α-Synuclein (α-Syn) is a presynaptic protein primarily associated with Parkinson’s disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. The cholesterol content in SV membranes regulates α-Syn binding to ...
Jennifer Morgan (Marine Biological Laboratory or MBL) and Dragomir Milovanovic (German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) have formed a large collaboration at the MBL to understand how ...
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. Now, ...
Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they unexpectedly found new information about a protein's special role in getting brain cells to communicate at the right time and place in experiments with ...

Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases are the two most common neurodegenerative disorders, affecting millions of people worldwide. Published in the Journal of Neuroscience, new research from the ...
It takes just a few milliseconds: A vesicle, only a few nanometers in size and filled with neurotransmitters, approaches a cell membrane, fuses with it, and releases its chemical messengers into the ...
