Previous studies have suggested the importance of synaptophysin (p38), a major integral membrane protein of the synaptic vesicle, in transmitter secretion, but few have directly addressed its functional role at intact synapses.

Loss of Synaptophysin Immunoexpression in Primary Progressive Aphasia
Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is characterized by progressive loss of language, unassociated with generalized cognitive loss and with no uniform pathological abnormality. To address whether the issue of PPA is associated with synaptic loss, we compared immunoreactivity in Broca’s area with that in the adjacent gyrus from a case

Synaptophysin Regulates the Kinetics of Synaptic Vesicle Endocytosis in Central Neurons [PDF]
SummaryDespite being the most abundant synaptic vesicle membrane protein, the function of synaptophysin remains enigmatic. For example, synaptic transmission was reported to be completely normal in synaptophysin knockout mice; however, direct experiments

Neocortical synaptophysin asymmetry and behavioral lateralization in chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes)
Although behavioral lateralization is known to correlate with certain aspects of brain asymmetry in primates, there are limited data concerning hemispheric biases in the microstructure of the neocortex. In the present study, we investigated whether there

Neuroendocrine gene subsets are uniquely dysregulated in prostate adenocarcinoma
Prostate cancer has heterogeneous growth patterns, and its prognosis is the poorest when it progresses to a neuroendocrine phenotype. Using bioinformatic analysis, we evaluated RNA expression of neuroendocrine genes in a panel of five different cancer ...

Torpedo synaptophysin: evolution of a synaptic vesicle protein
Synaptophysin is an integral membrane protein of synaptic vesicles found in neurons and endocrine cells. Synaptophysin monomers associate into hexamers forming a large conductance channel. We present an analysis of synaptophysin from the nervous system of the marine ray Torpedo californica.
