A new study from Pitt researchers challenges long-held views on synaptic transmission. They discovered that the brain uses ...

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

A new study challenges a decades-old assumption in neuroscience by showing that the brain uses distinct transmission sites -- not a shared site -- to achieve different types of plasticity.

The reconstructed vesicle cycle model provides critical insights into synaptic transmission, advancing neuroscience and ...

Rapid information transfer between neurons occurs through the chemical synapse, where regulated exocytosis of neurotransmitter-containing synaptic vesicles from the pre-synaptic plasma membrane ...

Credit: Neuroscience News Neurons communicate through a process called synaptic transmission, where one neuron releases chemical messengers called neurotransmitters from a presynaptic terminal ...

Sankaet Pathak’s last startup, fintech Synapse, filed for bankruptcy in 2024 amid issues with partner Evolve Bank & Trust. Tens of millions of dollars in deposits made by consumers, mostly ...

Researchers from the lab led by Prof. Joris De Wit (VIB-KU Leuven) have discovered an important clue to how connections between brain cells, known as synapses, mature. These new findings ...
