How to build a grid cell

Neurons in the medial entorhinal cortex fire action potentials at regular spatial intervals, creating a striking grid-like pattern of spike rates spanning the whole environment of a navigating animal. This remarkable spatial code may represent a neural map for path integration. Recent advances using patch-clamp recordings from entorhinal cortex neurons in vitro and in vivo have revealed how the...

How to build a central synapse: clues from cell culture.

Central neurons develop and maintain molecularly distinct synaptic specializations for excitatory and inhibitory transmitters, often only microns apart on their dendritic arbor. Progress towards understanding the molecular basis of synaptogenesis has come from several recent studies using a coculture system of non-neuronal cells expressing molecules that generate presynaptic or postsynaptic "he...
