| Method |
"To calculate the energy needs of various components
of signaling in the brain, [researchers] analyze the transmitter release triggered by a single action potential passing
through a typical neuron." |
| Comments |
"Summing these estimates for presynaptic Ca2+ entry,
vesicle cycling, postsynaptic actions, and glutamate recycling,
the energy expended per vesicle of glutamate
released is 1.64×10^5 ATP molecules." |
