Aligning a Synapse [PDF]

Neuron, 2017
Synaptic communication requires alignment of transmitter release sites with transmitter receptors. In this issue of Neuron, Wang et al. (2017) show that α2δ4 subunits link calcium channels to a trans-synaptic complex with glutamate receptors at the visual system's first synapse.

Boltzmann energy-based image analysis demonstrates that extracellular domain size differences explain protein segregation at immune synapses [PDF]

, 2011
Immune synapses formed by T and NK cells both show segregation of the integrin ICAM1 from other proteins such as CD2 (T cell) or KIR (NK cell).

Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-Anchored Immunoglobulin Superfamily Cell Adhesion Molecules and Their Role in Neuronal Development and Synapse Regulation

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2017
Immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF) cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are cell surface glycoproteins that not only mediate interactions between neurons but also between neurons and other cells in the nervous system.

Drosophila gustatory projections are segregated by taste modality and connectivity

eLife, 2022
Gustatory sensory neurons detect caloric and harmful compounds in potential food and convey this information to the brain to inform feeding decisions. To examine the signals that gustatory neurons transmit and receive, we reconstructed gustatory axons ...

A Review of Graphene‐Based Memristive Neuromorphic Devices and Circuits

Advanced Intelligent Systems, 2023
As data processing volume increases, the limitations of traditional computers and the need for more efficient computing methods become evident. Neuromorphic computing mimics the brain's low‐power and high‐speed computations, making it crucial in the era ...

The Versatile Synapse [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1984
ABSTRACT‘Typically’ chemical synaptic transmission takes place when an influx of calcium ions during a presynaptic nerve impulse triggers exocytosis of neurotransmitter substance from synaptic vesicles. The neurotransmitter diffuses across the synaptic cleft and occupies receptors embedded in the subsynaptic membrane.

Gap junctions fine-tune ganglion cell signals to equalize response kinetics within a given electrically coupled array

iScience
Summary: Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) summate inputs and forward a spike train code to the brain in the form of either maintained spiking (sustained) or a quickly decaying brief spike burst (transient).

SynEM, automated synapse detection for connectomics

eLife, 2017
Nerve tissue contains a high density of chemical synapses, about 1 per µm3 in the mammalian cerebral cortex. Thus, even for small blocks of nerve tissue, dense connectomic mapping requires the identification of millions to billions of synapses. While the
