## Abstract Individual neurons display characteristic firing patterns determined by the number and kind of ion channels in their membranes. We describe experimental and computational studies that suggest that neurons use activity sensors to regulate the number and kind of ion channels and receptors

## Abstract This paper concerns the banding pattern produced in the inner plexiform layer of rat retina by glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) immunocytochemistry. It presents a comparison of this pattern with the dendritic stratification of neurons that are reasonable candidates for GABAergic amacri
Glutamate regulation of a variety of aspects of dendrite development may be involved in neuronal plasticity and neuropathology. In this study, we examine the calcium-dependent pathways and alterations in the microtubule (MT) cytoskeleton that may mediate glutamate-induced changes in the pattern of d
