LIM-Kinases in Synaptic Plasticity, Memory, and Brain Diseases
Learning and memory require structural and functional modifications of synaptic connections, and synaptic deficits are believed to underlie many brain disorders.

Synaptic tagging and capture in the living rat [PDF]
In isolated hippocampal slices, decaying long-term potentiation can be stabilized and converted to late long-term potentiation lasting many hours, by prior or subsequent strong high-frequency tetanization of an independent input to a common population of

Differential sensitivity of three forms of hippocampal synaptic potentiation to depotentiation
Theta-burst stimulation (TBS) induces short-term potentiation (STP) plus two types of transcriptionally-independent forms of long-term potentiation (LTP), termed LTP1 and LTP2.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) /p35 is involved in many developmental processes of the central nervous system. Cdk5/p35 is also implicated in synaptic plasticity, learning and memory.

Dependence receptor involvement in subtilisin-induced long-term depression and in long-term potentiation [PDF]
The serine protease subtilisin induces a form of long-term depression (LTD) which is accompanied by a reduced expression of the axo-dendritic guidance molecule Unco-ordinated-5C (Unc-5C).

Pain-motor integration in the primary motor cortex in Parkinson's disease [PDF]
In Parkinson's disease (PD), the influence of chronic pain on motor features has never been investigated. We have recently designed a technique that combines nociceptive system activation by laser stimuli and primary motor cortex (M1) activation through ...

The roles of STP and LTP in synaptic encoding [PDF]
Long-term potentiation (LTP), a cellular model of learning and memory, is generally regarded as a unitary phenomenon that alters the strength of synaptic transmission by increasing the postsynaptic response to the release of a quantum of neurotransmitter.

Mechanistic insights into cAMP-mediated presynaptic potentiation at hippocampal mossy fiber synapses [PDF]
Presynaptic plasticity is an activity-dependent change in the neurotransmitter release and plays a key role in dynamic modulation of synaptic strength.

Tonic and phasic nitric oxide signals in hippocampal long-term potentiation [PDF]
Nitric oxide ( NO) participates in long-term potentiation (LTP) and other forms of synaptic plasticity in many different brain areas but where it comes from and how it acts remain controversial.
