The interplay between homeostatic synaptic scaling and homeostatic structural plasticity maintains the robust firing rate of neural networks [PDF]
Critical network states and neural plasticity enable adaptive behavior in dynamic environments, supporting efficient information processing and experience-dependent learning.

A functional screen uncovers circular RNAs regulating excitatory synaptogenesis in hippocampal neurons [PDF]
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are an expanding class of largely unexplored RNAs which are prominently enriched in the mammalian brain. Here, we systematically interrogate their role in excitatory synaptogenesis of rat hippocampal neurons using RNA ...

Serotonin drives a novel GABAergic synaptic current recorded in rat cerebellar purkinje cells: a lugaro cell to Purkinje cell synapse [PDF]
We recorded a novel fast GABAergic synaptic current in cerebellar Purkinje cells in rat brain slices using patch-clamp techniques. Because of a relatively low sensitivity to bicuculline, these currents can be recorded under conditions in which basket ...

Experience-dependent synapse refinement is essential for functional optimization of neural circuits. However, how sensory experience sculpts excitatory synaptic transmission is poorly understood.

Modeling Maintenance of Long-Term Potentiation in Clustered Synapses, Long-Term Memory Without Bistability [PDF]
Memories are stored, at least partly, as patterns of strong synapses. Given molecular turnover, how can synapses maintain strong for the years that memories can persist?
