Is the hippocampal mossy fiber synapse a detonator in vivo? (IN VIVO MOSSY)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2016, Date de fin: 31 mars 2018,

A commonly repeated maxim is that an individual cortical neuron receives synaptic input from tens of thousands of presynaptic partners, with each individual connection carrying only minor weight. In that case, concerted firing by many presynaptic neurons is required to cause an action potential in the postsynaptic neuron. However, there is inconclusive evidence that the mossy fiber synapse (the se...
