Activity-dependent modulation of inhibition in Purkinje cells by TrkB ligands
Abstract
In the cerebellum in vitro TrkB receptor ligands promote activity-dependent inhibitory synaptogenesis of Purkinje cells and also modulate inhibitory synaptic function. This mini review examines the roles of TrkB receptor activation by BDNF particularly in relation to activity-dependent synaptic plasticity on Purkinje cells and recent studies on the acute modulation of GABAergic synapses by BDNF.
