efnasynapsa
Efnasynapsa is a hypothetical biological concept that refers to a proposed mechanism of synaptic transmission. In this theoretical model, efnasynapsa suggests that neurotransmitters are not released directly into the synaptic cleft, but are instead stored and transported within specialized vesicular structures that traverse the space between neurons. These structures, termed "efnasomes," would be responsible for carrying neurotransmitters from the presynaptic terminal to the postsynaptic receptor sites. The mechanism would involve the fusion of the efnasome with the presynaptic membrane, followed by the release of the neurotransmitter-carrying vesicle into the extracellular space. The efnasome would then migrate across the synaptic cleft, potentially guided by molecular cues, and subsequently fuse with the postsynaptic membrane, delivering its neurotransmitter cargo.
While the traditional model of synaptic transmission involves direct release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft
