Published in 2022 at "FEBS Open Bio"

DOI: 10.1002/2211-5463.13473

Abstract: The mechanism of neurotransmitter release has been extensively characterized, showing that vesicle fusion is mediated by the SNARE complex formed by syntaxin‐1, SNAP‐25 and synaptobrevin. This complex is disassembled by N‐ethylmaleimide sensitive factor (NSF) and… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of Comparative Neurology"

DOI: 10.1002/cne.25406

Abstract: Tonotopic organization is a fundamental feature of the auditory system. In the developing auditory brainstem, the ontogeny and maturation of neurotransmission progress from high to low frequencies along the tonotopic axis. To explore the underlying… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Cell reports"

DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2019.12.018

Abstract: Neurotransmitters often have multiple receptors that induce distinct responses in receiving cells. Expression and localization of neurotransmitter receptors in individual neurons are therefore critical for understanding the operation of neural circuits. Here we describe a… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jiec.2019.03.061

Abstract: Abstract Herein, we demonstrate the selective sensing of Dopamine (DA), an important neurotransmitter, by using Nafion-stabilized two-dimensional transition metal carbides (Ti3C2Tx MXenes). Ti3C2Tx was deposited on a glassy carbon electrode followed by Nafion coating to… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Nature Neuroscience"

DOI: 10.1038/s41593-020-0657-z

Abstract: The ventral tegmental area (VTA) is important for reward processing and motivation. The anatomic organization of neurotransmitter-specific inputs to the VTA remains poorly resolved. In the present study, we mapped the major neurotransmitter projections to… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Communications Biology"

DOI: 10.1038/s42003-025-09135-z

Abstract: Chromogranin A (CgA), a neuroendocrine pro-hormone, is proteolytically cleaved into bioactive peptides, most notably catestatin (CST) and pancreastatin (PST), which exert opposing effects on metabolic and inflammatory processes. Using CgA- and CST knockout (KO) mice,… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1916600117

Abstract: Significance Neurotransmitter switching generally involves replacement of an excitatory transmitter with an inhibitory transmitter or vice versa and has been linked to changes in animal behavior. There are corresponding switches in postsynaptic receptors that enable… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences"

DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2019.00080

Abstract: Neurotransmitters released at the neural synapse through vesicle exocytosis are spatiotemporally controlled by the action of neurotransmitter transporters. Integral membrane proteins of the solute carrier 6 (SLC6) family are involved in the sodium and chloride… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience"

DOI: 10.3389/fncel.2022.1060189

Abstract: Neurotransmitter content is deemed the most basic defining criterion for neuronal classes, contrasting with the intercellular heterogeneity of many other molecular and functional features. Here we show, in the adult mouse brain, that neurotransmitter content… read more here.
