Cell-to-Cell Communication in Learning and Memory: From Neuro- and Glio-Transmission to Information Exchange Mediated by Extracellular Vesicles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Most aspects of nervous system development and function rely on the continuous crosstalk between neurons and the variegated universe of non-neuronal cells surrounding them.

VAMP4 directs synaptic vesicles to a pool that selectively maintains asynchronous neurotransmission

open access: yesNature Neuroscience, 2012
Synaptic vesicles in the brain harbor several soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive-factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) proteins. With the exception of synaptobrevin2, or VAMP2 (syb2), which is directly involved in vesicle fusion, the role of these ...

Scattering synaptic vesicles [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2006
![][1] The BDNF-induced increase (left) in synapses (red) on a neuron (green) is lost if β-catenin and cadherin are locked together (right). Synaptic vesicles get dispersed to new sites, according to Bamji et al.

Biointerfacing with AgBiS2 Quantum Dots for Pseudocapacitive Photostimulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
It is demonstrated that AgBiS2 quantum dots exhibit unique photoinduced pseudocapacitive charge transfer properties, enabling efficient light‐to‐electrical energy conversion. These quantum dots facilitate enhanced light absorption and transduction when integrated with ZnO nanowires, which serve as an effective charge transport medium.

Autism and mild epilepsy associated with a de novo missense pathogenic variant in the GTPase effector domain of DNM1

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Dynamin 1 is a GTPase protein involved in synaptic vesicle fission, which facilitates the exocytosis of neurotransmitters necessary for normal signaling. Pathogenic variants in the DNM1 gene are associated with intractable epilepsy, often manifested as infantile spasms at onset, developmental delay, and a movement disorder, and are located in ...

Adaptor Protein Complexes 1 and 3 Are Essential for Generation of Synaptic Vesicles from Activity-Dependent Bulk Endosomes

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2012
Activity-dependent bulk endocytosis is the dominant synaptic vesicle retrieval mode during high intensity stimulation in central nerve terminals. A key event in this endocytosis mode is the generation of new vesicles from bulk endosomes, which replenish ...

Tunable Tactile Synapses Enabled by Erasable Doping in Iongel‐Gated Nanotube Network Transistors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Artificial tactile synaptic sensors are realized by an iongel‐gated single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) transistor with reversible doping characteristics. The device senses and memorizes tactile stimuli and exhibits gate bias‐dependent excitatory or inhibitory synaptic behavior.

VGLUT1 functions as a glutamate/proton exchanger with chloride channel activity in hippocampal glutamatergic synapses

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
During neurotransmission synaptic vesicles are filled with glutamate by vesicular glutamate transporters (VGLUTs). Here, authors image intact neurons and show that in synaptic vesicles VGLUT functions as a glutamate/proton exchanger associated with a ...

Molecular mechanisms that stabilize short term synaptic plasticity during presynaptic homeostatic plasticity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Presynaptic homeostatic plasticity (PHP) compensates for impaired postsynaptic neurotransmitter receptor function through a rapid, persistent adjustment of neurotransmitter release, an effect that can exceed 200%.
