Frontiers in Physiology, 2012 Extrasynaptic neurotransmission is an important short distance form of volume transmission (VT) and describes the extracellular diffusion of transmitters and modulators after synaptic spillover or extrasynaptic release in the local circuit regions ...

Local control of striatal dopamine release
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014 The mesolimbic and nigrostriatal dopamine (DA) systems play a key role in the physiology of reward seeking, motivation and motor control. Importantly, they are also involved in the pathophysiology of Parkinson’s and Huntington’s disease, schizophrenia ...

DELIRIUM FROM THE GLIOCENTRIC PERSPECTIVE
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015 Delirium is an acute state marked by disturbances in cognition, attention, memory, perception, and sleep-wake cycle which is common in elderly. Others have shown an association between delirium and increased mortality, length of hospitalization, cost ...

Journal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2022 Here we present a complex hypothesis about the psychosomatic mechanism of serotonergic psychedelics. Serotonergic psychedelics affect gut microbes that produce a temporary increase of 5-HT by their host enterochromaffin cells (ECs).

Brain Structure and Function: Insights from Chemical Neuroanatomy
Life, 2023 We present a brief historical and epistemological outline of investigations on the brain’s structure and functions. These investigations have mainly been based on the intermingling of chemical anatomy, new techniques in the field of microscopy and ...

Nicotinic modulation of cortical circuits
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014 The ascending cholinergic neuromodulatory system sends projections throughout cortex and has been shown to play an important role in a number of cognitive functions including arousal, working memory, and attention. However, despite a wealth of behavioral

Nitric Oxide Signaling in the Auditory Pathway
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021 Nitric oxide (NO) is of fundamental importance in regulating immune, cardiovascular, reproductive, neuromuscular, and nervous system function. It is rapidly synthesized and cannot be confined, it is highly reactive, so its lifetime is measured in seconds.

Cycling of dense core vesicles involved in somatic exocytosis of serotonin by leech neurons
Frontiers in Physiology, 2012 We studied the cycling of dense core vesicles producing somatic exocytosis of serotonin. Our experiments were made using electron microscopy and vesicle staining with fluorescent dye FM1-43 in Retzius neurons of the leech, which secrete serotonin from ...

Frontiers in Physiology, 2012 Nitric oxide is unconstrained by cell membranes and can therefore act along a broad distance as a volume transmitter. Spillover of nitric oxide between neurons may have a major impact on central nervous system diseases and particularly on ...
