The synaptic vesicle proteome [PDF]
AbstractSynaptic vesicles are key organelles in neurotransmission. Vesicle integral or membrane‐associated proteins mediate the various functions the organelle fulfills during its life cycle. These include organelle transport, interaction with the nerve terminal cytoskeleton, uptake and storage of low molecular weight constituents, and the regulated ...

Synaptic Vesicle Endocytosis [PDF]
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

Summary: Although defective synaptic transmission was suggested to play a role in neurodegenerative diseases, the dynamics and vesicle pools of synaptic vesicles during neurodegeneration remain elusive.

Synaptic vesicle endocytosis [PDF]
Exocytosis of synaptic vesicles is followed rapidly by reinternalization and recycling of their membranes. Recent studies have confirmed the key role of clathrin-mediated endocytosis in synaptic vesicle reformation and have identified new proteins that participate in this process.

Two types of secretory vesicles co-exist at some presynaptic terminals. Clear synaptic vesicles (CSV) release their contents at the synaptic active zone, upon single impulses, while dense-core vesicles (DCV) usually release their contents in the ...

Reduced expression of the vesicular acetylcholine transporter and neurotransmitter content affects synaptic vesicle distribution and shape in mouse neuromuscular junction. [PDF]
In vertebrates, nerve muscle communication is mediated by the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine packed inside synaptic vesicles by a specific vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT).

Synaptic Vesicle Exocytosis [PDF]
Presynaptic nerve terminals release neurotransmitters by synaptic vesicle exocytosis. Membrane fusion mediating synaptic exocytosis and other intracellular membrane traffic is affected by a universal machinery that includes SNARE (for "soluble NSF-attachment protein receptor") and SM (for "Sec1/Munc18-like") proteins.

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

Effects of synaptic vesicles on actin polymerization [PDF]
We have analyzed the effects of synaptic vesicles on actin polymerization by using a time-resolved spectrofluorometric assay. We have found that synaptic vesicles have complex effects on the kinetics of actin polymerization, which vary depending on ...

T-cell trans-synaptic vesicles are distinct and carry greater effector content than constitutive extracellular vesicles [PDF]
The immunological synapse is a molecular hub that facilitates the delivery of three activation signals, namely antigen, costimulation/corepression and cytokines, from antigen-presenting cells (APC) to T cells.
