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

Molecular Mechanisms of Fast Neurotransmitter Release.
Annual Review of Biophysics, 2018 This review summarizes current knowledge of synaptic proteins that are central to synaptic vesicle fusion in presynaptic active zones, including SNAREs (soluble N-ethylmaleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptors), synaptotagmin, complexin ...

Glutamate as a neurotransmitter in the brain: review of physiology and pathology.
Journal of NutriLife, 2000 Glutamate is the principal excitatory neurotransmitter in brain. Our knowledge of the glutamatergic synapse has advanced enormously in the last 10 years, primarily through application of molecular biological techniques to the study of glutamate receptors

Tinnitus and stress – from bedside to bench and back
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2012 The aim of this review is to focus the attention of clinicians and basic researchers on the association between emotional stress and tinnitus. Although tinnitus is an auditory symptom, its onset and progression often associates with emotional strain ...

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Neural progenitor cells (NPCs) play a central role during the development and evolution of the mammalian neocortex. Precise temporal and spatial control of NPC proliferation by a concert of cell-intrinsic and cell-extrinsic factors is essential for the ...

Immunohistochemical Characterization of the Nervous System of Culex pipiens (Diptera, Culicidae)
Biology, 2022 Arthropod-borne diseases represent one of the greatest infection-related threats as a result of climate change and globalization. Repeatedly, arbovirus-infected mosquitoes show behavioral changes whose underlying mechanisms are still largely unknown, but

Quantitative Analysis Linking Inner Hair Cell Voltage Changes and Postsynaptic Conductance Change: A Modelling Study [PDF]
, 2015 This paper presents a computational model which estimates the postsynaptic conductance change of mammalian Type I afferent peripheral process when airborne acoustic waves impact on the tympanic membrane. A model of the human auditory periphery is used to

Neurotransmitter identity is acquired in a lineage-restricted manner in the Drosophila CNS
eLife, 2019 The vast majority of the adult fly ventral nerve cord is composed of 34 hemilineages, which are clusters of lineally related neurons. Neurons in these hemilineages use one of the three fast-acting neurotransmitters (acetylcholine, GABA, or glutamate) for
