Neurotransmitters and Neuromodulators [PDF]

open access: yesActa geneticae medicae et gemellologiae, 1974
In the central nervous system, besides the neurotransmitters, the occurrence of substances which modify neuronal excitability has been proposed. Since their effect is a matter of modulating neuronal responsiveness, these substances may be called neuromodulators.Examples of neurotransmitters or putative neurotransmitters in the central nervous system ...

Cholinergic suppression: A postsynaptic mechanism of long-term associative learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Food avoidance learning in the mollusc Pleurobranchaea entails reduction in the responsiveness of key brain interneurons in the feeding neural circuitry, the paracerebral feeding command interneurons (PCNs), to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (AcCho).

Cloning, expression, and localization of a rat brain high-affinity glycine transporter [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
A cDNA clone encoding a glycine transporter has been isolated from rat brain by a combined PCR and plaque-hybridization strategy. mRNA synthesized from this clone (designated GLYT1) directs the expression of sodium-and chloride-dependent, high-affinity ...

Single-Cell Transcriptomic Reveals Dual and Multi-Transmitter Use in Neurons Across Metazoans

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021
Neurotransmitter expression is widely used as a criterion for classifying neurons. It was initially thought that neurons express a single type of neurotransmitter, a phenomenon commonly recognized as Dale's principle: “one neuron, one transmitter ...

Maturation of a central brain flight circuit in Drosophila requires Fz2/Ca2+ signaling

open access: yeseLife, 2015
The final identity of a differentiated neuron is determined by multiple signaling events, including activity dependent calcium transients. Non-canonical Frizzled2 (Fz2) signaling generates calcium transients that determine neuronal polarity, neuronal ...

Inhibition of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier protects from excitotoxic neuronal death. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Glutamate is the dominant excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, but under conditions of metabolic stress it can accumulate to excitotoxic levels.

A transsynaptic nanocolumn aligns neurotransmitter release to receptors

open access: yesNature, 2016
Synaptic transmission is maintained by a delicate, sub-synaptic molecular architecture, and even mild alterations in synapse structure drive functional changes during experience-dependent plasticity and pathological disorders. Key to this architecture is

An in vivo biosensor for neurotransmitter release and in situ receptor activity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Tools from molecular biology, combined with in vivo optical imaging techniques, provide new mechanisms for noninvasively observing brain processes. Current approaches primarily probe cell-based variables, such as cytosolic calcium or membrane potential ...

Identification of the Nerve-Cancer Cross-Talk-Related Prognostic Gene Model in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
The incidence of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) is increasing year by year. The nerve is an important component of the tumor microenvironment, which has a wide range of cross-talk with tumor cells and immune cells, especially in highly ...

Modeling Fault Propagation Paths in Power Systems: A New Framework Based on Event SNP Systems With Neurotransmitter Concentration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
To reveal fault propagation paths is one of the most critical studies for the analysis of power system security; however, it is rather dif cult. This paper proposes a new framework for the fault propagation path modeling method of power systems based ...
