While researchers have uncovered many details regarding the roles these SCs play, little is known about how they interact with the muscle's connecting site for motor neuron signalling; the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). The NMJ is composed of a coral-like arrangement of acetylcholine receptors (...
The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is a well-studied chemical synapse and has served as a tractable model system to clarify how synapse formation occurs. Pro... F.,Ono - 《Science Signaling》 被引量: 23发表: 2008年 Imaging/ImaginingAirForceIdentity:"Hap"Arnold,WarnerBros.,andtheFormationoftheUS...
and secondary metabolites, predominantly extracellular molecules that facilitate a microbe’s interaction with its environment. While our knowledge of primary metabolism and its web of interconnected intermediates is quantitative and holistic, significant knowledge gaps ...
A novel epitope of entactin is present at the mammalian neuromuscular junction The extracellular matrix (ECM) at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is biochemically and functionally specialized, and bears molecules that can regulate bot... AY Chiu,J Ko - 《Journal of Neuroscience》 被引量: 40发表...
Mamba venom acetylcholine targets principally vascular muscarinic receptors promoting vasodilation, the nicotinic neuromuscular junction and, probably secondarily, central nicotinic receptors [4]. Mamba venoms employ an excitatory strategy. In addition to containing acetylcholine, they also possess dendrotoxins,...
A cholinergic crisis is a situation in which one of the body's neuromuscular junction points becomes excessively stimulated. This...
