dendritjei
Dendritjei, also known as dendrites, are slender, branching extensions of neurons that receive signals from other neurons. They play a crucial role in the transmission of electrical and chemical signals within the nervous system. Dendrites are typically covered in spines, small protrusions that enhance the surface area for synaptic connections. These connections allow dendrites to integrate signals from multiple sources, enabling complex neural processing.
The structure and function of dendrites vary depending on the type of neuron. For example, pyramidal neurons,
In addition to their role in signal reception, dendrites are involved in the regulation of synaptic strength
Dendrites are also a target for various neurological disorders. For instance, changes in dendritic morphology and
