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

Neuromorphic functionality of ferroelectric domain walls
Mimicking and replicating the function of biological synapses with engineered materials is a challenge for the 21st century. The field of neuromorphic computing has recently seen significant developments, and new concepts are being explored. One of these

The Immunological Synapse [PDF]
AbstractThe molecular interactions underlying regulation of the immune response take place in a nanoscale gap between T cells and antigen-presenting cells, termed the immunological synapse. If these interactions are regulated appropriately, the host is defended against a wide range of pathogens and deranged host cells.

Structural basis of astrocytic Ca2+ signals at tripartite synapses
Astrocytic Ca2+ signals can be fast and local, supporting the idea that astrocytes have the ability to regulate single synapses. However, the anatomical basis of such specific signaling remains unclear, owing to difficulties in resolving the spongiform ...

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