Stability and Function of Hippocampal Mossy Fiber Synapses Depend on Bcl11b/Ctip2

Structural and functional plasticity of synapses are critical neuronal mechanisms underlying learning and memory. While activity-dependent regulation of synaptic strength has been extensively studied, much less is known about the transcriptional control of synapse maintenance and plasticity. Hippoca...
