To sustain high rates of transmitter release, synaptic terminals must rapidly re-supply vesicles to release sites and prime them for exocytosis. Here we describe imaging of single synaptic ...

Synaptic vesicle exocytosis articles from across Nature Portfolio Synaptic vesicle exocytosis is the biological process by which a synaptic vesicle fuses with the plasma membrane of the pre ...

A liposome model of exocytosis has been used to examine the nanometer environment of the space between the electrode and the membrane. First, this has been used to test models of coulometric ...

There are few scientific methods more elegantly simple than "just sprinkle it on top." Researchers at Tohoku University and ...

We report the fabrication and characterization of carbon microelectrode arrays (MEAs) and their application to spatially and temporally resolve neurotransmitter release from single pheochromocytoma ...

Their exocytosis in the growth cone depends on the exocyst complex that mediates the tethering of vesicles at the cell membrane prior to their fusion. It is localized to the membrane by the binding of ...

Lysosomal storage diseases are a group of metabolic disorders caused by deficiencies of several components of lysosomal function. Most commonly affected are lysosomal hydrolases, which are involved in ...

The Semaglutide peptide has emerged as a compelling subject in biochemical and physiological research due to its potential ...
