THALAMOCORTICAL SYNAPSES

Progress in Neurobiology, 1997
Thalamocortical synapses inform the cerebral neocortex about the external and internal worlds. The thalamus produces myriad thalamocortical pathways that vary in morphological, physiological, pharmacological and functional properties. All these features are of great importance for understanding how information is acquired, integrated, processed, stored

Ubiquitin and the synapse

Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2002
Post-translational modification by the attachment of ubiquitin seems to have a crucial role in regulating synaptic structure and function. By controlling the stability, activity and localization of target proteins, this versatile regulatory system can shape the pattern, activity and plasticity of synaptic connections.

[Immunological synapses and neuronal synapses].

Medecine sciences : M/S, 2003
The interface between two cells from the immune system has recently been coined "immunological synapse". The authors review recent findings concerning the structure of the synapse formed between T lymphocytes and antigen-presenting cells. T cells can be part of different synapses, depending on the antigen-presenting cell (B cell hybridoma, proteo-lipid

microRNAs at the synapse

Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2009
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as key modulators of post-transcriptional gene regulation in a plethora of tissues, including the nervous system. Recent evidence points to a widespread role for neural miRNAs at various stages of synaptic development, including dendritogenesis, synapse formation and synapse maturation.

Synapsable DNA

Journal of Molecular Biology, 1996
We describe a simple innovation that allows DNA double helices to stably bind one another at specific sites, with regulatable affinity, under physiological conditions. This type of DNA synapsis requires neither an unraveling of the participating duplexes not heteroduplex formation, and is achieved by the intermolecular dimerization of short blocks of ...

Synapse Ashes

Arts & Health
This poem explores the experience of a stroke through metaphorical and artistic imagery, employing the metaphor of a forest engulfed in fire to represent its sudden and destructive impact on the brain and body. Its evocative language is designed to resonate deeply with readers, providing both a powerful portrayal of the emotional impact and urgency of ...

Synapse elimination, the size principle, and Hebbian synapses

Journal of Neurobiology, 1995
AbstractSynapse elimination at the vertebrate neuromuscular junction reduces a polyinnervated population of muscle fibers to a monoinnervated state. The function of this developmental phenomenon (if any) is unproven. A theoretical analysis of Hebbian (correlation) rules connecting presynaptic and postsynaptic activity and synaptic strength at the ...

Synapse Regulation

Microglia are the resident immune cells of the brain. As such, they rapidly detect changes in normal brain homeostasis and accurately respond by fine-tuning in a tightly regulated manner their morphology, gene expression, and functional behavior. Depending on the nature of these changes, microglia can thicken and retract their processes, proliferate ...
