Activity-dependent synaptic competition and dendrite pruning in developing mitral cells

摘要
En 中文
During the early postnatal period, neurons in sensory circuits dynamically remodel their connectivity to acquire discrete receptive fields. Neuronal activity is thought to play a central role in circuit remodeling during this period: Neuronal activity stabilizes some synaptic connections while eliminating others. Synaptic competition plays a central role in the binary choice between stabilization and elimination. While activity-dependent punishment signals propagating from winner to loser synapses have been hypothesized to drive synapse elimination, their exact nature has remained elusive. In this review, I summarize recent studies in mouse mitral cells that explain how only one dendrite is stabilized while others are eliminated, based on early postnatal spontaneous activity in the olfactory bulb. I discuss how the hypothetical punishment signals act on loser but not winner dendrites to establish only one primary dendrite per mitral cell, the anatomical basis for the odorant receptor-specific parallel information processing in the olfactory bulb.
