Role of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) in synaptic plasticity and neurotransmission in mammalian spinal cord.
Chronic unilateral hemisection (HX) of the adult rat spinal cord diminishes conduction through intact fibers in the ventrolateral funiculus (VLF) contralateral to HX. Intraspinal injections of Chon…

Connectivity reflects coding: A model of voltage-based spike-timing-dependent-plasticity with homeostasis
Electrophysiological connectivity patterns in cortex often show a few strong connections in a sea of weak connections. In some brain areas a large fraction of strong connections are bidirectional, ...

D-aspartate exerts an opposing role upon age-dependent NMDAR-related synaptic plasticity and memory decay
In the present study, we demonstrated that D-aspartate acts as an in vitro and in vivo neuromodulatory molecule upon hippocampal NMDAR transmission. Accordingly, we showed that this D-amino aci…
