The Biochemical Model of the Synapse in Turpaev’s Studies

详细

The concept of specific receptors is the basis of the modern pharmacology of neurotransmitters. This article describes the works of Tigran Mel’kumovich Turpaev (1918–2003), during which a receptor protein was isolated for the first time. The centenary of the birth of this outstanding researcher is marked by the organization of an international conference “Physiology and Biochemistry of Signaling Systems”.
