The Mechanism of Synaptic Transmission [PDF]

open access: possible, 1961
In the twenty five years since my previous review was published in the Ergebnisse der Physiologie (Eccles 1936), the subject of synaptic transmission has been transformed. The enormous advances in knowledge and understanding have been brought about largely as a result of the microtechniques: electron-microscopy; electrical investigations by ...

Synaptic Transmission in the Cockroach

Nature, 1958
ALTHOUGH the synaptic transmission across the last abdominal ganglion of the cockroach has been studied by several workers1–3, the knowledge obtained so far seems to be less complete than for synapses in vertebrate animals. In the present investigation electrical phenomena associated with the synaptic transmission across this ganglion were analysed ...

The Synaptic Transmission

2013
Let a synapse be an open three-compartmental system. Compartment 1 comprises presynaptic elements where synthesis and storage of a neurotransmitter or a hormone occurs. For example, in case of cholinergic or adrenergic synapses it corresponds morphologically to a nerve terminal of the unmyelinated axon.

Excitation and Synaptic Transmission

Annual Review of Physiology, 1962
The main properties of nerve and muscle cells to be considered in this section are the differences in potential and in ion contents between the interior of the cell and its normal environment, and excitability. The most widely accepted model used to explain these properties is that of a mem­ brane of limited permeability separating the internal and ...

TIMING OF SYNAPTIC TRANSMISSION

Annual Review of Physiology, 1999
▪ Abstract  Many behaviors require rapid and precisely timed synaptic transmission. These include the determination of a sound's direction by detecting small interaural time differences and visual processing, which relies on synchronous activation of large populations of neurons.

Endocannabinoid-mediated control of synaptic transmission.

Physiological Reviews, 2009
The discovery of cannabinoid receptors and subsequent identification of their endogenous ligands (endocannabinoids) in early 1990s have greatly accelerated research on cannabinoid actions in the brain.

Synaptic Transmission

1995
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses synaptic transmission, mediated by chemical neurotransmitter substances. The chapter focuses on chemical synaptic transmission, including another form of signal transfer referred to as electrical transmission, which is mediated by the gap junctions.

Synaptic transmission in the retina

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1991
A recent highlight in the study of the retina has been the publication of evidence that the response of the ON bipolar cells is generated by a cGMP-mediated second messenger system. This GTP-binding protein mechanism is activated by the binding of glutamate, the photoreceptor neurotransmitter, to the 2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate (APB) class of receptor.

Gangliosides and Synaptic Transmission

1980
Gangliosides usually make up only a small proportion of the lipids constituting the plasma cell membrane. It is also characteristic that the concentration of gangliosides and their pattern in a given organ vary widely with species and between different organs in a species.
