    Etienne Herzog
    , Abteilung Molekulare Neurobiologie, , Germany
    J Neurochem 99:1011-8. 2006
    ..As the number of transporter molecules per vesicle affects quantal size, the developmental window where VGLUT1 and VGLUT2 are co-expressed may allow for greater plasticity in the control of quantal release...

    Derya Sargin
    Division of Clinical Neuroscience, Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, Gottingen, Germany
    BMC Biol 9:27. 2011
    ..However, the critical EPO targets in brain are unknown, and separation of direct and indirect effects has remained difficult, given the role of EPO in hematopoiesis and brain oxygen supply...
