synaptic

synaptic nerve endings; the synaptic phase in meiosis.

Synaptic activity is staggering: 10 quadrillion (1016) neural connections a second.

Short term tolerance can be caused by depleted levels of neurotransmitters within the vesicles available for release into the synaptic cleft following subsequent reuse (tachyphylaxis).

The synaptic connection between neurons allows for communication in the brain.

Synaptic plasticity is crucial for learning and memory.

Neurotransmitters play a key role in synaptic transmission.

Excessive alcohol consumption can disrupt synaptic function.

Researchers are studying the mechanisms of synaptic pruning.

Synaptic vesicles store neurotransmitters before release.

Synaptic clefts are the gaps between neurons where neurotransmitters travel.

Alzheimer's disease is associated with synaptic dysfunction.

Long-term potentiation is a form of synaptic plasticity.

The brain undergoes synaptic pruning during development.
