A schematic of a neuron’s dendrite showing a short, neckless dendritic spine protruding from the dendritic shaft. In neuroanatomy and cellular neuroscience, this subcellular structure represents a postsynaptic compartment within neural tissue of the central nervous system (CNS). It serves as a principal site of glutamatergic excitatory synaptic input, containing a postsynaptic density (PSD) with receptors and signaling machinery that mediate synaptic transmission and plasticity. Hierarchically, it is a spine on a dendrite of a neuron (nerve cell); species not specified.
