Activity-dependence of synaptic vesicle dynamics [PDF]
, 2017 The proper function of synapses relies on efficient recycling of synaptic vesicles. The small size of synaptic boutons has hampered efforts to define the dynamical states of vesicles during recycling.

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

Ontogeny of synaptophysin and synaptoporin in the central nervous system [PDF]
, 1993 The expression of the synaptic vesicle antigens synaptophysin (SY) and synaptoporin (SO) was studied in the rat striatum, which contains a nearly homogeneous population of GABAergic neurons. In situ hybridization revealed high levels of SY transcripts in

Clathrin coat controls synaptic vesicle acidification by blocking vacuolar ATPase activity
eLife, 2018 Newly-formed synaptic vesicles (SVs) are rapidly acidified by vacuolar adenosine triphosphatases (vATPases), generating a proton electrochemical gradient that drives neurotransmitter loading.

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