ATP as a presynaptic modulator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
© 2000 Elsevier Science Inc.There is considerable evidence that ATP acts as a fast transmitter or co-transmitter in autonomic and sensory nerves mostly through activation of ionotropic P2X receptors but also through metabotropic P2Y receptors. By analogy,

Inducing chronic excitotoxicity in the mouse spinal cord to investigate lower motor neuron degeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2016
We report the methodology for the chronic delivery of an excitotoxin to the mouse spinal cord via surgically implanted osmotic mini-pumps. Previous studies have investigated the effect of chronic application of excitotoxins in the rat, however there has ...

Moving forward with the neuromuscular junction [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, 2017
AbstractThe neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is indispensable for survival. This synapse between motoneurons and skeletal muscle fibers allows posture, movement and respiration. Therefore, its dysfunction creates pathologies than can be lethal. The molecular mechanisms of NMJ development and maintenance are the subject of intensive studies.

Neuromuscular organization and aminergic modulation of contractions in the Drosophila ovary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background: The processes by which eggs develop in the insect ovary are well characterized. Despite a large number of Drosophila mutants that cannot lay eggs, the way that the egg is moved along the reproductive tract from ovary to uterus is less well ...
