Synaptic Tagging and Capture From Synapses to Behavior
This reference presents a detailed exploration of the synaptic tagging and capture model, which has been proposed to provide a conceptual basis for...
-
Synaptic Integration at Neuron-OPC Synapses
The synapses between neurons and oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) in the central nervous system (CNS) have similar ultrastructures as... -
Synaptic Vesicles Methods and Protocols
This book provides protocols on the preparation of synaptic vesicles from different model systems and provides instructions for functional...
-
Compartmentalization of Synaptic Tagging and Capture
Testing of the synaptic tagging and capture (STC) hypothesis has produced remarkable work on the understanding of how a single neuron undergoes... -
Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Synaptic Tagging and Consolidation
After a synapse undergoes long-term potentiation (LTP), it acquires a newly remodeled molecular and structural organization. This reorganization over... -
Activity-Dependent Protein Transport as a Synaptic Tag
The “synaptic tagging and capture” hypothesis proposes that a hypothetical, cell biological mark is activated in the synapses undergoing early-phase... -
Decreased Synaptic Vesicle Glycoprotein 2A Binding in the Human Postmortem Essential Tremor Cerebellum: Evidence of Reduction in Synaptic Density
ObjectiveDespite being one of the most prevalent neurological diseases, the pathophysiology of essential tremor (ET) is not fully understood....
-
Understanding neural circuit function through synaptic engineering
Synapses are a key component of neural circuits, facilitating rapid and specific signalling between neurons. Synaptic engineering — the synthetic...

Modulation of synaptic transmission through O-GlcNAcylation
O-GlcNAcylation is a posttranslational modification where N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is attached and detached from a serine/threonine position by...
-
Synaptic Tagging and Metaplasticity as Mediators of Neuronal Consciousness
Forming memories for highly arousing, novel, or salient events engages synaptic mechanisms that allow the association of temporally remote events and... -
Synaptic loss and its association with symptom severity in Parkinson’s disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the fastest growing neurodegenerative disease, but at present there is no cure, nor any disease-modifying treatments....

Electrophysiological Analysis of Synaptic Transmission
This second edition volume expands on the previous edition with discussions on the latest techniques used to study synaptic transmissions. The...

Synaptic Cooperation and Competition: Two Sides of the Same Coin?
Memories are not recollections of our past but rather predictions of the future. As such, memories are evolving constructs prone to modifications.... -
Synaptic Tagging in the ACC: Basic Mechanisms and Functional Implications
Synaptic tagging and capture (STC) is believed to play important roles in hippocampus-related associative memory. Recent studies in the anterior... -
Synaptic Tagging and Capture: Functional Implications and Molecular Mechanisms
This chapter introduces the concept of synaptic tagging and capture, which was first identified in electrophysiological studies in hippocampal brain... -
From Where? Synaptic Tagging Allows the Nucleus Not to Care
Most of us now accept that the formation of long-lasting memories requires the de novo transcription of plasticity-related proteins. It is also... -
Positron Emission Tomography Imaging of Synaptic Dysfunction in Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases with a complex pathogenesis. Aggregations formed by abnormal deposition...

SNARE Proteins in Synaptic Vesicle Fusion
Neurotransmitters are stored in small membrane-bound vesicles at synapses; a subset of synaptic vesicles is docked at release sites. Fusion of docked... -
Sustained Depolarization Induces Gene Expression Pattern Changes Related to Synaptic Plasticity in a Human Cholinergic Cellular Model
Neuronal gene expression in the brain dynamically responds to synaptic activity. The interplay among synaptic activity, gene expression, and synaptic...

Secreted Glycoproteins That Regulate Synaptic Function: the Dispatchers in the Central Nervous System
Glycoproteins are proteins that contain oligosaccharide chains. As widely distributed functional proteins in the body, glycoproteins are essential...
