Difference between Synaptic scaling and Tetrodotoxin

Synaptic scaling vs. Tetrodotoxin

In neuroscience, synaptic scaling (or homeostatic scaling) is a form of homeostatic plasticity, in which the brain responds to chronically elevated activity in a neural circuit with negative feedback, allowing individual neurons to reduce their overall action potential firing rate. Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a potent neurotoxin.

Similarities between Synaptic scaling and Tetrodotoxin

Synaptic scaling and Tetrodotoxin have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Action potential, Central nervous system, Neuron.

Action potential

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise.

Neuron

A neuron, also known as a neurone (British spelling) and nerve cell, is an electrically excitable cell that receives, processes, and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals.
