The Synapse

  • In this video Paul Andersen explains how the synapse allows information to travel from one axon to the next. He starts by differentiating between electrical and chemical synapses. He then details the action of the chemical synapse whereby an incoming action potential triggers the opening of voltage-gate Ca2+ channels that trigger the release of neurotransmitters from vesicles into the synaptic cleft. These neurotransmitters dock with receptors and can send either excitatory or inhibitory messages onward. He also explains how long term potentiation can lead to memory formation.

    I personally just want to take the time to thank Paul Anderson for all the time and energy he has put into this. Educating the minds of people across the world, and might I add, for free. All these diagrams, illustrations and presentations in general would take a fair bit of work. Thank you Paul and thanks to your team helping you as-well if there is one.

      I literally have never added a comment to any videos in my 5+ years on youtube but I feel Paul Anderson is more than deserving of it. You really have helped me get through so much of my bio journey and schooling. I appreciate everything you and your team have done and would like to take the time and say thank you. You are by far my most favorite teach that I never had. Hope you're doing well.

      +Cari, Many great influences in science and culture were derived from dreams. I have a massive collection on my blog: ‘Inventions that Came in Dreams: Largest Collection on the Internet.”
      Many inventions, applications of technology, manufacturing processes, songs, books... came in dreams.
      Harry Potter came as a vision to JK Rowling, an unrepentant witch. The song “Yesterday” was not written by Paul McCartney... he saw it in a vision and only wrote down what he saw.
      The stabilizer that was used to finally shoot down Hitler’s V2 rockets... was given to the military by a dentist who invented it... after he saw how it would help the AA guns in a dream.
      God influences the world through dreams. So does the devil (e.g. Harry Potter and the Yesterday song.)

    I wonder if you could describe or show what a synapse to a *capillary* looks like? (Like in both parts of the pituitary, the adenohypophysis and neurohypophysis.) What I'm looking for is the *structure* of that kind of synapse. I have a rudimentary idea of how SAMs (synaptic adhesion molecules, maybe more often today known as synaptic cell adhesion molecules) hold the parts of a chemical *neural* synapse together (which is often left out of diagrams of synapses), so I'm trying to visualize what happens inside the pituitary parts with regard to neurons connecting to the capillaries there.
