Clinical and functional studies of autoimmune disorders of neuromuscular transmission [PDF]
Inherited and acquired disorders of the neuromuscular junction are an important cause of muscle weakness and fatigability. In this thesis I focus on the autoimmune disorders of neuromuscular transmission.

Frontal lobe traumatic brain injury is associated with hyperactivity of an insular–orbitofrontal circuit in both patients and mice. By combination of integrating functional imaging, cell‐type–specific circuit manipulation, single‐cell transcriptomics, and whole‐cell recordings, this work identifies the downregulation of the potassium channel KCNC3 in ...

Under normal conditions, MACF1 interacts with Rab14 and facilitates KIF16B‐mediated FGFR vesicle trafficking along microtubules to the plasma membrane, thereby supporting BMSC differentiation. In contrast, chronic GC exposure suppresses MACF1 expression, disrupting this transport and causing intracellular FGFR retention, which blunts osteogenic ...

Impaired docking and recycling of synaptic vesicles in inherited lysosomal sphingolipidoses
Cognitive, memory, and learning impairments are common features of many lysosomal sphingolipidoses, yet the underlying synaptic mechanisms remain poorly defined. Here, we examined the impact of galactosylceramidase (GALC) deficiency on synaptic structure

Postsynaptic protein kinase a reduces neuronal excitability in response to increased synaptic excitation in the Drosophila CNS [PDF]
Previous work has identified a role for synaptic activity in the development of excitable properties of motoneurons in the Drosophila embryo. In this study the underlying mechanism that enables two such neurons, termed aCC and RP2, to respond to ...

Condensates at synapses organize synaptic vesicles (SVs) and are crucial for efficient neurotransmitter release, yet how RNA contributes to this mesoscale architecture remains poorly understood. Here we uncover that RNA modulates synapsin–driven condensates.

The role of complement in synaptic degeneration
Synapse loss is an early event of many neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer?s disease and Parkinson?s disease. The causes and mechanisms that underpin synapse dysfunction and degeneration are poorly understood.

Sleep deprivation increases levels of the synaptic density marker SV2A in the human brain.
Sleep is essential for synaptic homeostasis, a proposed mechanism whereby wakefulness leads to synaptic potentiation and sleep facilitates synaptic down-selection.

Acute Complexin Knockout Abates Spontaneous and Evoked Transmitter Release
Summary: SNARE-mediated synaptic vesicle (SV) fusion is controlled by multiple regulatory proteins that determine neurotransmitter release efficiency.
