Hence, the present study provides further evidence of a nongenomic membrane-related action of [T.sub.3] in the mature mammalian
synaptosome. Understanding of the mechanism of action of TH in adult mammalian brain has major implications in the higher mental functions and in the regulation of several neuropsychiatric disorders developed in thyroid dysfunctions in adult humans.
Differential effect of anionic and cationic drugs on the
synaptosome associated acetylcholinesterase activity of dog brain.
Cloning of neuronal mtDNA variants in cultured cells by
synaptosome fusion with mtDNA-less cells.
The resulting compound, called a
synaptosome, was then exposed to serotonin and other brain chemicals.
Comparative studies in
synaptosome formation: the preparation of
synaptosomes from the head ganglion of the squid, Loligo pealii.
It is in high concentration in the electric organ of the electric eel, Eletrophorus Electricus, an adaptation of a
synaptosome that depends on acetyl choline as the neurotransmitter.
To detect Pin1 proteins in detergent-resistant dendritic rafts and PSD,
synaptosome fractions were effectively isolated from the frontal cortical tissues of human AD and normal control brains, and the synaptic markers PSD95 and Shank3 were enriched up to 9 and 8 times in
synaptosome fractions, respectively (Figure 1(b)).
montagui (Richardson et al., 1995), and these might provide an opportunity to examine dynamic aspects of presynaptic channel activity directly in their normal environment, rather than in isolated
synaptosome preparations (Umbach et al., 1984; Edry-Schiller et al., 1991).
Reduced mitochondrial function was observed in in vivo
synaptosome preparations, and although striatal dopamine levels were not decreased, there was an increased dopamine turnover and decreased motor activity.
In addition, the effect to the synapse formation and function were evaluated by setting the numerous spinal densities on dendrite of brain cortex (number of spines per 10 micrometer of dendrites) and mitochondrial function (mitochondrial oxygen efficiency) of hippocampal
synaptosomes (isolated presynaptic terminal) as an index.
