Induction of synapse formation by de novo neurotransmitter synthesis
Nature Communications, 2022 Neuronal communication relies on matching different neurostransmitter types with their appropriate receptors. The authors here demonstrate that release of a novel neurotransmitter from presynaptic terminals can induce both the accumulation and activation

Mechanism of Allosteric Modulation of the Cys-loop Receptors
Pharmaceuticals, 2010 The cys-loop receptor family is a major family of neurotransmitter-operated ion channels. They play important roles in fast synaptic transmission, controlling neuronal excitability, and brain function.

Glutamate at the Vertebrate Neuromuscular Junction: From Modulation to Neurotransmission
Cells, 2019 Although acetylcholine is the major neurotransmitter operating at the skeletal neuromuscular junction of many invertebrates and of vertebrates, glutamate participates in modulating cholinergic transmission and plastic changes in the last.

Transcriptome of the female synganglion of the black-legged tick Ixodes scapularis (Acari: Ixodidae) with comparison between Illumina and 454 systems. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Illumina and 454 pyrosequencing were used to characterize genes from the synganglion of female Ixodes scapularis. GO term searching success for biological processes was similar for samples sequenced by both methods.

Table_1_Potential Therapeutic Targeting Neurotransmitter Receptors in Diabetes.docx
, 2022 Neurotransmitters are signaling molecules secreted by neurons to coordinate communication and proper function among different sections in the central neural system (CNS) by binding with different receptors.

Altered expression of genes encoding neurotransmitter receptors in GnRH neurons of proestrous mice
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016 Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons play a key role in the central regulation of reproduction. In proestrous female mice, estradiol triggers the pre-ovulatory GnRH surge, however, its impact on the expression of neurotransmitter receptor genes ...
