Short- and long-term neuronal plasticity in hippocampal CA1 region of rat
(2010-06-14)
The brain is highly plastic, displaying both short- and long-term changes, resulting from developmental processes as well as learning and memory. Moreover, short-term plasticity such as paired pulse facilitation and ...
Astrocyte-mediated short-term synaptic depression
(2009-09-09)
Short-term synaptic plasticity, the activity-dependent regulation of synaptic efficacy that occurs in the timeframe of milliseconds to seconds, is a fundamental property of the synapse, mostly attributed to changes in ...
Differences in glutamatergic transmission onto interneurons and pyramidal cells in the rat hippocampus
(2010-09-03)
In the human brain there are about 100 billion excitatory glutamatergic neurons and 10 billion inhibitory GABAergic neurons. During development, these neurons are synaptically wired together into neural networks, functionally ...
