Homeostatic plasticity, the brain's method of preserving equilibrium in neural circuits, relies heavily on spontaneous ...

To sustain high rates of transmitter release, synaptic terminals must rapidly re-supply vesicles to release sites and prime them for exocytosis. Here we describe imaging of single synaptic ...

How do we think, feel, remember, or move? These processes involve synaptic transmission, in which chemical signals are ...

This study leverages cryo-correlative light and electron microscopy (cryo-CLEM) with triple fiducial markers to achieve ...

New research has uncovered that neurons store their own glycogen, acting as “backup batteries” to keep the brain functioning ...

Characterization of intracellular synapse heterogeneity aides to understand the intricate computational logic of neuronal circuits. Despite recent advances in connectomics, the spatial patterns of ...

The authors proposed two hypotheses: first, that methamphetamine induces neuroinflammation, and second, that it alters neuronal stem cell differentiation. These are valuable hypotheses, and the ...

Nonmodifiable risk factors for DLB include age and family history. Risk increases substantially in individuals with a ...
