Deficiency in transmitter release triggers homeostatic transcriptional changes that increase presynaptic excitability

Caroline A Cypranowska, Maya Feldthouse, Yoon Gi Choi, Dariya Bakshinska, Rachel Li, Zachary L. Newman, Ehud Y. Isacoff

The paper shows that weakening synaptic transmission in Drosophila larvae leads to transcriptional changes that increase presynaptic excitability.

Synapse-to-synapse plasticity variability balanced to generate input-wide constancy of transmitter release

Krisha Aghi, Ryan Schultz, Zachary L. Newman, Philipe R. F. Mendonça, Rachel Li, Dariya Bakshinska, Ehud Y. Isacoff

The paper shows that synaptic release probability varies across synapses but remains constant overall due to balanced facilitation and depression.
