Between impulses the transmitter molecules are rapidly removed from ... There are two types of removal: Re-uptake – the neurotransmitter is reabsorbed back into the presynaptic neuron and ...

A fluorescent probe designed to incorporate a fluorophore into the structure of a neurotransmitter finds activity-dependent heterogeneity in dopamine release at individual synapses ...

Most communication between neurons is mediated by the neurotransmitter glutamate ... were shown to boost the binding of ligand molecules such as glutamate to iGluRs 3, 4. This gave us the idea ...

SV2A is an emerging target in neurological diseases, a poorly understood transmembrane glycoprotein that is thought to play a role in regulating the release of neurotransmitter molecules from neurons.

Sea's molecules act as selective dual AMPAR (AMPA receptor), KAINR (kainate receptor) antagonists (DAKAs). DAKAs dampen the activity of the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate which plays an ...
