Homeostatic synaptic scaling is a form of synaptic plasticity that adjusts the strength of all of a neuron's excitatory synapses up or down to stabilize firing. Current evidence suggests that neurons detect changes in their own firing rates through a set of calcium-dependent sensors that then regulate receptor trafficking to increase or decrease the accumulation of glutamate receptors at synaptic sites. Additional mechanisms may allow local or network-wide changes in activity to be sensed through parallel pathways, generating a nested set of homeostatic mechanisms that operate over different temporal and spatial scales.
稳态突触缩放是一种突触可塑性形式,它可上调或下调神经元所有兴奋性突触的强度,以稳定放电。目前的证据表明,神经元通过一组钙依赖性传感器检测自身放电率的变化,这些传感器随后调节受体转运,以增加或减少突触部位谷氨酸受体的积累。其他机制可能允许通过平行通路感知局部或全网络范围的活动变化,从而产生一套嵌套的稳态机制,这些机制在不同的时间和空间尺度上起作用。
