A vesicle, only a few nanometers in size and filled with neurotransmitters, approaches a cell membrane, fuses with it, and ...

New research from Colorado State University into the ways neurons regulate chemical balance in the brain could provide valuable insights toward ...

Every movement you make and every memory you form depends on precise communication between neurons. When that communication ...

A team of Berlin-based researchers led by Jana Kroll and Christian Rosenmund has captured the fleeting moment a nerve cell ...

Neurons can rapidly rebalance their communication using a structural signal rather than electrical activity, overturning long-held assumptions about how synapses maintain stability.

An international team led by Goethe University Frankfurt, Germany, has used state-of-the-art cryo-electron microscopy to ...

Researchers have come up with a clever new way of freezing brain cells just as they fire out a signal, meaning processes that ...

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 ...
