Extracellular proteolysis in structural and functional plasticity of mossy fiber synapses in hippocampus
Brain is continuously altered in response to experience and environmental changes. One of the underlying mechanisms is synaptic plasticity, which is manifested by modification of synapse structure and function. It is becoming clear that regulated extracellular proteolysis plays a pivotal role in the...
