How we see our environment is the result of a multi-level, parallel processing effort by the central nervous system. This computation is initiated within the retina at the very first synapse in the visual pathway - the photoreceptor ribbon synapse. Two recent studies shed light on the critical role of balanced calcium channel activity in maturation of this highly specialized synapse. (1, 2.)
我们如何感知周围环境是中枢神经系统进行多层次并行处理的结果。这种计算始于视觉通路中的第一个突触——光感受器带状突触,即在视网膜内。最近的两项研究揭示了平衡钙通道活性在这个高度特化突触成熟过程中的关键作用。(1, 2.)
