Conteúdo: | <P>The Architecture of the Presynaptic Release Site -- Multiple modes of fusion and retrieval at the calyx of Held synapse -- Roles of SNARE proteins in synaptic vesicle fusion -- Roles and sources of calcium in synaptic exocytosis -- Regulation of presynaptic calcium channels -- Synaptotagmin: transducing Ca<SUP>2+</SUP>-binding to vesicle fusion -- Functional interactions between the SNARE regulators UNC-13, tomosyn and UNC-18 -- Roles of the ELKS/CAST family and SAD kinase in Neurotransmitter Release -- The role of potassium channels in the regulation of neurotransmitter release -- Modulation of neurotransmitter release and presynaptic plasticity by protein phosphorylation -- Synaptic Vesicle Endocytosis -- Lipids and secretory vesicle exocytosis -- Neurotransmitter reuptake and synaptic vesicle refilling -- Regulation of neurotransmitter release by presynaptic receptors -- Trans-synaptic regulation of presynaptic release machinery in central synapses by cell adhesion molecules -- Differential regulation of small clear vesicles and large dense-core vesicles.</P>.<P>Within the complex neuronal network&nbsp;of the nervous system, neuron-to-neuron communication occurs mainly through chemical synapses, where the presynaptic nerve terminal releases neurotransmitters&nbsp;that control the function of postsynaptic neurons by acting on postsynaptic receptors.&nbsp; Recent decades have brought groundbreaking new developments and a wealth of knowledge to this field.&nbsp; In <EM>Molecular Mechanisms of Neurotransmitter Release</EM>, leading experts provide concise, up-to-date information on all major molecular mechanisms involved, with complete background information and figures and diagrams to further elucidate key concepts or experiments.</P> <P>Comprehensive and cutting-edge, <EM>Molecular Mechanisms of Neurotransmitter Release</EM> is sure to provide a learning tool for neuroscience students, a solid reference for neuroscientists, and a source of knowledge for&nbsp;all those&nbsp;who have a general interest in the ever-evolving field of neuroscience.</P>
