Skewed distribution of spines is independent of presynaptic transmitter release and synaptic plasticity, and emerges early during adult neurogenesis
Dendritic spines are crucial for excitatory synaptic transmission as the size of a spine head correlates with the strength of its synapse. The distribution of spine head sizes follows a lognormal-like distribution with more small spines than large ones. We analysed the impact of synaptic activity an...
