Neuromodulation of Chemical Synaptic Transmission Driven by THz Photons
Postsynaptic currents of chemical synapse are modulated by multitudinous neurotransmitters, such as acetylcholine, dopamine, glutamate, and γ-aminobutyric acid, many of which have been used in the treatment of neurological diseases.

Human synapses show a wide temporal window for spike-timing-dependent plasticity
Throughout our lifetime, activity-dependent changes in neuronal connection strength enable the brain to refine neural circuits and learn based on experience.

Rethinking the Role of Normalization and Residual Blocks for Spiking Neural Networks
Biologically inspired spiking neural networks (SNNs) are widely used to realize ultralow-power energy consumption. However, deep SNNs are not easy to train due to the excessive firing of spiking neurons in the hidden layers.

Synaptic plasticity and cognitive function are disrupted in the absence of Lrp4. [PDF]
Lrp4, the muscle receptor for neuronal Agrin, is expressed in the hippocampus and areas involved in cognition. The function of Lrp4 in the brain, however, is unknown, as Lrp4-/- mice fail to form neuromuscular synapses and die at birth.

Preparation of Pre- and Post-synaptic Density Fraction from Mouse Cortex
The understanding of the organization of postsynaptic signaling systems at excitatory synapses has been aided by the identification of proteins in the postsynaptic density (PSD) fraction, a subcellular fraction enriched in structures with the morphology ...

Summary: Neurexins (NRXNs) are key presynaptic cell adhesion molecules that regulate synapse formation and function via trans-synaptic interaction with postsynaptic ligands.

Targeting the post-synaptic proteome has therapeutic potential for psychosis in Alzheimer Disease
Individuals with Alzheimer Disease who develop psychotic symptoms (AD + P) experience more rapid cognitive decline and have reduced indices of synaptic integrity relative to those without psychosis (AD-P).

Effects of guanidine on synaptic transmission in the spinal cord of the frog [PDF]
The effects of guanidine on motoneurons of the isolated frog spinal cord were studied by adding the drug to the solution bathing the cord during intracellular recording. Guanidine (5·10–4 M) did not alter the membrane potential of motoneurons.
