## Abstract Changing the strength of synaptic connections between neurons is widely assumed to be the mechanism by which memory traces are encoded and stored in the central nervous system. Plastic changes appear to follow a regional specialization and underlie the specific type of memory mediated b

Although the ultimate origin and role of mitochondrial pathology in Parkinson's disease (PD) remains controversial, accumulating data suggest that mitochondrial dysfunction is genetic and plays an important role in neurodegeneration. PD mitochondria display abnormal electron transport chain activity
This book introduces the current concepts of molecular mechanisms in synaptic plasticity and provides a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge research technology used to investigate the molecular dynamics of the synapses. It explores current concepts on activity-dependent remodeling of the synaptic
