Current Concepts in the Field of Neurochemical Mediation [PDF]
Chemical mediators involved in the integrative activities of the nervous system operate either at close range as neurohumors or over some distance as neurohormones. As will become evident, the distinction between neurohumoral and neurohormonal activities

Micromorphology of neurohypophysis of rats under experimental conditions [PDF]
The changes of the quantity of neurosecretory substance in neurohypophysis of rats under various experimental conditions are investigated. Comparing to the norm the quantity of neurosecretion after a long stay in the dark was larger. In animals subjected

Physiological Function and Characterization of TRPCs in Neurons
Ca2+ entry is essential for regulating vital physiological functions in all neuronal cells. Although neurons are engaged in multiple modes of Ca2+ entry that regulates variety of neuronal functions, we will only discuss a subset of specialized Ca2 ...

«The Brain as a Whole» Concept: Facilitating Approaches to Brain Death Understanding
James Bernat claimed that «the formulation of whole-brain death provides the most congruent map for our correct understanding of death». However, the author has recently proposed the categorization of another phrase: «brain as a whole (BAAW)».

Differential Maturation of the Two Regulated Secretory Pathways in Human iPSC-Derived Neurons
Neurons communicate by regulated secretion of chemical signals from synaptic vesicles (SVs) and dense-core vesicles (DCVs). Here, we investigated the maturation of these two secretory pathways in micro-networks of human iPSC-derived neurons.
