Synaptic adaptations by alcohol and drugs of abuse: changes in microRNA expression and mRNA regulation
Local translation of mRNAs is a mechanism by which cells can rapidly remodel synaptic structure and function. There is ample evidence for a role of synaptic translation in the neuroadaptations resulting from chronic drug use and abuse. Persistent and coordinated changes of many mRNAs, globally and l...
