Depressed from deprivation? Look to the molecules...

A Kimberley McAllister & W Martin Usrey

A Kimberley McAllister & W Martin Usrey are at the Center for Neuroscience, University of California at Davis, 1544 Newton Court, Davis, California 95616, USA. kmcallister@ucdavis.edu

Heynen and colleagues provide direct evidence for the molecular cascade underlying monocular deprivation, also providing a critical link between changes in sensory experience and a well studied form of synaptic plasticity, long-term depression.
