Antidromic-rectifying gap junctions amplify chemical transmission at functionally mixed electrical-chemical synapses
Emerging evidence suggests that chemical and electrical synapses interact to regulate the strength of synaptic transmission. Liuet al. report that in a C. elegansescape circuit, functionally mixed electrical-chemical synapses exist between premotor interneurons and downstream motor neurons, and that...

description |
Emerging evidence suggests that chemical and electrical synapses interact to regulate the strength of synaptic transmission. Liuet al. report that in a C. elegansescape circuit, functionally mixed electrical-chemical synapses exist between premotor interneurons and downstream motor neurons, and that the electrical synapse amplifies the chemical transmission between the neurons. |
