The third generation of glutamate sensors, iGluSnFR3, tracks glutamate release at the synapse level. 1 Upon binding to glutamate, the reporter changes its conformation, intensifying the signal of its ...

MIT discovers 30% of your brain’s synapses are 'silent' — dormant connections that sit waiting until you need to learn something new
Every second you are awake, billions of synapses in your brain fire signals that let you think, move, and remember. But ...
Neurons stochastically generated up to eight different versions of a protein regulating neurotransmitter release, which could vary how they communicate with other cells. Neurons are talkers. They each ...
Neurotransmitters are the words our brain cells use to communicate with one another. For years, researchers relied on tools that provided limited temporal and spatial resolution to track changes in ...
Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest types of tumors. A team at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has discovered that pancreatic tumors exploit the body’s nervous system by forming ...
A research team led by Dr. Àlex Bayés, Head of the Molecular Physiology of the Synapse Group at the Institut de Recerca Sant Pau (IR Sant Pau), has achieved what for decades had been an elusive goal: ...
MIT neuroscientists have discovered that the adult brain contains millions of “silent synapses” — immature connections between neurons that remain inactive until they’re recruited to help form new ...
MIT neuroscientists have uncovered a surprising secret hidden in the adult brain: millions of “silent synapses,” dormant ...
Scientists have discovered millions of so-called silent synapses in the adult brain, immature links between neurons that are dormant until they are needed for the formation of new memories. It had ...
