The clinical promise of biomarkers of synapse damage or loss in Alzheimer’s disease
Synapse damage and loss are fundamental to the pathophysiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and lead to reduced cognitive function. The goal of this review is to address the challenges of forging new clinical development approaches for AD therapeutics ...

Syncrip/hnRNP Q is required for activity-induced Msp300/Nesprin-1 expression and new synapse formation. [PDF]
Memory and learning involve activity-driven expression of proteins and cytoskeletal reorganization at new synapses, requiring posttranscriptional regulation of localized mRNA a long distance from corresponding nuclei.

Glycobiology of the synapse [PDF]
Synapses are the fundamental units of connectivity that link together the nervous system. Lectin studies from 30 years ago suggested that specific glycans are concentrated at neuromuscular synapses in the peripheral nervous system and at excitatory synapses in the brain.

Autophagy controls the induction and developmental decline of NMDAR-LTD through endocytic recycling
NMDA receptor-dependent long-term depression (NMDAR-LTD) is a form of synaptic plasticity mediated by reduced recycling of AMPA receptors to the plasma membrane.

Given the significance of validating reliable tests for the early detection of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), this systematic review aims to summarize available evidence of neuroimaging and neurophysiological changes in high-risk infants to improve ASD ...

One reason we learn and remember is because synapses, the places where axons and dendrites meet, undergo experience-dependent changes whose long-lasting nature may underlie the formation and persistence of memory. Indeed, neurons use these morphological and biochemical alterations to distinguish experienced (i.e., stimulated) from naive (unstimulated ...

Effects of Plasmin on von Willebrand Factor and Platelets: A Narrative Review
Plasmin is the major fibrinolytic protease responsible for dissolving thrombi by cleavage of its primary substrate fibrin. In addition, emerging evidence points to other roles of plasmin: (1) as a back-up for ADAMTS13 in proteolysis of ultra-large von ...

The ciliary machinery is repurposed for T cell immune synapse trafficking of LCK [PDF]
Upon engagement of the T cell receptor with an antigen-presenting cell, LCK initiates TCR signaling by phosphorylating its activation motifs. However, the mechanism of LCK activation specifically at the immune synapse is a major question.

IgSF21 promotes differentiation of inhibitory synapses via binding to neurexin2α
Molecular mechanisms regulating the development of inhibitory synapses are poorly understood. Here the authors show that IgSF21 interacts with neurexin2α to induce presynaptic differentiation of inhibitory synapses, and that mice lacking IgSF21 exhibit ...

Thrombin generation in low plasma volumes
Accurate thrombin generation determination by calibrated automated thrombinography can be sustained when reducing the plasma and reagent volumes up to half, but not for higher reductions or plasma dilutions.
