... Stimulation of axons that results in action potentials that travel in a direction opposite to the normal (physiological) direction. When such action potentials reach the cell body of the axon, the waveform contains no indication of a synaptic trigger, and thus a physiologist can discriminate antidro ...

The retrograde tracer cholera toxin β subunit (CTB; List Biological Laboratories) was injected into specific brain regions where the majority of PHAL/pro-TRHcontaining, double-labeled axons were found in the anterograde tract-tracing experiment (0.5% CTB, 6.0 µamps for 11-15 min, pulsed at 7 second ...

It is clear, however, that ARH leptin action represents only one component of leptin action on energy balance, because the deletion of LRb from POMC neurons results in a relatively modest o ...

This reveals that the rods don’t actually synapse with the ganglion layer directly, rather they “go around” the cone network to provide information to the ganglion cells.

Synaptogenesis

Synaptogenesis is the formation of synapses between neurons in the nervous system. Although it occurs throughout a healthy person's lifespan, an explosion of synapse formation occurs during early brain development, known as exuberant synaptogenesis. Synaptogenesis is particularly important during an individual's critical period, during which there is a certain degree of synaptic pruning due to competition for neural growth factors by neurons and synapses. Processes that are not used, or inhibited during their critical period will fail to develop normally later on in life.
