Off the beaten track: the molecular structure of long-term memory: three novel hypotheses—electrical, chemical and anatomical (allosteric)
نویسنده
چکیده
This opinion paper reviews three hypotheses relating to the possible molecular events involved in the formation of long-term memories that go beyond the classical theory, which is confined to strengthening Hebbian synapses. The aim of this paper is not to write detailed critiques of these three hypotheses but to present, for the first time in one location, their essential components to engage the interest of the reader in these new ventures.

P3: Mechanisms of TrkB-Mediated Hippocampal Long-Term Potentiation in Learning and Memory
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 کاملNoninvasive Stem Cell Labeling Using USPIO Technique and their Detection with MRI
Background: To date, several imaging techniques to track stem cells are used such as positron emission tomography (PET), single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), Bioluminescence imaging (BLI), fluorescence imaging, CT scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Although, overall sensitivity of MRI compared to SPECT and Bioluminescence techniques are lower, but due to high spatial reso...

This topic is very traditional and basically has been concerned for a long time. A lot of sophisticated vehicle/track interaction model and track dynamic deterioration model have been developed so far. The author also developed a track settlement progress model comprising a vehicle/track interaction model and a track settlement law. Hanging sleepers are usually caused more or less by the dyn...
متن کاملP19: Long-Term Potentiation
The term synaptic plasticity points to a series of persistent changes related to the activity of synapses. Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a reflection of synaptic plasticity that has an important role in learning and memory. LTP is a long-lasting increase of synaptic activity due to enhancement of excitatory synaptic transmission after a high-frequency train of electrical stimulations. Differe...

Accurate flood forecasting is a vital need to reduce its risks. Due to the complicated structure of flood and river flow, it is somehow difficult to solve this problem. Artificial neural networks, such as frequent neural networks, offer good performance in time series data. In recent years, the use of Long Short Term Memory networks hase attracted much attention due to the faults of frequent ne...
