Pre-Sensory Spontaneous Activity Accelerates Coordinated Maturation of Synaptic Partners and Drives Transition to the Mature Physiological Phenotype

Daniel T. Heller, Nikollas Moreira Benites, Emily M. Amick…·George A. Spirou

The paper shows that pre-sensory spontaneous activity initiates and drives synaptic maturation but can be partially compensated for in its absence.

Dendritic speeding of synaptic potentials in an auditory brainstem principal neuron

Geetha Srinivasan, André Dagostin, Richardson Naves Leão…·Henrique von Gersdorff

The paper investigates the functional role of dendrites in MNTB neurons, finding that dendritic growth reduces EPSP decay time, enhancing signal precision.
