The human brain contains trillions of synapses within a vast network of neurons. Synapse remodeling is essential to ensure the efficient reception and integration of external stimuli and to store and retrieve information. Building and remodeling of synapses occurs throughout life under the control of synaptic organizer proteins.
Intracellular transport delivers cellular cargoes to and from their sites of action. Neurons are characterized by a polar and excitable nature and require the precise delivery of mrnas, proteins and organelles to specific subcellular domains. Multiple motor protein complexes have been identified that actively transport synaptic cargoes along microtubules and actin filaments in both anterograde.
Traffic scenarios like multi-lane intersections can be setup by defining the road network (lanes and intersections) along with specifications that control traffic conditions. To simulate traffic, users have control over the types of vehicles, road paths, vehicle density, and departure times.
Synaptic plasticity, the ability of synapses to change in strength, requires alterations in synaptic molecule compositions over time, and synapses undergo selective modifications on stimulation.
Both proteins showed a slight age-related decline, suggesting a mild decrease in the synaptic vesicular traffic, affecting the dopamine transmission with age that may manifest as minor motor disabilities in the elderly. Mapping the differences in synaptic profiles in differentially susceptible ethnic populations, could reveal interesting insights.
Synaptic plasticity, the ability of synapses to change in strength, requires alterations in synaptic molecule compositions over time, and synapses undergo selective modifications on stimulation. Molecular motors operate in sorting/transport of neuronal proteins; however, the targeting mechanisms that guide and direct cargo delivery remain elusive.

Biologically-inspired neural network for traffic signal control. Urban mobility is a central concern of large cities around the world. The growing urbanization indicates the situation can be even worse. A traffic demand higher than the urban capacity generates traffic congestions, which can be reduced through an efficient traffic signal control.
In this issue of neuron, sweeney and davis present a beautiful characterization of drosophila mutants in a gene named spinster. The results indicate a function of the endocytic pathway in regulating transforming growth factor-β (tgf-β) signaling at the drosophila motor synapse. This study provides important new information at an intersection of several disciplines, including membrane traffic.
16 apr 2019 the vast majority of these synapses are excitatory, which increase the activity of the receiving neuron.
4 dec 2018 the classical view of synapses as the functional contact between presynaptic and postsynaptic neurons has been challenged in recent years.
8 oct 2019 three studies show that synaptic interactions between neurons and glioma cells or cells of breast-cancer-to-brain metastases may promote.
It is a progressive disease that is characterised by symptoms such as impairments in memory functi.
Imagine a traffic light at a busy intersection: when working correctly, the traffic light directs vehicles where they need to go and traffic flows properly. In the brain, the “traffic lights” control the signaling at synapses, which are the intersections between brain cells, or neurons.
Collectively, these results support a model in which snx16 functions at the intersection of a branch point in the endosomal traffic of synaptic growth receptors from the early endosome to either the recycling endosome or to a degradative mvb pathway.
The objective function for a given candidate solution is evaluated as mean stop delay experienced by vehicles at a signalized intersection, where the traffic signals are controlled according to the priorities calculated by the neural network ensemble with the synaptic weights determined by the given solution.
At the heart of synaptic transmission resides the synaptic vesicle cycle - a membrane trafficking pathway in which small membrane-bound vesicles mediate the release of neurotransmitter from presynaptic terminals. The cycle resembles general membrane trafficking and has three phases: vesicle filling.
Vesicles in the reserve pool, in contrast, are extremely reluctant to traffic to the presynaptic membrane for fusion, and their function in neuronal signaling under.
Synapses are the specialized junctions that connect neurons into circuits. They transmit electrical information between neurons either directly via gap junctions.
Some studies describe a retrograde traffic pathway from late endosomes to the golgi that is mediated by rab9 and tip47, but other studies dispute these findings. Molecules that follow these pathways include the mannose-6-phosphate receptors that carry lysosomal hydrolases to the endocytic pathway.
Traffic simulated on a real internet backbone routing network for 3000 time steps. We selected the parameters for each algorithm that had the highest bandwidth in figure 2 while being within 1% of the minimum drop penalty for the algorithm.
Several recent clogging of axons by tau, inhibition of axonal traffic and starvation of synapses.
