AMPA Receptor Trafficking for Postsynaptic Potentiation [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018 Long-term potentiation (LTP) of excitatory synaptic strength, which has long been considered a synaptic correlate for learning and memory, requires a fast recruitment of additional α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate (AMPA) receptors (AMPARs) to the postsynaptic sites.

Functional maps of neocortical local circuitry
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2007 This review aims to summarize data obtained with different techniques to provide a functional map of the local circuit connections made by neocortical neurones, a reference for those interested in cortical circuitry and the numerical information required

Modeling Calcium Dynamics and Inhibition Based Synaptic Plasticity in Dendritic Spines
Mathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2014 Inhibitory synapses through GABAergic channels not only change spine's calcium dynamics but also modulate postsynaptic current mediated through glutamate receptors.

Brain Dystrophin in Duchenne Dystrophy
Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 1995 To define the potential pathogenic role of dystrophin deficiency in the cognitive impairment characteristic of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), the protein in brain cortical synapses of an 8-year-old patient examined at autopsy and an age-matched ...

Retrograde Synaptic Signaling Mediated by K+ Efflux through Postsynaptic NMDA Receptors
Cell Reports, 2013 Synaptic NMDA receptors (NMDARs) carry inward Ca2+ current responsible for postsynaptic signaling and plasticity in dendritic spines. Whether the concurrent K+ efflux through the same receptors into the synaptic cleft has a physiological role is not ...

Impairment Mechanisms and Intervention Approaches for Aged Human Neuromuscular Junctions
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020 The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is a chemical synapse formed between a presynaptic motor neuron and a postsynaptic muscle cell. NMJs in most vertebrate species share many essential features; however, some differences distinguish human NMJs from others ...

GABAergic synaptic transmission regulates calcium influx during spike-timing dependent plasticity
Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2010 Coincident pre- and postsynaptic activity of hippocampal neurons alters the strength of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABAA)-mediated inhibition through a Ca2+-dependent regulation of cation-chloride cotransporters.
