Mimicking spike-timing-dependent plasticity with emulated memristors
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019)
Memristors have found application in neuromorphic circuits and it has been shown that, under certain conditions, they may mimic the behavior of neuronal synapses. Experimenting with memristor-based synapses has several ...
The lipid habitats of neurotransmitter receptors in brain
(Elsevier Science, 2016-11)
Neurotransmitter receptors, the macromolecules specialized in decoding the chemical signals encrypted in the chemical signaling mechanism in the nervous system, occur either at the somatic cell surface of chemically excitable ...
Synaptic control of mRNA translation by reversible assembly of XRN1 bodies
(Company of Biologists, 2015-04)
Repression of mRNA translation is linked to the formation of specific cytosolic foci such as stress granules and processing bodies, which store or degrade mRNAs. In neurons, synaptic activity regulates translation at the ...

Functional postnatal maturation of the medial olivocochlear efferent-outer hair cell synapse
(Society for Neuroscience, 2020-06-17)
The organ of Corti, the auditory mammalian sensory epithelium, contains two types of mechanotransducer cells, inner and outer hair cells (IHCs and OHCs, respectively). IHCs are involved in conveying acoustic stimuli to the ...
The membrane glycoprotein M6a endocytic/recycling pathway involves clathrin-mediated endocytosis and affects neuronal synapses
(Frontiers Editorial Office, 2017-09)
Single point mutations or variations in the expression of the gene encoding theneuronal glycoprotein M6a have been associated with psychiatric disorders such as Alzheimer, depression and schizophrenia. In cultured neurons, ...
On the application of a diffusive memristor compact model to neuromorphic circuits
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2019-07-13)
Memristive devices have found application in both random access memory and neuromorphic circuits. In particular, it is known that their behavior resembles that of neuronal synapses. However, it is not simple to come by ...
Synaptic contributions to cochlear outer hair cell Ca2+ dynamics
(Society for Neuroscience, 2021-08)
For normal cochlear function, outer hair cells (OHCs) require a precise control of intracellular Ca21 levels. In the absence of regulatory elements such as proteinaceous buffers or extrusion pumps, OHCs degenerate, leading ...
Encoding sound in the cochlea: from receptor potential to afferent discharge
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-05)
Ribbon-class synapses in the ear achieve analog to digital transformation of a continuously graded membrane potential to all-or-none spikes. In mammals, several auditory nerve fibres (ANFs) carry information from each inner ...
