Figure 3: Synaptic activity regulates the molecular composition of the postsynaptic density. Figure 5: Long-term potentiation and long-term depression involve activity-dependent insertion or ...
Between impulses the transmitter molecules are rapidly removed from the synaptic cleft to prevent continuous stimulation of postsynaptic neurons. There are two types of removal: Re-uptake – the ...
This study presents valuable insights into the organization of second-order circuits for gustatory neurons, particularly how they integrate opposing taste inputs and the metabolic states that regulate ...
A long-standing goal of neuroscience is to understand how molecules and cellular structures on a microscale give rise to communication between brain regions at the macroscale.
The key to recovering from traumatic nerve injuries, like those sustained in motor vehicle accidents or gunshot wounds, may be a gene named for the land of everlasting youth in Irish folklore. In a ...
