The original proposal that substance P is involved in the regulation of nociceptive information at the first sensory synapse in the spinal cord has been substantiated by a wide range of evidence, but definitive support has been lacking, due primarily to ...

Electrogenesis of the slow inhibitory postsynaptic potential in bullfrog sympathetic ganglia.
The ionic mechanisms of the slow surface positive (P)-potential and the slow inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP), an intracellularly recorded P-potential in sympathetic ganglia, were analysed by means of sucrose-gap, intracellular microelectrode ...

GABAergic synaptic transmission regulates calcium influx during spike-timing dependent plasticity
Coincident pre- and postsynaptic activity of hippocampal neurons alters the strength of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABAA)-mediated inhibition through a Ca2+-dependent regulation of cation-chloride cotransporters.

Differential Effects of D-Cycloserine and ACBC at NMDA Receptors in the Rat Entorhinal Cortex Are Related to Efficacy at the Co-Agonist Binding Site. [PDF]
Partial agonists at the NMDA receptor co-agonist binding site may have potential therapeutic efficacy in a number of cognitive and neurological conditions. The entorhinal cortex is a key brain area in spatial memory and cognitive processing.

Event-based update of synapses in voltage-based learning rules [PDF]
Due to the point-like nature of neuronal spiking, efficient neural network simulators often employ event-based simulation schemes for synapses. Yet many types of synaptic plasticity rely on the membrane potential of the postsynaptic cell as a third factor in addition to pre- and postsynaptic spike times.

Human synapses show a wide temporal window for spike-timing-dependent plasticity
Throughout our lifetime, activity-dependent changes in neuronal connection strength enable the brain to refine neural circuits and learn based on experience.

Neuromodulation of Chemical Synaptic Transmission Driven by THz Photons
Postsynaptic currents of chemical synapse are modulated by multitudinous neurotransmitters, such as acetylcholine, dopamine, glutamate, and γ-aminobutyric acid, many of which have been used in the treatment of neurological diseases.

Paradoxical Results of Long-Term Potentiation explained by Voltage-based Plasticity Rule [PDF]
Experiments have shown that the same stimulation pattern that causes Long-Term Potentiation in proximal synapses, will induce Long-Term Depression in distal ones. In order to understand these, and other, surprising observations we use a phenomenological model of Hebbian plasticity at the location of the synapse.
