A vesicle, only a few nanometers in size and filled with neurotransmitters, approaches a cell membrane, fuses with it, and ...
Researchers at Leipzig University's Carl Ludwig Institute for Physiology, working in collaboration with Johns Hopkins ...
A high-speed “zap-and-freeze” method is giving scientists their clearest view yet of how brain cells send messages. By freezing tissue at the instant a signal fires, researchers revealed how synaptic ...
A team of Berlin-based researchers led by Jana Kroll and Christian Rosenmund has captured the fleeting moment a nerve cell ...
Kanazawa University, report the successful creation of artificial synaptic vesicles that can be remotely controlled by near-infrared (NIR) light. By embedding a phthalocyanine dye into lipid bilayers, ...
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 117, No. 25 (June 23, 2020), pp. 14493-14502 (10 pages) A high rate of synaptic vesicle (SV) release is required ...
Researchers have used cryo-electron tomography to uncover new details of the molecular structure of synaptic vesicles, which help transport neurotransmitters in the brain. The study could inform ...

Synuclein (α-Syn) is a presynaptic protein primarily associated with Parkinson’s disease and other neurodegenerative diseases ...
In A, researchers used a fluorescent protein (synaptopHluorin) to visualize synaptic vesicle movement. Some vesicles stay open briefly before retrieval (kiss-and-run). Others stay open longer but also ...
