Caffeine is the most widely consumed psychoactive substance worldwide, yet the long-term consequences of exposure during critical periods of brain development remain incompletely understood. Synaptogenesis represents a vulnerable window during which environmental factors can shape the maturation of neuronal circuits an...

The voltage-gated potassium channel Kv2.1, encoded by the epileptic encephalopathy-associated gene KCNB1, is a primary driver of delayed-rectifier K+ currents in neurons. These currents contribute to high-frequency firing by preventing depolarization block due to Na+ channel inactivation. Wild-type (WT) channels are lo...
It is shown that activation of WNK signaling stabilizes GABAARs at inhibitory synapses, while inhibition enhances receptor internalization, and position the WNK pathway as a master regulator of inhibitory synapse function.
