Glutamate induces de novo growth of functional spines in developing cortex

Mature cortical pyramidal neurons receive excitatory inputs onto small protrusions emanating from their dendrites called spines. Spines undergo activity-dependent remodeling, stabilization, and pruning during development and similar structural changes can be triggered by learning and changes in sens...
