Structural plasticity can produce metaplasticity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:Synaptic plasticity underlies many aspect of learning memory and development. The properties of synaptic plasticity can change as a function of previous plasticity and previous activation of synapses, a phenomenon called metaplasticity ...

Spinal Metaplasticity in Respiratory Motor Control

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2015
A hallmark feature of the neural system controlling breathing is its ability to exhibit plasticity. Less appreciated is the ability to exhibit metaplasticity, a change in the capacity to express plasticity (ie. plastic plasticity). Recent advances in our

Probabilistic versus incremental presynaptic learning in biological plausible synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper, the presynaptic rule, a classical rule for hebbian learning, is revisited. It is shown that the presynaptic rule exhibits relevant synaptic properties like synaptic directionality, and LTP metaplasticity (long-term potentiation threshold ...

Optimal storage and recall with biologically plausible synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Synaptic plasticity is widely accepted to underlie learning and memory. Yet, models of associative networks with biologically plausible synapses fail to match brain performance: memories stored in such networks are quickly overwritten by ongoing ...

Metaplastic and Energy-Efficient Biocompatible Graphene Artificial Synaptic Transistors for Enhanced Accuracy Neuromorphic Computing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
CMOS-based computing systems that employ the von Neumann architecture are relatively limited when it comes to parallel data storage and processing. In contrast, the human brain is a living computational signal processing unit that operates with extreme parallelism and energy efficiency.

Accumulation of Dense Core Vesicles in Hippocampal Synapses Following Chronic Inactivity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The morphology and function of neuronal synapses are regulated by neural activity, as manifested in activity-dependent synapse maturation and various forms of synaptic plasticity.

Metaplasticity A Promising Tool to Disentangle Chronic Disorders of Consciousness Differential Diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The extent of cortical reorganization after brain injury in patients with Vegetative State/Unresponsive Wakefulness Syndrome (UWS) and Minimally Conscious State (MCS) depends on the residual capability of modulating synaptic plasticity.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation provides means to assess cortical plasticity and excitability in humans with fragile X syndrome and autism spectrum disorder

open access: yesFrontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2010
Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is the most common heritable cause of intellectual disability. In vitro electrophysiologic data from mouse models of FXS suggest that loss of Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) affects intracortical excitability and ...

The Effects of Priming Intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation on Movement-Related and Mirror Visual Feedback-Induced Sensorimotor Desynchronization

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
The potential benefits of priming intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) with continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) have not been examined in regard to sensorimotor oscillatory activities recorded in electroencephalography (EEG).
