peripheral neurons. Transmitter release from mammalian central nerve terminals, however, is …

The modulation of voltage-dependent calcium channels by hormones and neurotransmitters
has important implications for the control of many Ca 2+ -dependent cellular functions …

Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are fixed and abundant in the genomes of vertebrates.
Circumstantial evidence suggests that ERVs play a role in mammalian reproduction, particularly …
