Using molecular proximity to refine synapse quantification in neuronal cultures. University of Antwerp
Synapses are specialized connections between neuronal cells that determine the wiringpatterns, which are essential for memory and cognition. Synaptic dysfunction is a commonpathological hallmark of neurodevelopmental and - degenerative conditions. Thus, accurateand reliable quantification of synaptic state and number in neuronal networks is crucial. Inprevious work, we have shown that primary neuronal cultures from rodents preserve ...
