Model of Astrocyte Regulation of Spike-Timing-Dependent Plasticity

This research paper presents a pioneering model that focuses on the regulation of spike-timing-dependent plasticity via astrocytes, a crucial aspect related to learning and memory. Astrocytes modulate synaptic transmission depression, inducing distinct changes in synaptic weight evolution compared to classical STDP. This underscores the importance of astrocytic regulation in shaping synaptic plasticity dynamics.
