The neuromuscular junction is the chemical synapse between motor neurons and skeletal
muscle fibers. It is designed to reliably convert the action potential from the presynaptic …

Synapses, the fundamental unit in neuronal circuits, are critical for learning and memory,
perception, thinking, and reaction. The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is a synapse formed …

Beef sensory quality comprises a suite of traits, each of which manifests its ultimate
phenotype through interaction of muscle physiology with environment, both in vivo and post …

An increasing number of primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) have been identified over the
last decade, which are caused by deleterious mutations in genes encoding for proteins …

Parasites causing malaria need to migrate in order to penetrate tissue barriers and enter
host cells. Here we show that the actin filament-binding protein coronin regulates gliding …

Introduction: Signal transduction at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is compromised in a
diverse array of diseases including myasthenia gravis, Lambert-Eaton myasthenic …

Background Circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) can be released when myocardial damage
occurs. Methods Here, we used the methylated CpG tandem amplification and sequencing …

Junctional folds are unique membrane specializations developed progressively during the
postnatal maturation of vertebrate neuromuscular junctions (NMJs), but how they are formed …

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a disease of the postsynaptic neuromuscular junction (NMJ)
where nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptors (AChRs) are targeted by autoantibodies …

Coronins are involved in the regulation of actin dynamics in a multifaceted way, participating
in cell migration and vesicular trafficking. Apicomplexan parasites, which exhibit an actin …
