TREK-1 Null Impairs Neuronal Excitability, Synaptic Plasticity, and Cognitive Function.

abstract：:Retrograde signaling is defined as the signaling events leading from the plastids to the nucleus in plants and across the chemical synapse, from the postsynaptic neuron to the presynaptic neuron in animals. The discovery of various retrograde messengers has opened many avenues and clouds of thoughts as to the role of ...
