Computational modeling of trans-synaptic nanocolumns, a modulator of synaptic transmission

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2022
Understanding synaptic transmission is of crucial importance in neuroscience. The spatial organization of receptors, vesicle release properties and neurotransmitter molecule diffusion can strongly influence features of synaptic currents. Newly discovered

Molecular Aspects of Secretory Granule Exocytosis by Neurons and Endocrine Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Neuronal communication and endocrine signaling are fundamental for integrating the function of tissues and cells in the body. Hormones released by endocrine cells are transported to the target cells through the circulation.

Clarinet (CLA-1), a novel active zone protein required for synaptic vesicle clustering and release

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Active zone proteins cluster synaptic vesicles at presynaptic terminals and coordinate their release. In forward genetic screens, we isolated a novel Caenorhabditis elegans active zone gene, clarinet (cla-1).

Concurrent imaging of synaptic vesicle recycling and calcium dynamics.

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2011
Synaptic transmission involves the calcium-dependent release of neurotransmitter from synaptic vesicles. Genetically encoded optical probes emitting different wavelengths of fluorescent light in response to neuronal activity offer a powerful approach to

Synaptophysin and synaptoporin expression in the developing rat olfactory system [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The expressions of two closely related synaptic vesicle antigens synaptophysin and synaptoporin were examined in the olfactory system of the adult rat and during pre- and postnatal development.

Activity of nAChRs containing α9 subunits modulates synapse stabilization via bidirectional signaling programs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Although the synaptogenic program for cholinergic synapses of the neuromuscular junction is well known, little is known of the identity or dynamic expression patterns of proteins involved in non-neuromuscular nicotinic synapse development.

Synaptic vesicle pools: an update [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2010
During the last few decades synaptic vesicles have been assigned to a variety of functional and morphological classes or "pools". We have argued in the past (Rizzoli and Betz, 2005) that synaptic activity in several preparations is accounted for by the function of three vesicle pools: the readily releasable pool (docked at active zones and ready to go ...

Synaptic vesicle release regulates pre-myelinating oligodendrocyte-axon interactions in a neuron subtype-specific manner

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
Oligodendrocyte-lineage cells are central nervous system (CNS) glia that perform multiple functions including the selective myelination of some but not all axons.

Inositol Pyrophosphate Metabolism Regulates Presynaptic Vesicle Cycling at Central Synapses

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: The coordination of synaptic vesicle exocytosis and endocytosis supports neurotransmitter release from presynaptic terminals. Although inositol pyrophosphates, such as 5-diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate (5-IP7), are versatile signaling ...

Synaptic Transmission: Kinetics of synaptic-vesicle recycling [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent 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.
