This study presents solid evidence for distinct neurotransmitter release modalities between two subclasses of dopaminergic neurons in the olfactory bulb, highlighting an important finding that ...

Published in Nature Communications, the study describes how two key proteins allow glial cells to actively monitor the hair-like cilia that extend out of nematode dendrites, so that the glial ...

In this manuscript, Griesius et al analyze the dendritic integration properties of NDNF and OLM interneurons, and suggest that the supralinear NMDA receptor-dependent synaptic integration may be ...

2. Neurons are made of three parts Neurons receive signals in a short antennae-like part called the dendrite, and send signals to other neurons with a long cable-like part called the axon.

Scientists discovered that dendrites, the branch-like extensions of neurons, contain a structured network of contact sites that amplify calcium signals—similar to how muscles contract. These contact ...

The coordinated assembly and disassembly of the neuronal actin cytoskeleton defines the range and complexity of morphologies in neurons like dendrite formation, spine development, and synaptic ...

Result and discussion: We show that human dendritic cells (DCs) and LCs have a previously unknown primary cilium-like structure. The primary cilium was assembled during DC proliferation in response to ...

The integumentary system is the body’s outermost layer. Composed of skin, hair, nails, glands, and nerves, its main job is to protect your insides from elements in your environment, like pollution and ...

A healthy person can have some minor variations in the diaphragm's anatomy. For example, the left or right side may be slightly higher or lower without affecting physical functions. During pregnancy, ...

Pg-LPS were isolated by using the hot phenol-water extraction. The antagonistic effect was analysed on HEK-Blue-mTLR4 cells, mouse CD11c+ dendritic cells (DC) cells, human PBMC cells and mouse B cells ...
