Short-term synaptic plasticity across topographic maps in the electrosensory system

Short-term synaptic plasticity across topographic maps in the electrosensory system

Highlights • Electrosensory information is represented by multiple topographic maps in the ELL. • Short-term plasticity of synaptic feedback is matched to map-specific filtering. • Different synaptic dynamics across maps are best described by distinct mechanisms. • STP in feedback pathways contribut...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Electrosensory information is represented by multiple topographic maps in the ELL. • Short-term plasticity of synaptic feedback is matched to map-specific filtering. • Different synaptic dynamics across maps are best described by distinct mechanisms. • STP in feedback pathways contributes to functional specialization of the sensory maps.
