Refinement of mammalian neural circuits involves substantial experience-dependent synapse eradication. synaptic pruning through glial glutamate transport during maturation of the mouse cortex. INTRODUCTION Postnatal experience-dependent synapse elimination is crucial for the establishment of properly connected neuronal circuits in the mature brain. Synapse elimination prunes the supernumerary imprecise connections formed during the initial overproduction of synapses… Continue reading Refinement of mammalian neural circuits involves substantial experience-dependent synapse eradication. synaptic
