N-Methyl-D-aspartate ionotropic glutamate receptors (NMDARs) play key roles in
synaptogenesis, synaptic maturation, long-term plasticity, neuronal network activity, and …

Involuntary movements, or dyskinesia, represent a debilitating complication of levodopa (L-
dopa) therapy for Parkinson's disease (PD). L-dopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) are ultimately …

The spinal dorsal horn is a major site for the induction and maintenance of mechanical
allodynia, but the circuitry that underlies this clinically important form of pain remains …

BACKGROUND Since it was established that the cognitive brain is formed mostly by an
interconnected network of neurons that communicate at contact sites termed synapses …

Neuronal networks are capable of undergoing rapid structural and functional changes called
plasticity, which are essential for sha** circuit function during nervous system …

The spatiotemporal organization of neurotransmitter receptors in postsynaptic membranes is
a fundamental determinant of synaptic transmission and information processing by the brain …

This review introduces quantum dots (QDs) and explores their properties, synthesis,
applications, delivery systems in biology, and their toxicity. QDs are one of the first …

The interior of a living cell is a crowded, heterogenuous, fluctuating environment. Hence, a
major challenge in modeling intracellular transport is to analyze stochastic processes within …

In the mammalian central nervous system, excitatory glutamatergic synapses harness
neurotransmission that is mediated by ion flow through α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4 …

Experiences, whether they be learning in a classroom, a stressful event, or ingestion of a
psychoactive substance, impact the brain by modifying the activity and organization of …
