Short-term synaptic plasticity.

Annual Review of Physiology, 2002
Synaptic transmission is a dynamic process. Postsynaptic responses wax and wane as presynaptic activity evolves. This prominent characteristic of chemical synaptic transmission is a crucial determinant of the response properties of synapses and, in turn,

Astrocyte control of synaptic transmission and neurovascular coupling.

Physiological Reviews, 2006
From a structural perspective, the predominant glial cell of the central nervous system, the astrocyte, is positioned to regulate synaptic transmission and neurovascular coupling: the processes of one astrocyte contact tens of thousands of synapses ...

Synaptic Transmission

1980
Publisher Summary This chapter presents an overview of synaptic transmission. Synaptic transmission is the process at synapses by which a chemical signal (a transmitter) is released from one neuron and is diffuses to other neurons or target cells where it generates a signal that excites, inhibits, or modulates cellular activity.

Long-lasting neurotrophin-induced enhancement of synaptic transmission in the adult hippocampus

Science, 1995
The neurotrophins are signaling factors important for the differentiation and survival of distinct neuronal populations during development. To test whether the neurotrophins also function in the mature nervous system, the effects of brain-derived ...

Phosphoinositides and Synaptic Transmission

1996
The isolation of a “diphosphoinositide” fraction from ox brain by Folch (1949) and the observation by Dawson (1954) that radioactive phosphate was rapidly incorporated into its lipids laid the foundations of our present knowledge of the brain phosphoinositides.

Synaptic Transmission

2009
Publisher Summary This chapter defines the number of methods to characterize the processes surrounding synaptic transmission, in particular the release and diffusion of neurotransmitters. It also introduces handles for graphic objects to update images dynamically.

Synaptic transmission without calcium

Neuroscience Research Supplements, 1986
Abstract Rods turn light into a signal that is transmitted across electrical synapses made with neighboring rods and chemical synapses made with horizontal and bipolar cells. Several currents traversing a rod's inner-segment membrane modify the signal and influence synaptic transmission. One, a voltage-activated calcium current, has two functions: 1)

Elementary components of synaptic transmission

The Science of Nature, 1979
The analysis of chemical transmission at synapses, in particular at the neuromuscular junction, has proceeded from the cellular to the molecular level. Gradual refinements in electric recording technique have brought to light new features, first the quantal delivery of the transmitter substance, in multimolecular packets, from the nerve endings, and ...

Synaptic transmission

2014
This chapter will use a number of methods to characterize the processes surrounding synaptic transmission, in particular the release and diffusion of neurotransmitters. This chapter will also introduce handles for graphic objects to update images dynamically.
