How our nerves keep firing: Biologists see ultrafast recycling of neurotransmitter-filled bubbles

University of Utah and German biologists discovered how nerve cells recycle tiny bubbles or “vesicles” that send chemical nerve signals from one cell to the next. The process is much faster and different than two previously proposed mechanisms for recycling the bubbles. Researchers…
