Some forms of synaptic plasticity involve changes in the probability of presynaptic synaptic vesicle release, but the mechanisms remain poorly understood. In this study, Midorikawa and Sakaba suggest ...

Interactions of two voltage-gated calcium channels and a pump enable separate control of exocytosis and endocytosis at chemical synapses. Chemical synapses transmit information within the nervous ...

The paper S.S.H. Wang et al., “Fusion competent synaptic vesicles persist upon active zone disruption and loss of vesicle docking,” Neuron, 91:777-91, 2016. Hair trigger Neurons send each other ...

Vesicle recycling in the presynaptic terminal at one end of a neuron, showing the role of dynamin during the last step of endocytosis (membrane retrieval), where the protein cuts off the vesicle from ...

Neurotransmission, or synaptic transmission, corresponds to the movement of signals between neurons, permitting the transmission of information through the proliferation of action potentials. This ...
