Actin/Myosin-V- and Activity-Dependent Inter-synaptic Vesicle Exchange in Central Neurons

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Summary: Vesicle sharing between synaptic boutons is an important component of the recycling process that synapses employ to maintain vesicle pools. However, the mechanisms supporting and regulating vesicle transport during the inter-synaptic exchange ...

Effects of Excess Brain-Derived Human α-Synuclein on Synaptic Vesicle Trafficking

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
α-Synuclein is a presynaptic protein that regulates synaptic vesicle trafficking under physiological conditions. However, in several neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, and multiple system atrophy, α ...

Differential expression of synaptophysin and synaptoporin during pre- and postnatal development of the hippocampal network [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The closely related synaptic vesicle membrane proteins synaptophysin and synaptoporin are abundant in the hippocampal formation of the adult rat. But the prenatal hippocampal formation contains only synaptophysin, which is first detected at embryonic day

Synaptic boutons sizes are tuned to best fit their physiological performances [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
To truly appreciate the myriad of events which relate synaptic function and vesicle dynamics, simulations should be done in a spatially realistic environment. This holds true in particular in order to explain as well the rather astonishing motor patterns

How do you recognize and reconstitute a synaptic vesicle after fusion? [version 1; referees: 3 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2017
Synaptic vesicle recycling is essential for sustained and reliable neurotransmission. A key component of synaptic vesicle recycling is the synaptic vesicle biogenesis process that is observed in synapses and that maintains the molecular identity of ...

Research progress on vesicle cycle and neurological disorders

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2021
Neurons are special polarized cells whose synaptic vesicles release neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft, acting on postsynaptic receptors and thus transmitting information from presynaptic to postsynaptic states.

Munc 18-1 Protein Molecules Move between Membrane Molecular Depots Distinct from Vesicle Docking Sites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Four evolutionarily conserved proteins are required for mammalian regulated exocytosis: three SNARE proteins, syntaxin, SNAP-25, and synaptobrevin, and the SM protein, Munc18-1. Here, using single-molecule imaging, we measured the spatial distribution of

Synaptic Vesicle Endocytosis [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2012
Neurons can sustain high rates of synaptic transmission without exhausting their supply of synaptic vesicles. This property relies on a highly efficient local endocytic recycling of synaptic vesicle membranes, which can be reused for hundreds, possibly thousands, of exo-endocytic cycles. Morphological, physiological, molecular, and genetic studies over

Morphologic and functional correlates of synaptic pathology in the cathepsin D knockout mouse model of congenital neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Mutations in the cathepsin D (CTSD) gene cause an aggressive neurodegenerative disease (congenital neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis) that leads to early death. Recent evidence suggests that presynaptic abnormalities play a major role in the pathogenesis of
