Synaptic pruning: Definition, process, and potential uses
Medical News Today,
Synaptic pruning is the process in which the brain removes neurons and synapses that it does not need.

東北大学の松井広教授らは脳内で神経細胞同士がつながる部位「シナプス」を他の細胞が食べることで、記憶の定着が進むことを明らかにした。脳内のグリア細胞がシナプスを含む神経細胞の一部を食べると不要な情報伝達が抑えられ、記憶が形成されると考えられる。アルツハイマー病…
中文摘要 突触修剪是学习和记忆神经环路重塑的一个基本过程。越来越多的证据表明,胶质细胞通过突触吞噬参与了神经环路的塑造。然而,神经胶质细胞参与突触修剪是否在记忆形成中起作用仍不清楚。使用新开发的吞噬报告转基因小鼠和三维超微结构表征,研究人员发现小脑Bergm…
