Cover

Cover: The feeding behavior of the sea slug Aplysia californica is controlled by a relatively simple neural network, making it ideal for studying basic neural mechanisms. Two of these mechanisms are the regulation of spike propagation and synaptic efficacy by sensory neuron B21, which allow the neuron to tightly control the sensory information that reaches the central nervous system. For details see Ludwar BC, Evans CG, Jing J, and Cropper EC. Two Distinct Mechanisms Mediate Potentiating Effects of Depolarization on Synaptic Transmission. J Neurophysiol 102: 1976–1983, 2009. First published July 15, 2009; doi:10.1152/jn.00418.2009.
