Long-term potentiation--a decade of progress?
نویسندگان
چکیده
Long-term potentiation of synaptic transmission in the hippocampus is the leading experimental model for the synaptic changes that may underlie learning and memory. This review presents a current understanding of the molecular mechanisms of this long-lasting increase in synaptic strength and describes a simple model that unifies much of the data that previously were viewed as contradictory.

Low-power density of 950 MHz radiation does not affect long-term potentiation in rat dentate gyrus
Introduction: Over the last decade, exposure to non-ionizing electromagnetic waves due to base station antenna has increased. This in vivo study was planned for evaluating the effects of whole-body exposure to 950 MHz field of GSM mobile phone system on rat dentate gyrus long-term potentiation. Materials and Methods: 24 naive male Wistar rats (3 month old, 225|¡|25 g) were randomly divided in t...
متن کاملBlock of 5-HT2 Receptors Enhances Hippocampal Long-Term Potentiation
The effect of endogenous serotonin on long-term potentiation (LTP) in region CAI was studied by blocking 5-HT2 receptors with ketanserin in rat hippocampal slices. Such a block significantly en-hanced long-term potentiation of the CAI population spike induced by high frequency stimulation of the schaffer collateral/ commissural pathway. This implies that serotonin acts on 5-HT2 receptors in CAI...

Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a process that certain types of synaptic stimulation lead to a long-lasting enhancement in the strength of synaptic transmission. Studies in recent years indicate the importance of molecular pathways in the development of memory and learning. Tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) is a member of the neurotrophin receptor tyrosine kinase family, that its ligand is b...
متن کاملP13: Potassium Channels and Long-Term Potentiation Formation
Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a form of activity-dependent plasticity that occurs during learning. Potassium channels are the most diverse group of all ion channels that related to synaptic plasticity. Small-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (SKs) are found in hippocampal CA1 neurons and by inhibiting of postsynaptic potentials are involved in synaptic transmission impairment. ...
متن کاملP6: Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor-Dependent Role in the Formation of Long-Term Potentiation
Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a reflection of synaptic plasticity that induced by specific patterns of synaptic activity and has an important role in learning and memory. The first clue of the potential role of glutamate receptors in LTP was in 1991 with the observation that the mGluR agonists 1-amino-1, 3-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid (ACPD), increased LTP. Studies have shown that ACPD induc...
