Synapses are specialized junctions between neurons in brain that transmit and compute
information, thereby connecting neurons into millions of overlapping and interdigitated …

Nerve terminals are specific sites of action of a very large number of toxins produced by
many different organisms. The mechanism of action of three groups of presynaptic …

Latrophilins (LPHNs) are a small family of G protein-coupled receptors known to mediate the
massive synaptic exocytosis caused by the black widow spider venom α-latrotoxin, but their …

Abstract Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has a very high heritability (0.8),
suggesting that about 80% of phenotypic variance is due to genetic factors. We used the …

It was long ago that group analysis of differential equations became a powerful tool for
studying nonlinear equations and boundary value problems. This analysis was especially …
