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 Aging Blood: Cellular Origins, Circulating Drivers, and Therapeutic Potential

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
As a conduit linking all organs, the blood system both reflects and actively drives systemic aging. This review highlights how circulating pro‐aging and antiaging factors and age‐associated hematopoietic stem cell dysfunction contribute to immunosenescence and multi‐organ decline, positioning the hematopoietic system as a target for aging intervention.

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.

Determining the neurotransmitter concentration profile at active synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Establishing the temporal and concentration profiles of neurotransmitters during synaptic release is an essential step towards understanding the basic properties of inter-neuronal communication in the central nervous system.

Synaptic vesicle proteins

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 1999
Thomas Sudhof, Pietro De Camilli, Reinhard Jahn and Richard Scheller, to name but a few. Although the competitive, fast-paced nature of the field means you're unlikely to find them all in the same room at the same time.

CSF Levels of NPTX2 Are Associated With Less Brain Atrophy Over Time in Cognitively Unimpaired Individuals

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neuronal pentraxin 2 (NPTX2) is a synaptic protein involved in synaptic plasticity and regulation of neuronal excitability. Lower baseline cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) NPTX2 levels have been shown to be associated with an earlier onset of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a pre‐dementia syndrome, even after CSF Alzheimer's Disease (AD)

Decreased Serum 5‐HT: Clinical Correlates and Regulatory Role in NMJ of MG

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Although 5‐Hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT) indirectly stimulates muscle contraction and participates in regulating Acetylcholine receptor (AChR) cluster homeostasis in cellular, animal, and clinical studies, evidence regarding its potential to modulate muscle contraction in myasthenia gravis (MG) remains limited.

Synaptic vesicle-omics in mice captures signatures of aging and synucleinopathy

open access: yesNature Communications
Neurotransmitter release occurs through exocytosis of synaptic vesicles. α-Synuclein’s function and dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease and other synucleinopathies is thought to be tightly linked to synaptic vesicle binding. Age is the biggest risk factor

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.
