Autophagy at the synapse [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience Letters, 2019
As the sites of communication between neurons, synapses depend upon precisely regulated protein-protein interactions to support neurotransmitter release and reception. Moreover, neuronal synapses typically exist great distances (i.e. up to meters) away from cell bodies, which are the sources of new proteins and the major sites of protein degradation ...

Connexin36 Expression in the Mammalian Retina: A Multiple-Species Comparison

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Much knowledge about interconnection of human retinal neurons is inferred from results on animal models. Likewise, there is a lack of information on human retinal electrical synapses/gap junctions (GJ).

Recent Progress of Optoelectronic and All‐Optical Neuromorphic Devices: A Comprehensive Review of Device Structures, Materials, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, 2021
Conventional von Neumann–based computing systems have inherent limitations such as high hardware complexity, relatively inferior energy efficiency, and low bandwidth.

Spatial representation of temporal information through spike timing dependent plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We suggest a mechanism based on spike time dependent plasticity (STDP) of synapses to store, retrieve and predict temporal sequences. The mechanism is demonstrated in a model system of simplified integrate-and-fire type neurons densely connected by STDP ...

Research Progress on the Application of Topological Phase Transition Materials in the Field of Memristor and Neuromorphic Computing

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Topological phase transition materials have strong coupling between their charge, spin orbitals, and lattice structure, which makes them have good electrical and magnetic properties, leading to promising applications in the fields of memristive devices ...

A population of immature cerebellar parallel fibre synapses are insensitive to adenosine but are inhibited by hypoxia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The purine adenosine plays an important role in a number of physiological and pathological processes and is neuroprotective during hypoxia and ischemia.

Homogeneous Spiking Neuromorphic System for Real-World Pattern Recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A neuromorphic chip that combines CMOS analog spiking neurons and memristive synapses offers a promising solution to brain-inspired computing, as it can provide massive neural network parallelism and density.

The Immunological Synapse

open access: yesAnnual Review of Immunology, 2001
The adaptive immune response is initiated by the interaction of T cell antigen receptors with major histocompatibility complex molecule-peptide complexes in the nanometer scale gap between a T cell and an antigen-presenting cell, referred to as an immunological synapse.

Transient oxytocin signaling primes the development and function of excitatory hippocampal neurons

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Beyond its role in parturition and lactation, oxytocin influences higher brain processes that control social behavior of mammals, and perturbed oxytocin signaling has been linked to the pathogenesis of several psychiatric disorders.
