Neurexin regulates the survival of cerebellar granule cells independently of synapses. The findings shed new light on the mechanisms behind neurodevelopmental disorders like schizophrenia and ASD.
Findings reveal the accumulation of the synaptic protein neurexin may be a cause of memory loss associated with Alzheimer's disease.
A new study reveals how three proteins associated with autism and other brain disorders, help to wire up specific areas of the brain responsible for sensory processing.
A new study reveals insights into the pathological mechanisms that cause dysfunctional synapses.
Researchers describe the diversity of neurexin proteins which are essential in the creation of synapses.
A study shows another family of proteins linked to neurodevelopmental disorders regulates the function of neuroligins and neurexins in order to suppress the development of inhibitory synapses.
