Takahashi's team has previously discovered a new protein complex within the synaptic junction, called TrkC-PTPσ, which is ...

A skeletal muscle isn’t much use without a signal telling it to move. In vertebrates, this signaling happens at the neuromus-cular junction (NMJ), a synaptic connection between motor neurons and ...

Dale, in turn, demonstrated the more general role of chemical transmission at the neuromuscular junction and in the ... They concluded that “inhibitory synaptic action is mediated by a specific ...

Is this a stable endpoint of synaptic plasticity ... A very similar sequence of events occurs at the neuromuscular junction during development 75. It will therefore be interesting to apply ...
