introduction: stress is associated with neurological and cognitive disorders. it has been suggested that doxepin, in addition to its influence on the content of neurotransmitters, has probable neuroprotective effects as well. therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of doxepin on synaptic plasticity and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (bdnf) gene expression in the rat h...

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...
