Extracellular matrix inhibits structural and functional plasticity of dendritic spines in the adult visual cortex

Neuronal connectivity in the mature brain is stabilized by the extracellular matrix. This study shows that degradation of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans in the matrix increases connectivity in the adult cortex by causing a large increase in motility and functional plasticity of dendritic spines.

Travelling spindles create necessary conditions for spike-timing-dependent plasticity in humans

Sleep spindles during non-rapid eye movement are important for memory consolidation and require specific neuronal firing conditions in non-human mammals. Here, the authors show these conditions are present in humans, potentially facilitating spike-timing-dependent plasticity.

Toll-like receptor ligands sensitize B-cell receptor signalling by reducing actin-dependent spatial confinement of the receptor

Microbial pathogens can activate both innate and adaptive receptors, and integration of these signals may enhance the sensitivity of the immune response. Freeman et al. show that innate microbial cues sensitize B cells to antigen by increasing actin dynamics and reducing the actin-dependent confinement of the B-cell receptor.

Neuronal adaptation to repetitive stimuli is required for the correct functioning of neuronal networks. Here, the authors show that rapid expansion of the axonal spike-initiation site accompanied by local spike deceleration is the cell adaptation mechanism that responds to repetitive excitatory inputs.

This study shows that tonically active, delta subunit–containing presynaptic GABA_A receptors facilitate excitatory synaptic transmission at hippocampal mossy fiber synapses. Presynaptic GABA_A receptors depolarize presynaptic boutons, enhance calcium entry evoked by action potentials and facilitate LTP induction in mossy fiber–CA3 synapses.

How injured mitochondria are targeted for autophagic degradation is not well understood. Chu and colleagues find that pro-mitophagy stimuli induce externalization of cardiolipin to the outer mitochondrial membrane of neuronal cells, and find that this is required for binding of the autophagy protein LC3 to mitochondria and mitophagy.
