Alterations in Synaptic Strength Preceding Axon Withdrawal

... Motor neurons with cell bodies in the spinal cord have long axons that branch near muscles. Typically, an axon makes a single point of synaptic contact with a skeletal muscle fiber, i.e. the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). The process of fusion of synaptic vesicles and release of ACh occurs at differe ...

... The functional role of the electrical inhibition is best understood in the context of the extremely short utilization time of the M-cell, as little as 400 μs, which serves to ensure survival by triggering a rapid escape (Catania, 2009). Within this very short interval two important computations must ...

... This means that a LIF neuron will fire more often when this input is strong than when it is weak, and given a constant input this will lead to oscillatory behavior (figure 3). However, it doesn’t say much about non-constant input. Suppose for instance that neuron X has four input neurons, each with ...

Neurotransmitter

Neurotransmitters are endogenous chemicals that enable neurotransmission. They transmit signals across a chemical synapse, such as in a neuromuscular junction, from one neuron (nerve cell) to another ""target"" neuron, muscle cell, or gland cell. Neurotransmitters are released from synaptic vesicles in synapses into the synaptic cleft, where they are received by receptors on other synapses. Many neurotransmitters are synthesized from simple and plentiful precursors such as amino acids, which are readily available from the diet and only require a small number of biosynthetic steps to convert them. Neurotransmitters play a major role in shaping everyday life and functions. Their exact numbers are unknown but more than 100 chemical messengers have been identified.
