Long-term regulation of voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels by gabapentin.

abstract：:In presynaptic nerve terminals, synaptic vesicles are recycled locally via an evolutionarily conserved process that ensures maintenance of neurotransmission as well as structural integrity of synapses. Temperature is a key environmental factor that impacts critical steps involved in fusion, endocytosis and transport i...
