Preliminary analysis of the requirements for fusion from within and fusion from without by Newcastle disease virus.

abstract：:Refinement of neural circuits in the mammalian cerebral cortex shapes brain function during development and in the adult. However, the signaling mechanisms underlying the synapse-specific shrinkage and loss of spiny synapses when neural circuits are remodeled remain poorly defined. Here, we show that low-frequency glu...
