Inhibitory synaptic transmission, predominantly mediated by gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAARs), is a multifaceted process that involves precise molecular organisation and dynamic ...

How do we think, feel, remember, or move? These processes involve synaptic transmission, in which chemical signals are transmitted between nerve cells using molecular containers called vesicles.

Two distinct pools of synaptic vesicles appear to be involved in the spontaneous release of neurotransmitters and in neurotransmission triggered by a stimulus, researchers report in Neuron this week.

Researchers have identified a crucial, presynaptic role for synaptotagmin-3 (SYT3) in the maintenance of reliable high-frequency synaptic transmission.
