    SIPA1L2 controls trafficking and local signaling of TrkB-containing amphisomes at presynaptic terminals

    Amphisomes are organelles of the autophagy pathway that result from the fusion of autophagosomes with late endosomes. While biogenesis of autophagosomes and late endosomes occurs continuously at axon terminals...

    The Microtubule Severing Protein Katanin Regulates Proliferation of Neuronal Progenitors in Embryonic and Adult Neurogenesis

    Microtubule severing regulates cytoskeletal rearrangement underlying various cellular functions. Katanin, a heterodimer, consisting of catalytic (p60) and regulatory (p80) subunits severs dynamic microtubules ...

    Plasticity of intrinsic excitability in mature granule cells of the dentate gyrus

    The dentate gyrus is the main entry gate for cortical input to the hippocampus and one of the few brain areas where adult neurogenesis occurs. Several studies have shown that it is relatively difficult to indu...

    Localising Receptors and Channels Across the Dendritic Arbour

    In central neurons, the strength and the number of excitatory and inhibitory synapses to a large extent determine the transfer of information from one neuron to another. The presence of multiple active conduct...
