A population of immature cerebellar parallel fibre synapses are insensitive to adenosine but are inhibited by hypoxia [PDF]
The purine adenosine plays an important role in a number of physiological and pathological processes and is neuroprotective during hypoxia and ischemia.

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.

Quantification of the density of cooperative neighboring synapses required to evoke endocannabinoid signaling [PDF]
The spatial pattern of synapse activation may impact on synaptic plasticity. This applies to the synaptically-evoked endocannabinoid-mediated short-term depression at the parallel fiber (PF) to Purkinje cell synapse, the occurrence of which requires ...

Structure-function analysis on the level of individual synapses [PDF]
Excitatory synapses in the mammalian brain are made on small protrusions of the postsynaptic cell called dendritic spines. Dendritic spines are highly variable in their morphology and in their microanatomy (e.g. presence of subsynaptic organelles). It is

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by the accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) and the loss of synapses. Aggregation of the cellular prion protein (PrPC) by Aβ oligomers induced synapse damage in cultured neurons.

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.
