Presynaptic Vesicle

Presynaptic vesicles

Synapses provide contact between nerve cells, transmit information and coordinate nerve signals. However, the transfer of information does not occur instantly, but takes a certain time. One of the main features of synapses is the presence of presynaptic vesicles, which contain various signaling molecules and chemicals.



Presynaptic vesicles are one of the important components of the nervous system. They play an important role in transmitting signals between neurons and other cell types, such as smooth muscle or other neurons. In this article we will look at what presynaptic vesicles are, how they are formed and what functions they perform.

Presynaptic or vesicula pressinaptica vesicles are small structures that are located on the surface of presynaptic processes of axons (nerve fibers) at the points of their contact with other nerve fibers or with specialized neurons, i.e. at the site of synapses. But at the same time they arise at some distance from the point of contact!* *The presynaptic system is a powerful mechanism for regulating the transmission of information in the brain. It is also important for understanding the pathogenesis of many brain diseases.* The syntagma is a self-forming vesicle at the presynaptic terminal. These vesicles help regulate signaling in neurons by decreasing or increasing the amount of neurotransmitters released into the synaptic cleft.

Despite the fact that presynaptic vesicles play a major role in many mental disorders, as well as in a number of diseases, their biological function has not yet been fully studied. It is only known that functional disorders of these elements are one of the causes of epileptic activity, often reversing
