Intrinsic plasticity complements long-term potentiation in parallel fiber input gain control in cerebellar Purkinje cells [PDF]
Synaptic gain control and information storage in neural networks are mediated by alterations in synaptic transmission, such as in long-term potentiation (LTP).

Interactions between short-term and long-term plasticity: shooting for a moving target [PDF]
Far from being static transmission units, synapses are highly dynamical elements that change over multiple time scales depending on the history of the neural activity of both the pre- and postsynaptic neuron.

Long-term potentiation in spinal nociceptive pathways as a novel target for pain therapy
Long-term potentiation (LTP) in nociceptive spinal pathways shares several features with hyperalgesia and has been proposed to be a cellular mechanism of pain amplification in acute and chronic pain states.

Molecular constraints on synaptic tagging and maintenance of long-term potentiation: a predictive model. [PDF]
Protein synthesis-dependent, late long-term potentiation (LTP) and depression (LTD) at glutamatergic hippocampal synapses are well characterized examples of long-term synaptic plasticity.

Summary: The mRNA cap-binding protein, eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E), is crucial for translation and regulated by Ser209 phosphorylation. However, the biochemical and physiological role of eIF4E phosphorylation in translational control of long ...

State based model of long-term potentiation and synaptic tagging and capture [PDF]
Recent data indicate that plasticity protocols have not only synapse-specific but also more widespread effects. In particular, in synaptic tagging and capture (STC), tagged synapses can capture plasticity-related proteins, synthesized in response to ...

LTP induction boosts glutamate spillover by driving withdrawal of astroglia [PDF]
SUMMARYExtrasynaptic actions of glutamate are limited by high-affinity transporters on perisynaptic astroglial processes (PAPs), which helps to maintain point-to-point transmission in excitatory circuits. Memory formation in the brain is associated with synaptic remodelling, but how this remodelling affects PAPs and therefore extrasynaptic glutamate ...

What does LTP tell us about the roles of CaMKII and PKMζ in memory?
In “Criteria for identifying the molecular basis of the engram (CaMKII, PKMζ),” Lisman proposes that elucidating the mechanism of LTP maintenance is key to understanding memory storage.

Intracellular mechanisms underlying the nicotinic enhancement of LTP in the rat dentate gyrus [PDF]
We have previously shown that activation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) enhanced long-term potentiation (LTP) in the rat dentate gyrus in vitro via activation of α7 nAChR. In the present studies, mechanisms underlying the acute and chronic
