Researchers from Kyushu University have developed an innovative technique to non-invasively measure two key signals, membrane ...

The team also identified two ion channels essential for changing membrane voltages triggered by sensory stimulation. A ...

Released glutamate traverses this space by passive diffusion, and because its target glutamate receptors in the postsynaptic neuron are heavily enriched in specialized membrane structures that are ...

Protein aggregation is typical of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and prion diseases such as ...

When a neuron receives a stimulus, changes in membrane voltage (the electrical charge across the neuron cell membrane) trigger the neuron to activate, causing rapid changes in membrane voltage to ...

Researchers at the Chinese University of Hong Kong have developed a laser-based artificial neuron that fully emulates the ...
