Calcium Signaling

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 1131))

Abstract

Synaptic plasticity is a fundamental property of neurons referring to the activity-dependent changes in the strength and efficacy of synaptic transmission at preexisting synapses. Such changes can last from milliseconds to hours, days, or even longer and are involved in learning and memory as well as in development and response of the brain to injuries. Several types of synaptic plasticity have been described across neuronal types, brain regions, and species, but all of them share in one way or another capital importance of Ca2+-mediated processes. In this chapter, we will focus on the Ca2+-dependent events necessary for the induction and expression of multiple forms of synaptic plasticity.
