The dynamics of axonal arbors during synaptogenesis and their plasticity in the adult nervous system remain poorly understood. Axonal filopodia, which emerge from the shaft of axonal branches and ...

New findings offer clues about how misused drugs affect healthy brains and hint at an undiscovered link between glutamate and mood. A new study shows that healthy people who take attention deficit ...

A new study shows that healthy people who take attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) drugs experience a surge in the neurotransmitter glutamate in key parts of the brain. And that increase ...

Researchers have achieved something long thought almost impossible -- counting the molecules of the neurotransmitter glutamate released when a signal is transferred between two brain cells. With a new ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Seven Tn5 induced mutants unable to use glutamate as sole carbon and nitrogen source were isolated from the effective Rhizobium leguminosarum ...

The amino acids L-glutamate and L-aspartate depolarize H1 horizontal cells in the perfused goldfish retina but only at millimolar concentrations. The effects of L-glutamate (but not of L-aspartate) ...

In the intricate chemical symphony of the brain, glutamate stands as the principal conductor. As the brain's most abundant excitatory neurotransmitter, glutamate facilitates our ability to learn, form ...

PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] -- A new study shows that healthy people who take attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) drugs experience a surge in the neurotransmitter glutamate in key ...
