system of the leech
1. A systematic study has been made of the sensitivity of identified sensory and motoneurons in the leech central nervous system to chemical transmitter substances. 2.

GABAAR isoform and subunit structural motifs determine synaptic and extrasynaptic receptor localisation [PDF]
GABAA receptors (GABAARs) are the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter receptors in the central nervous system. They control neuronal excitability by synaptic and tonic forms of inhibition mostly mediated by different receptor subtypes located in ...

Activation of extrasynaptic N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors causes neurodegeneration and cell death. The disease mechanism involves a pathological triad consisting of mitochondrial dysfunction, loss of integrity of neuronal structures and ...

Factors Influencing Short-term Synaptic Plasticity in the Avian Cochlear Nucleus Magnocellularis
Defined as reduced neural responses during high rates of activity, synaptic depression is a form of short-term plasticity important for the temporal filtering of sound.

Connectomics – the study of neural connectivity – is primarily concerned with the mapping and characterisation of wired synaptic links; however, it is well established that long-distance chemical signalling via extrasynaptic volume transmission is also ...

Movement initiation is preceded by bursting activity and increased dopamine release by substantia nigra pars compacta neurons. The participation of NMDARs is essential to the generation of bursts but the mechanisms regulating their level of activation ...

NMDARs in Alzheimer’s Disease: Between Synaptic and Extrasynaptic Membranes
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are glutamate receptors with key roles in synaptic communication and plasticity. The activation of synaptic NMDARs initiates plasticity and stimulates cell survival.

SummaryThe activation of N-methyl-D-aspartate-receptors (NMDARs) in synapses provides plasticity and cell survival signals, whereas NMDARs residing in the neuronal membrane outside synapses trigger neurodegeneration.
