Dysregulation of Microtubule Stability Impairs Morphofunctional Connectivity in Primary Neuronal Networks

Functionally related neurons assemble into connected networks that process and transmit electrochemical information. To do this in a coordinated manner, the number and strength of synaptic connections is tightly regulated. Synapse function relies on the microtubule (MT) cytoskeleton, the dynamics of...
