Dendrites of individual neurons in the vertebrate central nervous system are contacted by
thousands of synaptic terminals relaying information about the environment. The postsynaptic …

The postsynaptic density (PSD) is a tiny, amorphous structure located beneath the
postsynaptic membrane of synapses in the CNS. Until recently, the molecular composition and …

The complex anatomy of neurons demands a high degree of functional organization. Therefore,
membrane receptors and ion channels are often localized to selected subcellular sites …

The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor subserves synaptic glutamate-induced transmission
and plasticity in central neurons. The yeast two-hybrid system was used to show that …

The relationship of cell proliferation to the temporal expression of genes characterizing a
developmental sequence associated with bone cell differentiation was examined in primary …
