The functional upregulation of piriform cortex is associated with cross-modal plasticity in loss of whisker tactile inputs.
<h4>Background</h4>Cross-modal plasticity is characterized as the hypersensitivity of remaining modalities after a sensory function is lost in rodents, which ensures their awareness to environmental changes. Cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying cross-modal sensory plasticity rema...
