The Role of Dendritic Inhibition in Shaping the Plasticity of Excitatory Synapses

The Role of Dendritic Inhibition in Shaping the Plasticity of Excitatory Synapses

Using computational tools we explored the impact of local synaptic inhibition on the plasticity of excitatory synapses in dendrites. The latter critically depends on the intracellular concentration of calcium, which in turn, depends on membrane potential and thus on inhibitory activity in particular...
