Nanoscale-targeted patch-clamp recordings of functional presynaptic ion channels [PDF]

, 2013
Important modulatory roles have been attributed to presynaptic NMDA receptors (NMDARs) located on cerebellar interneuron terminals. Evidence supporting a presynaptic location includes an increase in the frequency of mini events following the application ...

Neuromorphic Devices and Computing for Sensing, Memory, and Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review introduces neuromorphic devices made from diverse materials. These devices mimic neuronal functions and architectures and, when integrated with artificial or biological computing, can form closed loops with neurons for pressure, optical, acoustic, and biochemical sensing and modulation.

Beyond the MUN domain, Munc13 controls priming and depriming of synaptic vesicles

Cell Reports
Summary: Synaptic vesicle docking and priming are dynamic processes. At the molecular level, SNAREs (soluble NSF attachment protein receptors), synaptotagmins, and other factors are critical for Ca2+-triggered vesicle exocytosis, while disassembly ...

Synaptic vesicle dynamics.

, 2013
(A) The axon of a presynaptic neuron (orange) makes synaptic contacts onto a postsynaptic neuron (green). (B) Synaptic vesicles in the synaptic terminal of the presynaptic neuron contain neurotransmitter molecules.

A Multidimensional Engineering Strategy Reprograms Microglia via Targeted and Sustained‐Release Extracellular Vesicles for Spinal Cord Injury Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multifunctional EV‐based nanoplatform (Ang‐TEVs@Gel) was engineered via preconditioning, surface targeting, and ROS‐responsive hydrogel encapsulation to reprogram microglia. This system restored autophagy via miR‐664a‐3p/PIK3CA axis, cleared myelin debris, resolved neuroinflammation, and promoted axon remyelination, ultimately achieving robust motor ...

Otoferlin acts as a Ca2+ sensor for vesicle fusion and vesicle pool replenishment at auditory hair cell ribbon synapses

eLife, 2017
Hearing relies on rapid, temporally precise, and sustained neurotransmitter release at the ribbon synapses of sensory cells, the inner hair cells (IHCs).

Differential localization of glutamate receptor subunits at the drosophila neuromuscular junction [PDF]

, 2004
The subunit composition of postsynaptic neurotransmitter receptors is a key determinant of synaptic physiology. Two glutamate receptor subunits, Drosophila glutamate receptor IIA (DGluRIIA) and DGluRIIB, are expressed at the Drosophila neuromuscular ...

TAB2 Causes Neuronal Damage by Aggravating Microglia‐Mediated Neuroinflammation in Parkinson's Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In microglia, STAT3 upregulates TAB2, which promotes NF‐κB activation through its NZF domain‐mediated recognition of K63‐linked ubiquitin chains, leading to inflammatory cytokine release and subsequent neuronal injury. Lumacaftor suppresses TAB2 expression and directly binds the TAB2‐NZF domain to interrupt K63 ubiquitin recognition, thereby blocking ...

Synaptic vesicle proteins and active zone plasticity

Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2016
Neurotransmitter is released from synaptic vesicles at the highly specialized presynaptic active zone. The complex molecular architecture of active zones mediates the speed, precision and plasticity of synaptic transmission.
