TL;DR: In conclusion, isoforms of the synaptic vesicle-associated protein synapsin are identified as targets of intrathecally produced IgA and IgG antibodies in a patient with limbic encephalitis and the prevalence and pathogenic relevance of anti-synapsin antibodies in limbicEncephalitis is clarified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies of neurotensin-dopamine receptor interactions in striatal membranes of the male rat. The influence of 6-hydroxydopamine-induced dopamine receptor supersensitivity
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article , conjugated polymer nanoparticles were used to restore visual activities in fully degenerate retinas with intense inner retina rewiring, a stage of the disease in which patients are subjected to prosthetic interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temporal evolution of neurophysiological and behavioral features of synapsin I/II/III triple knock-out mice
Marco Cambiaghi,Marco Cursi,Elena Monzani,Fabio Benfenati,Giancarlo Comi,Fabio Minicucci,Flavia Valtorta,Letizia Leocani +7 more
TL;DR: Data indicate that Syn-TKO mice do not exhibit a linear progression of the epileptic phenotype, with the period corresponding to a higher susceptibility to evoked seizures characterized by background EEG slowing, connected to brain dysfunction often associated to epilepsy in the interictal period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid binding of synapsin I to F- and G-actin: A study using fluorescence resonance energy transfer
TL;DR: Binding of synapsin I to actin can also be demonstrated when synaptic vesicles are present in the medium and appears to be modulated by ionic strength and synapin I phosphorylation.
