Synaptic modifications transform neural networks to function without oxygen

Abstract Background Neural circuit function is highly sensitive to energetic limitations. Much like mammals, brain activity in American bullfrogs quickly fails in hypoxia. However, after emergence from overwintering, circuits transform to function for approximately 30-fold longer without oxygen usin...
