2). However, agrin itself is not necessary for the formation of neuron–neuron synapses. This has led to an intensive search for trans-neuronal inducers. Among the candidates are cadherins ...

Multipolar neurons have a single axon and multiple dendrites. They are the most common neuron found in mammalian bodies. Neuron Function Synapses Neural synapses are junctions between neurons that ...

So, if release probability or the number of quanta increases at a given synapse, its efficacy will ... a synaptic input tells the postsynaptic neuron. There are several points of view on how ...

We specifically focus on the role of microglia and astrocytes in reorganization of synapses and neural circuits. We aim to reveal the underlying mechanisms by which the brain adapts to its environment ...

from individual synapses and the zoo of different neuron types, to the detailed connectivity rules between them. To better ...
