Transmission at the retino-geniculate synapse in cats is influenced by the structure of pre- and postsynaptic spike trains.
An electron microscopic study of synapse formation, receptor outer segment development, and other aspects of developing mouse retina.
In the turtle visual system, color opponency is found in the first synapse between cones and horizontal cells.
There are also examples of synapse elimination that leave more than one input onto the target.
The principal input to these circuits are thalamic afferents that synapse on excitatory cells with spiny dendrites.
Interestingly, astrocytic coverage of the axon- spine interface varies highly from synapse to synapse.
Thus, astrocytes have the ability to continuously redefine their shape, possibly to match the activity level of the synapse and modulate neurotransmission.
Dashed lines represent pathways that are no longer present and empty circles signify pathways with at least one synapse.
