Researchers have identified a distinct and reproducible gene expression program associated with neurotransmission in the living human brain, offering unprecedented insight into the molecular ...

What are the three modes of neurotransmission, and how do they differ in terms of temporal coupling with action potentials? There are three modes of neurotransmission: stimulation-dependent release ...

Glycine serves dual roles in the central nervous system: as a principal inhibitory neurotransmitter in spinal cord and brainstem circuits, and as an essential co-agonist at excitatory NMDA receptors.

For decades, neuroscientists have debated whether synaptic vesicles “kiss-and-run” or do an irreversible “full collapse” when releasing neurotransmitters. Now, a team in China has frozen that moment ...
