Dual roles for an intracellular calcium-signaling pathway in regulating synaptic homeostasis and neuronal excitability

Neurons are specialized cells that communicate via electrical and chemical signaling. It is well-known that homeostatic mechanisms exist to potentiate neuronal output when activity falls. Likewise, while neurons rely on excitable states to function, these same excitable states must be kept in check...
