Time-dependent and selective microglia-mediated removal of spinal synapses in neuropathic pain
Summary: Neuropathic pain is a debilitating condition resulting from damage to the nervous system. Imbalance of spinal excitation and inhibition has been proposed to contribute to neuropathic pain.

Summary: Synaptic inhibition is critical for controlling neuronal excitability and function. During global cerebral ischemia (GCI), inhibitory synapses are rapidly eliminated, causing hyper-excitability which contributes to cell-death and the ...

THE FINE STRUCTURE OF INHIBITORY SYNAPSES IN THE CRAYFISH [PDF]
Physiological investigations have shown that the synaptic input to the sensory neuron of the stretch receptor in the abdominal muscles of the crayfish is purely inhibitory. This neuron was chosen, therefore, as a site in which to study the fine structure of inhibitory synaptic endings.

Diurnal rhythms in neurexins transcripts and inhibitory/excitatory synapse scaffold proteins in the biological clock [PDF]
The neurexin genes (NRXN1/2/3) encode two families (α and β) of highly polymorphic presynaptic proteins that are involved in excitatory/inhibitory synaptic balance.

SNX27-Mediated Recycling of Neuroligin-2 Regulates Inhibitory Signaling
Summary: GABAA receptors mediate fast inhibitory transmission in the brain, and their number can be rapidly up- or downregulated to alter synaptic strength.

Excitatory and inhibitory synapse reorganization immediately after critical sensory experience in a vocal learner. [PDF]
Excitatory and inhibitory synapses are the brain’s most abundant synapse types. However, little is known about their formation during critical periods of motor skill learning, when sensory experience defines a motor target that animals strive to imitate.

Differential segregation in a cell-cell contact interface: the dynamics of the immunological synapse [PDF]
Receptor-ligand couples in the cell-cell contact interface between a T cell and an antigen-presenting cell form distinct geometric patterns and undergo spatial rearrangement within the contact interface.

Associative fear learning, resulting from whisker stimulation paired with application of a mild electric shock to the tail in a classical conditioning paradigm, changes the motor behavior of mice and modifies the cortical functional representation of ...

Long-term plasticity at inhibitory synapses [PDF]
Experience-dependent modifications of neural circuits and function are believed to heavily depend on changes in synaptic efficacy such as LTP/LTD. Hence, much effort has been devoted to elucidating the mechanisms underlying these forms of synaptic plasticity.

Inhibitory Synapses Get Madd for Neuroligin [PDF]
The mechanisms mediating the appropriate clustering of neurotransmitter receptors opposite release sites are poorly understood. Two studies in this issue of Neuron, Maro et al. (2015) and Tu et al. (2015), identify a new extracellular effector for neuroligin in GABAergic postsynaptic differentiation.
