Altered integration of excitatory inputs onto the basal dendrites of layer 5 pyramidal neurons in a mouse model of Fragile X Syndrome

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> To uncover how synaptic integration of feedforward sensory inputs is affected in autism spectrum disorders (ASD), we used two-photon uncaging of caged glutamate to activate two clustered spines in the basal dendrites of layer 5 (L5) pyramidal neurons from a mouse model of Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most common genetic cause of ASD. While subthreshold excitatory inputs integrate linearly in wi...
