Short-Term Plasticity and Long-Term Potentiation in Magnetic Tunnel Junctions: Towards Volatile Synapses

open access: yes, 2016
Synaptic memory is considered to be the main element responsible for learning and cognition in humans. Although traditionally non-volatile long-term plasticity changes have been implemented in nanoelectronic synapses for neuromorphic applications, recent

Age-dependent loss of PTP and LTP in the hippocampus of PrP-null mice

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2003
We have investigated synaptic function in the hippocampus in mice of different ages carrying a null mutation in the PrP gene. Experiments carried out in vivo and in vitro in two laboratories revealed no differences in the ability of juvenile and young ...

Potentiation Decay of Synapses and the Length Distributions of Synfire Chains Self-organized in Recurrent Neural Networks

open access: yes, 2013
Synfire chains are thought to underlie precisely-timed sequences of spikes observed in various brain regions and across species. How they are formed is not understood. Here we analyze self-organization of synfire chains through the spike-timing dependent

Emulating long-term synaptic dynamics with memristive devices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The potential of memristive devices is often seeing in implementing neuromorphic architectures for achieving brain-like computation. However, the designing procedures do not allow for extended manipulation of the material, unlike CMOS technology, the ...

Locus Coeruleus Optogenetic Light Activation Induces Long-Term Potentiation of Perforant Path Population Spike Amplitude in Rat Dentate Gyrus

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2019
Norepinephrine (NE) in dentate gyrus (DG) produces NE-dependent long-term potentiation (NE-LTP) of the perforant path-evoked potential population spike both in vitro and in vivo. Chemical activators infused near locus coeruleus (LC), the source of DG NE,

Regulation of Neuromodulator Receptor Efficacy - Implications for Whole-Neuron and Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Membrane receptors for neuromodulators (NM) are highly regulated in their distribution and efficacy - a phenomenon which influences the individual cell's response to central signals of NM release.

Long-term potentiation in the hippocampus: discovery, mechanisms and function

open access: yesNeuroforum, 2018
In this review we reflect upon our contributions to the study of the properties and mechanisms of long-term potentiation (LTP) and describe some of the major influences on our work. We then go on to consider whether LTP has fulfilled its early promise of

Convergent evidence for abnormal striatal synaptic plasticity in dystonia

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2010
Dystonia is a functionally disabling movement disorder characterized by abnormal movements and postures. Although substantial recent progress has been made in identifying genetic factors, the pathophysiology of the disease remains a mystery.

Calcium-Permeable AMPA Receptors Mediate the Induction of the Protein Kinase A-Dependent Component of Long-Term Potentiation in the Hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Two forms of NMDA receptor (NMDAR)-dependent long-term potentiation (LTP) at hippocampal CA1 synapses can be distinguished based on their sensitivity to inhibitors of protein kinase A (PKA).

Persistent memories of long-term potentiation and the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor

open access: yesBrain and Neuroscience Advances, 2019
In this article, we describe our involvement in the early days of research into long-term potentiation. We start with a description of the early experiments conducted in Oslo and London where long-term potentiation was first characterised. We discuss the
