Interleukin‐1β abrogates long‐term depression of hippocampal CA1 synaptic transmission [PDF]
AbstractAlthough interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) is well known to modulate synaptic transmission and plasticity of the hippocampus, no study has yet evaluated how this cytokine affects long‐term depression (LTD), one of the major forms of hippocampal synaptic plasticity.

Long-Term Depression of Excitatory Synaptic Transmission in the Rat Amygdala [PDF]
In view of the fact that both kindling and fear-potentiated startle are expressed by long-term enhancement of synaptic transmission in the amygdala, synaptic plasticity in this area of the brain is of particular importance. Here, we show for the first time that low-frequency stimulation of the lateral nucleus at 1 Hz for 15 min elicited a long-term ...

Long-term synaptic depression in the striatum: physiological and pharmacological characterization [PDF]
The effect of tetanic activation of corticostriatal glutamatergic fibers was studied in striatal slices by utilizing extracellular and intracellular recording techniques. Tetanic stimulation produced a long- term synaptic depression (LTD) (> 2 h) of both extracellularly recorded field potentials and intracellularly recorded EPSPs.

We propose several modifications to an existing computational model of stochastic vesicle release in inner hair cell ribbon synapses, with the aim of producing simulated auditory nerve fibre spiking data that more closely matches empirical data ...

Relief of Synaptic Depression Produces Long-Term Enhancement in Thalamocortical Networks [PDF]
Thalamocortical synapses may be able to undergo activity-dependent long-term changes in efficacy, such as long-term potentiation. Indeed, studies conducted in vivo have found that theta-burst stimulation (TBS) of the thalamus induces a long-term enhancement (LTE) of field potential responses evoked in the neocortex of adult rodents.

In the cerebellar molecular layer parallel fibre terminals release glutamate from both the active zone and from extrasynaptic “ectopic” sites. Ectopic release mediates transmission to the Bergmann glia that ensheathe the synapse, activating Ca2 ...

Endogenous cannabinoids mediate long-term synaptic depression in the nucleus accumbens [PDF]
Do endocannabinoids (eCBs) participate in long-term synaptic plasticity in the brain? Using pharmacological approaches and genetically altered mice, we show that stimulation of prelimbic cortex afferents at naturally occurring frequencies causes a long-term depression of nucleus accumbens glutamatergic synapses mediated by eCB release and ...

Bio-inspired artificial synapse for neuromorphic computing based on NiO nanoparticle thin film
The unprecedented need for data processing in the modern technological era has created opportunities in neuromorphic devices and computation. This is primarily due to the extensive parallel processing done in our human brain.

Long-term synaptic depression in the mammalian brain
A generally accepted hypothesis in neurobiology has been that at the cellular level, memories are stored, at least in part, as long-term alterations in the strength of synaptic tranmission. In recent years, considerable attention has been paid to persistent, use-dependent mechanisms that increase synaptic strength, which are collectively referred to as

Long-Term Depression of Intrinsic Excitability Accompanied by Synaptic Depression in Cerebellar Purkinje Cells [PDF]
Long-term depression (LTD) at the parallel fiber (PF)-to-cerebellar Purkinje cell (PC) synapse is implicated in the output of PCs, the sole output of the cerebellar cortex. In addition to synaptic plasticity, intrinsic excitability is also one of the components that determines PC output. Although long-term potentiation of intrinsic excitability (LTP-IE)
