Purinergic signaling in cochlear supporting cells reduces hair cell excitability by increasing the extracellular space
Neurons in developing sensory pathways exhibit spontaneous bursts of electrical activity that are critical for survival, maturation and circuit refinement. In the auditory system, intrinsically generated activity arises within the cochlea, but the molecular mechanisms that initiate this activity rem...
