GABA acts as the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain, shaping neuronal and circuit activity. For sustained synaptic transmission, synaptic vesicles (SVs) are required to be recycled and refilled with neurotransmitters using an H(+) electrochemical gradient. However, neither the

BACKGROUND: Quantification of synapses and their morphological analysis are extensively used in network development and connectivity studies, drug screening and other areas of neuroscience. Thus, a number of quantitative approaches were introduced so far. However, most of the available methods are h

Cancer induced bone pain is a very complicated clinical pain states that has proven difficult to be treated effectively due to poorly understand of underlying mechanism, but bone cancer pain (BCP) seems to be enhanced by a state of spinal sensitization. In the present study, we showed that carcinoma

… To reveal the distribution of GABA and its secretion mechanisms during brain development, we investigated the immunohistochemical localization of two molecules, GABA and vesicular GABA transporter (VGAT), which is a GABAergic vesicle protein, in the developing mouse cerebellum by means of newly developed antibodies. … Until postnatal day 7 (P7), GABA was localized throughout the GABAergic neurons, and VGAT accumulated at axon varicosities and growth cones, where the α1 subunit did not accumulate. …
