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.

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 ...

Postsynaptic activity of inhibitory neurons evokes hemodynamic fMRI responses
NeuroImage, 2021 Functional MRI responses are localized to the synaptic sites of evoked inhibitory neurons, but it is unknown whether, or by what mechanisms, these neurons initiate functional hyperemia.

Molecular model of postsynaptic potential. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1975 A molecular model of the excitatory postsynaptic membrane is given in terms of two biochemical cycles intimately associated: an acetylcholine cycle and a calcium cycle. The acetylcholine controls the Na ionophores while calcium ions control the tk ionophore.

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 ...
