Synaptic competition sculpts the development of GABAergic axo-dendritic but not perisomatic synapses.

Synaptic competition sculpts the development of GABAergic axo-dendritic but not perisomatic synapses.

The neurotransmitter GABA regulates many aspects of inhibitory synapse development. We tested the hypothesis that GABAA receptors (GABAARs) work together with the synaptic adhesion molecule neuroligin 2 (NL2) to regulate synapse formation in different subcellular compartments. We investigated mice (...
