Human Cerebral Cortex Metaplasticity and Stroke Recovery
Moving back from system to cellular neuroscience, synaptic plasticity is about the strengthening or weakening of the post-synaptic response in reaction of changes of incoming information. However, synapses own also the ability to dynamically tune their sensitivity to the incoming signals in order to re-set the threshold of activity required to undergo LTP or LTD; it can be considered as the plasticity of plasticity or, in one word, the metaplasticity.
