NMDAR-mediated modulation of gap junction circuit regulates olfactory learning in C. elegans
Neural plasticity underlies learning and is regulated by modulation of gap junctions. Here, the authors show that NMDAR- and CaMKII-mediated cell autonomous downregulation of gap junction molecules in a circuit of interneurons facilitates olfactory learning affecting behavior in C. elegans.
