Plasticity-dependent, full detonation at hippocampal mossy fiber–CA3 pyramidal neuron synapses

Plasticity-dependent, full detonation at hippocampal mossy fiber–CA3 pyramidal neuron synapses

Mossy fiber synapses on CA3 pyramidal cells are 'conditional detonators' that reliably discharge postsynaptic targets. The 'conditional' nature implies that burst activity in dentate gyrus granule cells is required for detonation. Whether single unitary excitatory postsynaptic po...
