Researchers have mapped and catalogued more than 70,000 synaptic connections from about 2,000 rat neurons, using a silicon chip capable of recording small yet telltale synaptic signals from a large ...

Researchers have identified the mitochondrial calcium uniporter as a critical protein in the strengthening of synaptic ...

Harvard researchers have mapped and catalogued more than 70,000 synaptic connections from about 2,000 rat neurons, using a silicon chip capable of recording small yet telltale synaptic signals from a ...

However, the study provides limited new insights into the relationship between retinal lamination defects and overall retinal function. Neural lamination is a common feature of the central nervous ...

Sleep's role to down-scale glutamate, excitatory, frontal cortical synapses is extended to include an up-scaling of metaplastic LTP potential, in recovery from prolonged waking induced saturation of ...

Researchers at the Center for Life Sciences at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI have for the first time identified structural ...

However, if the dose is too high, the use of Botox can be fatal due to paralysis of the respiratory muscles. This can happen as a result of bacterial meat poisoning and is called botulism. To make the ...

The study explores molecular mechanisms underlying synaptic plasticity - the strengthening or weakening of neuronal connections that enable learning and memory.
