There, the vesicles fuse to the surface of the pre-synaptic terminal and release their passengers—the neurotransmitters—into the synaptic space between the neurons.

Similarly, in the pre-synaptic terminal, vesicles unable to carry neurotransmitters might be the cause of neuronal diseases. Therefore, the ability to track these vesicles might reveal important ...

Vesicles were captured at small, discrete active zones near the terminal surface. An electric stimulus caused them to undergo rapid exocytosis, seen as the release of a fluorescent lipid from the ...

Mechanisms to separately regulate synaptic vesicle release ... calcium signals through different channels could be functionally separated at the nanometer scale of the presynaptic terminal, ...

Therefore, before the action potential even arrives at the presynaptic terminal, vesicles containing neurotransmitter line up in a fusion-ready state at docking sites in the presynaptic terminal.
