Message definition (Autapse)
Strictly speaking, an autapse is a synapse from the [[Axon|axon]] of a neuron to one of its [[Dendrite|dendrites]], that is, from its output to its input. However, structures have been found via Eyewire formed as a looped branch in a dendrite that may be either autapses or '''self-touches''' (i.e. not a synapse at all).<ref>Seung, Sebastian (March 20, 2012) [http://forum.eyewire.org/discussion/comment/48#Comment_48 Loops], Eyewire Forums</ref> In EyeWire's 2D view, these generally appear to be branches that move away from the main branch, approach it again, but only touch again along a cell membrane.

Strictly speaking, an autapse is a synapse from the axon of a neuron to one of its dendrites, that is, from its output to its input. However, structures have been found via Eyewire formed as a looped branch in a dendrite that may be either autapses or self-touches (i.e. not a synapse at all).[1] In EyeWire's 2D view, these generally appear to be branches that move away from the main branch, approach it again, but only touch again along a cell membrane.
