  • MHC class I: an unexpected role in neuronal plasticity.

    Shatz CJ, Neuron. 2009; 64 (1): 40-5

    For the nervous system to translate experience into memory and behavior, lasting structural change at synapses must occur. This requirement is clearly evident during critical periods of activity-dependent neural development, and accumulating evidence has established a surprising role for the major histocompatibility complex class I (MHCI) proteins in this process.
