Genetic background mutations drive neural circuit hyperconnectivity in a fragile X syndrome model
Abstract Background Neural circuits are initially assembled during development when neurons synapse with potential partners and later refined as appropriate connections stabilize into mature synapses while inappropriate contacts are eliminated. Disruptions to this synaptogenic process impair connect...
