thereby enhancing the probability that synaptic plasticity will occur. This form of homeostasis, unlike classic synaptic scaling, produces qualitative as well as quantitative changes in synaptic ...

Synaptic plasticity—a cellular mechanism whereby the strength of synaptic connections between neurons strengthens or weakens ...

New research from the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience published this week in Nature has identified a key step ...

Development of neuronal circuits involves a period during which synaptic connectivity is dynamically refined to its adult functions in an activity-dependent manner. During this early development, ...

Unfortunately, there continues to be a very negative public view of ECT, partly due to its portrayal in the media.

The group focuses on studying the mechanisms guiding activity-dependent development of glutamatergic circuitry in the limbic system and in particular, the roles of ionotropic glutamate receptors in ...

Within Tibetan medicine, the medicinal herb Terminalia chebula (T. chebula) is well-known for its extensive therapeutic ...

The mossy fibers were periodically stimulated with electrical spikes to induce synaptic plasticity, a fundamental biological ...
