Neuromuscular synaptic transmission in aged ganglioside-deficient mice [PDF]
, 2011 Gangliosides are sialylated glycosphingolipids that are present in high density on neuronal membranes, especially at synapses, where they are assumed to play functional or modulating roles.

Synaptic Transmission: Kinetics of synaptic-vesicle recycling [PDF]
Current Biology, 1995 The kinetics of different steps in synaptic-vesicle recycling, including exocytosis, internalization and repriming, have recently been estimated in various types of living cell.

Journal of Neuroscience, 2016 Estradiol (E2) acutely potentiates glutamatergic synaptic transmission in the hippocampus of both male and female rats. Here, we investigated whether E2-induced synaptic potentiation occurs via presynaptic and/or postsynaptic mechanisms and which ...

eLife, 2017 Synaptic vesicle release properties vary between neuronal cell types, but in most cases the molecular basis of this heterogeneity is unknown. Here, we compare in vivo synaptic properties of two neuronal classes in the C.

Mean-field theory of a plastic network of integrate-and-fire neurons [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 81, 011907 (2010), 2009 We consider a noise driven network of integrate-and-fire neurons. The network evolves as result of the activities of the neurons following spike-timing-dependent plasticity rules. We apply a self-consistent mean-field theory to the system to obtain the mean activity level for the system as a function of the mean synaptic weight, which predicts a first ...

Hair Cell Transduction, Tuning, and Synaptic Transmission in the Mammalian Cochlea.
Comprehensive Physiology, 2017 Sound pressure fluctuations striking the ear are conveyed to the cochlea, where they vibrate the basilar membrane on which sit hair cells, the mechanoreceptors of the inner ear.

Presynaptic Rac1 controls synaptic strength through the regulation of synaptic vesicle priming
eLife, 2022 Synapses contain a limited number of synaptic vesicles (SVs) that are released in response to action potentials (APs). Therefore, sustaining synaptic transmission over a wide range of AP firing rates and timescales depends on SV release and replenishment.

Synaptic transmission and plasticity require AMPA receptor anchoring via its N-terminal domain
eLife, 2017 AMPA-type glutamate receptors (AMPARs) mediate fast excitatory neurotransmission and are selectively recruited during activity-dependent plasticity to increase synaptic strength.

NPY-mediated synaptic plasticity in the extended amygdala prioritizes feeding during starvation
Nature CommunicationsEfficient control of feeding behavior requires the coordinated adjustment of complex motivational and affective neurocircuits. Neuropeptides from energy-sensing hypothalamic neurons are potent feeding modulators, but how these endogenous signals shape ...

Synaptic Channel Modeling for DMC: Neurotransmitter Uptake and Spillover in the Tripartite Synapse [PDF]
, 2020 In Diffusive Molecular Communication (DMC), information is transmitted by diffusing molecules. Synaptic signaling, as a natural implementation of this paradigm, encompasses functional components that, once understood, can facilitate the development of synthetic DMC systems.
