Abstract RRibbon synapses of cochlear inner hair cells (IHCs)

Authors Tan C, de Nola G, Qiao C, Imig C, Born RT, Brose N, Kaeser PS Journal eLife Citation eLife 11:e79077. Abstract Active zones consist of protein scaffolds that are tightly attached to the presynaptic plasma membrane. They dock and prime synaptic vesicles, couple them to voltage-gated Ca2+ channels, and

Abstract The transcription factor Oct4 is essential for the maintenance and induction of stem cell pluripotency, but its functional roles are not

Authors Heo D, Ling JP, Molina-Castro GC, Langseth AJ, Waisman A, Nave KA, Möbius W, Wong PC, Bergles DE Journal Elife Citation eLife. 2022 Mar 21;11:e75230. Abstract Generation of oligodendrocytes in the adult brain enables both adaptive changes in neural circuits and regeneration of myelin sheaths destroyed by injury, disease,

Authors Wegner W, Steffens H, Gregor C, Wolf F, Willig KI Journal Elife Citation eLife 2022;11:e73603. Abstract Synaptic plasticity underlies long-lasting structural and functional changes to brain circuitry and its experience-dependent remodeling can be fundamentally enhanced by environmental enrichment. It is however unknown, whether and how the environmental enrichment alters

Abstract For the first time, we have used phase-contrast X-ray tomography to characterize the three-dimensional (3d) structure of cardiac tissue

Authors Grabner CP, Moser T Journal Elife Citation Elife. 2021 Oct 7;10:e63844. Abstract Rod photoreceptors (PRs) use ribbon synapses to transmit visual information. To signal ‘no light detected’ they release glutamate continually to activate post-synaptic receptors. When light is detected glutamate release pauses. How a rod’s individual ribbon enables this
