Biological process

down regulation of short-term neuronal synaptic plasticity, down-regulation of short-term neuronal synaptic plasticity, downregulation of short-term neuronal synaptic plasticity

A process that decreases short-term neuronal synaptic plasticity, the ability of neuronal synapses to change in the short-term as circumstances require. Short-term neuronal synaptic plasticity generally involves increasing or decreasing synaptic sensitivity.

Note that the syntax of the definition of this term is different from the usual regulation syntax because it describes regulation of a trait rather than regulation of a process.
