Can homeostatic circuits learn and remember?
Alterations in synaptic strength are thought to represent the cellular basis of learning and memory. While such processes appear to be fundamental to all synapses, until recently there has been a relative dearth of information regarding synaptic 'memory' processes in autonomic circuits. Here we examine recent advances in our understanding of plasticity at glutamatergic synapses onto magnocellul...
متن کاملCOVID-19 Control: Can Germany Learn From China?
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak started in China in December 2019 and has developed into a pandemic. Using mandatory large-scale public health interventions including a lockdown with locally varying intensity and duration, China has been successful in controlling the epidemic at an early stage. The epicentre of the pandemic has since shifted to Europe a...
متن کاملDo thin spines learn to be mushroom spines that remember?
Dendritic spines are the primary site of excitatory input on most principal neurons. Long-lasting changes in synaptic activity are accompanied by alterations in spine shape, size and number. The responsiveness of thin spines to increases and decreases in synaptic activity has led to the suggestion that they are 'learning spines', whereas the stability of mushroom spines suggests that they are '...
متن کاملHow many conformations can a protein remember?
We show that a protein can be trained to recognize multiple conformations, analogous to an associative memory, and provide capacity calculations based on energy fluctuations and information theory. Unlike the linear capacity of a Hopfield network, the number of conformations which can be remembered by a protein sequence depends on the size of the amino acid alphabet as lnA, independent of prote...
متن کاملHow we remember what we can do
According to the motor simulation theory, the knowledge we possess of what we can do is based on simulation mechanisms triggered by an off-line activation of the brain areas involved in motor control. Action capabilities memory does not work by storing some content, but consists in the capacity, rooted in sensory-motor systems, to reenact off-line action sequences exhibiting the range of our po...
