An analytical method to measure the contribution of clear synaptic and dense-core peri-synaptic vesicles to neurotransmitter release from synaptic terminals with two classes of secretory vesicles

open access: yesMethodsX, 2021
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 ...

Nanoscale dynamics of synaptic vesicle trafficking and fusion at the presynaptic active zone

open access: yeseLife, 2016
The cytomatrix at the active zone (CAZ) is a macromolecular complex that facilitates the supply of release-ready synaptic vesicles to support neurotransmitter release at synapses.

Exploring the functional domain and the target of the tetanus toxin light chain in neurohypophysial terminals [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The tetanus toxin light chain blocks calcium induced vasopressin release from neurohypophysial nerve terminals. Here we show that histidine residue 233 within the putative zinc binding motif of the tetanus toxin light chain is essential for the ...

The Bruchpilot cytomatrix determines the size of the readily releasable pool of synaptic vesicles

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2013
Two Bruchpilot isoforms create a stereotypic arrangement of the cytomatrix that defines the size of the readily releasable pool of synaptic vesicles.

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

FM1-43 reveals membrane recycling in adult inner hair cells of the mammalian cochlea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Neural transmission of complex sounds demands fast and sustained rates of synaptic release from the primary cochlear receptors, the inner hair cells (IHCs). The cells therefore require efficient membrane recycling.

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

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.

Preferential localization of a vesicular monoamine transporter to dense core vesicles in PC12 cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Neurons and endocrine cells have two types of secretory vesicle that undergo regulated exocytosis. Large dense core vesicles (LDCVs) store neural peptides whereas small clear synaptic vesicles store classical neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine ...

The presynaptic ribbon maintains vesicle populations at the hair cell afferent fiber synapse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The ribbon is the structural hallmark of cochlear inner hair cell (IHC) afferent synapses, yet its role in information transfer to spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) remains unclear.
