Neuronal endoplasmic reticulum (ER) appears continuous throughout the cell. Its shape and continuity are influenced by ER-shaping proteins, mutations in which can cause distal axon degeneration in Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP). We therefore asked how ...

Bioaccumulation and molecular effects of carbamazepine and methylmercury co-exposure in males of Dreissena polymorpha

Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Dominique Grandjean, Nguyên Thiên Kim Lê, Claudia Cosio

Dreissena polymorpha is a bivalve promising for biomonitoring in freshwater ecosystems thanks to its abundance and high filtration activity allowing rapid uptake of toxicants and identification of their negative effects. Nonetheless, we still lack knowledg ...

A conditional glutamatergic synaptic vesicle marker for Drosophila

Evelyne Ruchti, Brian Donal McCabe

Glutamate is a principal neurotransmitter used extensively by the nervous systems of all vertebrate and invertebrate animals. It is primarily an excitatory neurotransmitter that has been implicated in nervous system development, as well as a myriad of brai ...

ious mechanisms involved in schizophrenia pathophysiology, such as dopamine dysregulation, glutamate/NMDA receptor dysfunction, neuroinflammation or redox imbalance, all appear to converge towards an oxidative stress "hub" affecting parvalbumine interneuro ...

Human Cortical Pyramidal Neurons: From Spines to Spikes via Models

Idan Segev, Ruth Benavides Piccione, Guy Eyal, Yair Deitcher

We present detailed models of pyramidal cells from human neocortex, including models on their excitatory synapses, dendritic spines, dendritic NMDA- and somatic/axonal Na(+) spikes that provided new insights into signal processing and computational capabil ...

Amygdala GluN2B-NMDAR dysfunction is critical in abnormal aggression of neurodevelopmental origin induced by St8sia2 deficiency

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Graham Knott, Johannes Gräff, Jocelin Grosse, Olivia Zanoletti, Simone Astori, Elias Georges Gebara, Jose Vicente Sanchez Mut, Catherine Maclachlan, Wei Tang, Bianca Ambrogina Silva, Alexandre Claude Gustave Bacq

Aggression is frequently observed in neurodevelopmental psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, autism, and bipolar disorder. Due to a lack of understanding of its underlying mechanisms, effective treatments for abnormal aggression are still missing. ...

L-Lactate is a positive modulator of NMDAR-mediated signaling resulting in plasticity gene induction and memory consolidation. However, L-Lactate is also able to protect neurons against excito-toxic NMDAR activity, an indication of a mitigating action of L ...

Inhaling xenon ameliorates l -dopa-induced dyskinesia in experimental parkinsonism

Grégoire Courtine, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Tomislav Milekovic, Shiqi Sun

Parkinson's disease motor symptoms are treated with levodopa, but long‐term treatment leads to disabling dyskinesia. Altered synaptic transmission and maladaptive plasticity of corticostriatal glutamatergic projections play a critical role in the pathophys ...

The ability of presynaptic dopamine terminals to tune neurotransmitter release to meet the demands of neuronal activity is critical to neurotransmission. Although vesicle content has been assumed to be static, in vitro data increasingly suggest that cell a ...

Synapses are key elements for communication within the complex network of neurons that make up our brain. Interestingly, synaptic connections can differ greatly in form and function, depending on the specific circuit into which they are embedded. In this P ...
