English to Italian Medical Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-) regolazione della plasticità sinaptica

Studio di ricerca sulle interazioni tra sinapsi inibitorie e eccitatorie:

To examine the influence of excitatory activity on inhibitory plasticity, researchers studied structural adaptations in inhibitory axons in hippocampal organotypic cultures. Data obtained showed that inhibitory synapses are highly dynamic structures, which are continuously assembled and disassembled and possibly compete with each other along the inhibitory axon. The axons are continuously sampling potential locations for new inhibitory synapses. Axons adjust their **sampling behaviour** in response to changes in neuronal activity.
