Long-term potentiation in isolated dendritic spines. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:In brain, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor (NMDAR) activation can induce long-lasting changes in synaptic alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate (AMPA) receptor (AMPAR) levels.

Modeling Maintenance of Long-Term Potentiation in Clustered Synapses: Long-Term Memory without Bistability [PDF]
Memories are stored, at least partly, as patterns of strong synapses. Given molecular turnover, how can synapses maintain strong for the years that memories can persist?

Erythropoietin enhances hippocampal long-term potentiation and memory [PDF]
Background Erythropoietin (EPO) improves cognition of human subjects in the clinical setting by as yet unknown mechanisms. We developed a mouse model of robust cognitive improvement by EPO to obtain the first clues of how EPO influences cognition, and ...

The Pathway-Selective Dependence of Nitric Oxide for Long-Term Potentiation in the Anterior Cingulate Cortex of Adult Mice [PDF]
Nitric oxide (NO) is a key diffusible messenger in the mammalian brain. It has been proposed that NO may diffuse in retrograde into presynaptic terminals, contributing to the induction of hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP).

Long-term potentiation in an innexin-based electrical synapse [PDF]
Electrical synapses are formed by two unrelated gap junction protein families, the primordial innexins (invertebrates) or the connexins (vertebrates). Although molecularly different, innexin- and connexin-based electrical synapses are strikingly similar ...

Involvement of CX3CL1/CX3CR1 signaling in spinal long term potentiation. [PDF]
The long-term potentiation (LTP) of spinal C-fiber-evoked field potentials is considered as a fundamental mechanism of central sensitization in the spinal cord.

Rapid Recovery From Cortical Blindness Caused by an Old Cerebral Infarction
When the primary visual cortex (V1) is damaged, cortical blindness results. However, visual information obtained from the superior colliculus (SC) or direct thalamic afferents to higher visual cortices produces unconscious visual functions called ...

Nutritional deficit and Long Term Potentiation alterations
In the present work we examined the ability of prenatally malnourished offspring to produce and maintain long-term potentiation (LTP) of the perforant path/dentate granule cell synapse in freely moving rats at 15,30, and 90 days of age.

Long-Term Potentiation: One Kind or Many? [PDF]
Do neurobiologists aim to discover natural kinds? I address this question in this chapter via a critical analysis of classification practices operative across the 43-year history of research on long-term potentiation (LTP).
