Adaptations to hypoxia in the vertebrate retina
Abstract figure legend Most animals, including mammals, are susceptible to the damaging effects of hypoxia or ischaemia, where the result is neuronal cell death in the brain. By contrast, some neurons of the mammalian retina are less sensitive to hypoxia. In both brain and retina, neurons may survive if first preconditioned with ischaemia.

The mysterious middlemen making your vision pop: understanding the function of amacrine cells
Abstract figure legend This review aims to illustrate the diversity and function of amacrine cells in the retina. The diversity of amacrine cell subtypes is depicted based on morphology, stratification and neurotransmitter expression, along with their synaptic connectivity with bipolar and ganglion cells, emphasizing inhibitory and modulatory roles ...

Developmental synapse elimination is crucial for shaping mature neural circuits. In the neonatal mouse cerebellum, Purkinje cells (PCs) receive excitatory synaptic inputs from multiple climbing fibers (CFs) and synapses from all but one CF are eliminated

Normal aging is generally characterized by a slow decline of cognitive abilities albeit with marked individual differences. Several animal models have been studied to explore the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon.

Certain ligands of pattern recognition receptors can induce a rapid increase in albumin permeability across a podocyte monolayer that can be seen in 1 h, but activation of TRPC6 for up to 24 h does not mimick this process. However, continuous TRPC6 activation for 24 h results in nephrin ectodomain shedding that calcineurin activation and ...

The locus coeruleus (LC)–norepinephrine (NE) system significantly influences the structure and function of the neurovascular unit (NVU). The activation degree and firing patterns of LC–NE neurons, as well as the release amount and action sites of NE, profoundly impact the neurons, glial cells, and cerebrovascular components of the NVU.

Inhibitory effects of high extracellular l-glutamate concentrations on skeletal myogenesis
l-glutamate (Glu) is accumulated abundantly in skeletal muscle cells and plays a central role in energy production, amino acid metabolism, and protein synthesis.
