Christian Chryssos of Monmouth County’s Academy of Allied Health and Science in Neptune will take part in the National Brain ...

Synaptic transmission is the biological process by which a neuron communicates with a target cell across a synapse. Chemical synaptic transmission involves the release of a neurotransmitter from ...

GABA, or gamma-aminobutyric acid, is one such supplement. This amino acid functions as a neurotransmitter in the brain, playing a key role in managing anxiety, stress, and sleep. GABA supplements ...

For years, David Nutt, a neuropsychopharmacologist at Imperial College London and co-founder of GABA Labs, has been toying with the idea of a synthetic alcoholic drink that mimics the same ...

Besides the presence of the most abundant γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA-ergic) medium spiny neurons (MSNs), the striatum also contains distributed populations of cholinergic interneurons (ChIs), which ...

The ventral tegmental area (VTA) contains projection neurons that release the neurotransmitters dopamine, GABA, and/or glutamate from distal synapses. VTA also contains GABA neurons that synapse ...

2017; for review see Tufo et al., 2022), there are other potential indirect ways in which depolarising a DA neuron might produce a GABA response in that same cell. In conclusion, these findings ...

Spatial transcriptomics reveals distinct microglial mechanisms driving amyloid-β clearance in both passively and actively immunized patients with Alzheimer’s disease. The authors show that ...

Microglia may act using several of the mechanisms described above based in close microglia-neuron contact (elimination ... synaptic maturation of adult-born GCs by modulation of GABA-mediated ...
