The ratio of NR2A/B NMDA receptor subunits determines the qualities of ocular dominance plasticity in visual cortex
Bidirectional synaptic plasticity during development ensures that appropriate synapses in the brain are strengthened and maintained while inappropriate connections are weakened and eliminated. This plasticity is well illustrated in mouse visual cortex, where monocular deprivation during early postna...
