Abstract figure legend During development, Intersectin‐1 (Itsn1) translocates near voltage‐gated calcium channels (VGCCs) to enhance Ca2+‐dependent replenishment of readily releasable synaptic vesicles (SVs). In the presynaptic terminal, SVs undergo a cycle involving formation (step 1), docking (step 2), exocytosis (step 3), endocytosis (step 4) and ...

Sphingosine‐1‐phosphate activates LRRC8 volume‐regulated anion channels through Gβγ signalling
Abstract figure legend Sphingosine‐1‐phosphate (S1P) binds to Gi protein‐coupled receptor S1PR1. Upon S1PR1 activation, Gβγ is released from the Gαi‐Gβγ heterotrimer, allowing it to recruit phospholipase Cβ (PLCβ) to the plasma membrane. PLCβ cleaves phosphatidylinositol‐4,5‐bisphosphate (PIP2) into inositol trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG).

Persistence of quantal synaptic vesicle recycling in virtual absence of dynamins
Abstract figure legend Figure depicts the key finding from this study. While loss of all dynamins severely debilitates synaptic vesicle retrieval following repetitive activity, retrieval and recycling of individual synaptic vesicles following spontaneous fusion or sparse stimulation are minimally affected.

Abstract figure legend This study investigated the role of AXIN1 and AXIN2 in regulating skeletal muscle AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) and mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signalling and glucose uptake. Although AXIN1 has been proposed as a key scaffold linking energy sensing to catabolic and anabolic signalling pathways in cell

Astroglial CB1 Reveal Sex‐Specific Synaptic Effects of Amphetamine
Main Points Astroglial CB1 mediate long‐term depression in the NAc through purine release. Amphetamine occludes LTD in male mice by inducing the saturation of A1 receptors. Astroglial CB1 mediate behavioral amphetamine effects in males, but not in females.
