Scientists have determined structures of a transporter protein involved in the movement of neurochemicals such as serotonin and dopamine, unearthing multiple mechanisms that can guide drug development ...
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter important for mood, digestion, and sleep. You can increase serotonin levels naturally through exercise and sunlight. Serotonin is a naturally occurring monoamine ...
Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital have drawn on structural biology expertise to determine structures of vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2), a key component of neuronal ...
A collaborative effort between Mount Sinai and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center has shed valuable light on how monoamine neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, and now histamine help ...
Neurons talk to each other using chemical signals called neurotransmitters. Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have drawn on structural biology expertise to determine structures of ...
Also referred to as chemical messengers, neurotransmitters are chemical agents made and released by neurons. They are stored in vesicles at the terminal end (presynaptic terminal) of a neuron. Their ...
Stanford University researchers developed a tissue-mimicking, stretchable sensor termed NeuroString for real-time measurement of neurotransmitter dynamics in vivo in the brain, gut, and other soft ...
The overarching goal of our research is to develop a clear understanding of the molecules and pathways involved in the pathoetiology of brain disorders and to use this information to develop new ...
