What is a synapse?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2025
- Oh synapse! Time to connect the dots…I mean neurons. Each neuron is separated from its neighbors, so how exactly does a message get passed from one neuron to the next? Through the synapse, of course! Take a closer look at the basic structure of the synapse, the two synapse types (electrical vs. chemical), and the different synapse receptors. Get the message? Good.
Big thank you to Leo Torres for translating this video and providing us with Spanish subtitles. You can find him on Twitter at @leocogsci or on his blog at leocogsci.word...

This is wonderful!!! Love how simple and straightforward it is!!
+dappled willow Thanks so much for the kind words! We're glad you enjoyed it and hope that you'll find our other videos as helpful!
This was so insanely useful you have no idea
Wow when I grow up I want to talk like you!!! very helpful Keep up the good work. I understood in 6 minutes something that I was not understanding in two years!!! Good on you!!!
Narrating pace is fast..... that of the electrical synapse. Since it's educational why not slow...that of the chemical synapse so that the message is WELL understood. Thnx for the clarity.
I remember learning some of this in my intro to physiology class this semester. I couldn't recite any of that back though.
Wow
I found this channel more yours❤️ videos .And couple of days later is my PHYSIO exam so Im multitasking -( Preparation) and (love at the first site ) at the same time . 👌☺️😉❤️
im currently a first year graduate neuroscience student and these videos are great, especially for someone with no previous experience in the field till now! Will you be doing videos on different experimental techniques/ design such as voltage/current clamp?? Tnx!
+Christiann Hill We love getting these comments! So happy to hear more people going into neuroscience. There are a lot of topics that we want to cover and we're always adding based on comments we get. Experiment design/procedure could be interesting.We will add these items to our list!
best video
I have a neurobio test but im falling in looove
all respect for you

What about neurotransmitters like Serotonin or Dopamine? How do they work? What effects do they have on the neuron? and how and why do they affect the big picture?
For example, why does dopamine make you happy? Does it guide the neurons to trigger a set of "Happy" neurons which in turn tell the reward center of the brain to tell you to do more of whatever you're doing? Does this mean that there are hidden channels made by neurotransmitters?
Similarly, what tells a neuron to release a certain neurotransmitter and not another?
Also, love your videos!
When a video game character has a name whose meaning you dont know
Can you please explain in your next episode of Cognizant? how neurotransmission is converted into consciousness?
How presynaptic terminal and postsynaptic terminal are staying together, when there is actually gap between them?
Great question! The answer is...astrocytes! We actually made a video about them if you wanna check it out. :)
Thanks! How asstrocytes know to keep this exact distance? Its have to be very precise
from wikipedia (Chemical synapse): A typical neuron gives rise to several thousand synapses... How astrocytes can control them all? Also neuro plasticity...synapses are changing. How it is controlled/ maintained?
The pre- and postsynaptic membranes are actually connected to one another through "adhesion molecules." For example, there is a class of proteins called neuroligins. They are found in postsynaptic membranes and they bind to proteins on presynaptic membranes called neurexins. These types of connections hold the two neurons close together, but maintain a gap between them (i.e. the synaptic cleft). These protein interactions also help the synapse to form in the first place.
Is it true that the human brain has 1000 trillion synapse? If so then that is as many synapse as there are stars... in 10,000 galaxies the size of the Milky Way. Also, you're missing a book from your library: The Dancing Wu Li Masters.
?From where the ions come before it get in the cell
So a synapse is not a characteristic; it’s a concept? It’s something that is happening as in a chain reaction?
Is glutamate the same as L-glutamine?
Very nice video. However, the Homer Simpson grey curtain of Doh! descended over my eyes and my brain said I'm outta here.......I'm going to the "Girls Fail" videos now.....I'll sneak back when the brain isn't paying attention......:)
i understand but when time to recite its very difficult..wondering if im cut of for this stuff?!...
+Colleen Lazore Keep working at it! You may have problems remembering under pressure, but if you are passionate and dedicated, you will do well. Remember, practice makes perfect...lots and lots of practice.

can you make some translate for this video in english
Rizki Ramadan Hey! It actually already has English subtitles. Go to CC at the bottom of the video and select the language you want!
@@neurotransmissions woosh
It is wHat it is
Anyone 2025 😅
:)
Can you please move a little bit slow
xkito
it was a nice....
but can u explain it in English.
lol
Lol
