F-actin-dependent regulation of NESH dynamics in rat hippocampal neurons.

Synaptic plasticity is an important feature of neurons essential for learning and memory. Postsynaptic organization and composition are dynamically remodeled in response to diverse synaptic inputs during synaptic plasticity. During this process, the dynamics and localization of postsynaptic proteins...

description Synaptic plasticity is an important feature of neurons essential for learning and memory.
