Circuit function in the CNS relies critically on the balance of excitation and inhibition. In this issue, Mende et al. (pages 1189–1202,Mende et al., 2016, Neuron 90, 1–14 June 15, 2016) use the mouse spinal reflex circuit to propose a model in which coordinated activity-dependent retrograde signals direct the molecular differentiation of axo-axonically synapsing GABAergic terminals. In this model, the inhibitory potency of GABAergic interneurons is increased in response to excitatory activity, such that a homeostatic balance of excitation and inhibition is maintained. The cover image depicts a girl on a tightrope, representing the fine balance both required for, and allowed by, functioning proprioceptive reflex circuits.
