Inhibition as a Binary Switch for Excitatory Plasticity in Pyramidal Neurons.

Synaptic plasticity is thought to induce memory traces in the brain that are the foundation of learning. To ensure the stability of these traces in the presence of further learning, however, a regulation of plasticity appears beneficial. Here, we take up the recent suggestion that dendritic inhibiti...
