Understanding wiring and volume transmission

Brain Research Reviews, 2010
The proposal on the existence of two main modes of intercellular communication in the central nervous system (CNS) was introduced in 1986 and called wiring transmission (WT) and volume transmission (VT). The major criterion for this classification was the different characteristics of the communication channel with physical boundaries well delimited in ...

Volume transmission and wiring transmission from cellular to molecular networks: history and perspectives

Acta Physiologica, 2006
AbstractThe present paper deals with a fundamental issue in neuroscience: the inter‐neuronal communication. The paper gives a brief account of our previous and more recent theoretical contributions to the subject and also reports new recent data that support some aspects of our proposal on two major modes of communication in the central nervous system:

The seismic transmission volume

Geophysical Prospecting, 2001
Parallels are drawn between phenomena observed in optics and typical characteristics in exploration seismology. Considerations are also made in the context of major physical theories throughout the centuries. It is concluded that the one key similarity between optics and seismics is the transmission volume, which has ‘fuzzy’ characteristics ...

Volume holographic imaging in transmission geometry

Applied Optics, 2004
We address the performance of transmission geometry volume holograms as depth-selective imaging elements. We consider two simple implementations using holograms recorded with spherical and plane beams. We derive the point-spread function (PSF) of these systems using volume diffraction theory and use the PSF to estimate depth resolution. Furthermore, we

Integration of wiring transmission and volume transmission

2000
Publisher Summary Wiring transmission is the main form of chemical communication in the brain under most physiological conditions. However, substantial opportunity would seem to exist for the localized diffusion of transmitter, and transmitted-elicited signals, such as gases, to the releasing pre-synaptic terminal or to adjacent terminals within the ...

Cell Volume Measurements by Optical Transmission Microscopy

Current Protocols in Cytometry, 2015
AbstractCell volume is an important parameter in cell adaptation to anisosmotic stress, in the development of apoptosis and necrosis, and in the pathogenesis of several diseases. This unit describes a method for measuring the volume of adherent cells using a standard light microscope.

Cell Volume Regulation: Intracellular Transmission

1993
The cell membranes of virtually all animal cells are highly permeable to water, and hence the cell volume will be determined by the cellular content of osmotically active solutes and by the osmolality of the extracellular fluid. It should be noted, however, that in epithelial cells only the membrane on the basolateral side is highly water-permeable ...

Single-laser high-volume transmission

Nature Photonics, 2011
Researchers in Europe have demonstrated that an optical fast Fourier transformation technique can be used to efficiently encode and decode information at rates of terabits per second in a single laser source.
