MMPs and Soluble ICAM-5 Increase Neuronal Excitability within In Vitro Networks of Hippocampal Neurons

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are zinc-dependent endopeptidases that are released from neurons in an activity dependent manner. Published studies suggest their activity is important to varied forms of learning and memory. At least one MMP can stimulate an increase in the size of dendritic spines,...
