Quantitative Simulation of Synaptic Vesicle Release at the Neuromuscular Junction
Nerve signals in the form of action potentials are relayed between neurons through specialized connections called synapses via neurotransmitter released from synaptic vesicles. The release process is Ca2+ dependent, and relies on fusion of neurotransmitter filled synaptic vesicle with the presynapti...
