Thermodynamic Efficiency of Somatic Exocytosis of Serotonin
Frontiers in Physiology, 2019 Through somatic exocytosis neurons liberate immense amounts of transmitter molecules that modulate the functioning of the nervous system. A stream of action potentials triggers an ATP-dependent transport of transmitter-containing vesicles to the plasma ...

Ibrain, EarlyView.Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) remains a major clinical challenge, with central sensitization considered an important pathological mechanism in its occurrence and persistence. This review focuses on spinal astrocytes and microglia, systematically summarizing the pathological mechanisms of spinal glial cells involved in CIPN caused by

Organization, control and function of extrasynaptic NMDA receptors [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2014 N -methyl d -aspartate receptors (NMDARs) exist in different forms owing to multiple combinations of subunits that can assemble into a functional receptor. In addition, they are located not only at synapses but also at extrasynaptic sites.

Pathophysiological role of extrasynaptic GABAA receptors in typical absence epilepsy [PDF]
, 2011 GABA is the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian CNS. It acts via two classes of receptors, the GABAA, a ligand gated ion channel (ionotropic receptor) and the metabotropic G-protein coupled GABAB receptor.

, 2016 NMDA receptors are ion channels activated by the neurotransmitter glutamate in the mammalian brain and are important in synaptic function and plasticity, but are also found in extrasynaptic locations and influence neuronal excitability.

Epilepsia, EarlyView.The K⁺/Cl− cotransporter (KCC2) limits induced ictal‐like events and their spread in the supragranular layer of human neocortical slices from the seizure‐propagation zone of temporal lobe epilepsy patients. Cl⁻ extrusion is present in supragranular pyramidal neurons but limited under high somatic Cl⁻ load.

Crosstalk Between Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor And N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptor Signaling In Neurons [PDF]
, 2008 Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in brain exerting prosurvival effect on neurons via N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) signaling under physiological conditions.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend AII amacrine cells are an important class of interneuron in the vertebrate retina. In addition to traditional chemical synapses these cells communicate with other neurons and with each other via electrical synapses. (A) Electrical synapse strength between AII amacrine cells was measured using dual whole‐cell patch‐clamp ...

GABA potency at GABAA receptors found in synaptic and extrasynaptic zones
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2012 The potency of GABA is vitally important for its primary role in activating GABAA receptors and acting as an inhibitory neurotransmitter. Although numerous laboratories have presented information, directly or indirectly, on GABA potency, it is often ...

Nanoscopic Mapping of the Extracellular Space in Amyloid Plaque‐rich Cortex
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, 5 January 2026.The extracellular space and diffusion around amyloid plaques are examined using shadow imaging and single‐particle tracking. Increased diffusivity is found near plaques, extracellular matrix alterations, and plaque core penetrability that varies with amyloid phenotype.
