Homeostatic Plasticity in the Hippocampus Facilitates Memory Extinction

Homeostatic Plasticity in the Hippocampus Facilitates Memory Extinction

Summary: Correlated activity in the hippocampus drives synaptic plasticity that is necessary for the recruitment of neuronal ensembles underlying fear memory. Sustained neural activity, on the other hand, may trigger homeostatic adaptations. However, whether homeostatic plasticity affects memory fun...
