Advantages of Acute Brain Slices Prepared at Physiological Temperature in the Characterization of Synaptic Functions

Acute brain slice preparation is a powerful experimental model for investigating the characteristics of synaptic function in the brain. Although brain tissue is usually cut at ice-cold temperature (CT) to facilitate slicing and avoid neuronal damage, exposure to CT causes molecular and architectural...
