| Abstract: | Describes two major activity-dependent mecahnisms for modifying synpases in mice deficient in synaptic vesicle proteins. Relationship between Hebbian and homeostatic plasticity; Implications of developing synaptic inputs that undergo Hebbian correlated firing; Role of global attenuation in increasing synaptic functions in all neurons. |
