摘      要：Synapses are essential structures in the nervous system and normally form between two ***,some occur in a single neuron between the axon and its own dendrites and *** special synapses are known as autapses(or autosynapses or self-synapses)[1].Previous studies have shown that autapses were much more abundant in cultured neurons[2–4]than in the intact brain,so there was suspicion that autapses in vivo may be wiring errors or redundant structures[5].
