Brainstem local microglia induce whisker map plasticity in the thalamus after peripheral nerve injury
Summary: Whisker deafferentation in mice disrupts topographic connectivity from the brainstem to the thalamic ventral posteromedial nucleus (VPM), which represents whisker map, by recruiting “ectopic” axons carrying non-whisker information in VPM. However, mechanisms inducing this plasticity remain...
