Long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) remain widely accepted
vertebrate models for the cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie synaptic changes …

The aims of this paper are to provide a comprehensive and up to date review of the mechanisms
of induction and expression of long-term depression (LTD) of synaptic transmission. …

It is widely believed that long-term depression (LTD) and its counterpart, long-term potentiation
(LTP), involve mechanisms that are crucial for learning and memory. However, LTD is …

UNDERSTANDING the mechanisms of long-term potentiation (LTP) should provide insights
into the molecular basis of learning and memory in vertebrates. lonotropic glutamate …

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (mGluRl) is a member of a large family of G-protein-coupled
glutamate receptors, the physiological functions of which are largely unknown. Mice …

NEUROTRANSMISSION at most excitatory synapses in the brain operates through two types
of glutamate receptor termed α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate (AMP A) …

The role of NMDA receptors in the induction of long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term
depression (LTD) is well established but which particular NR2 subunits are involved in these …

We establish the importance of cholinergic neurotransmission to both recognition memory
and plasticity within the perirhinal cortex of the temporal lobe. The muscarinic receptor …

In this study, we have investigated the developmental range over which different stimulus
protocols induce long‐term depression (LTD). Low‐frequency stimulation (LFS; 900 stimuli, 1 …

The modifications occurring in the brain during learning and memory are still poorly understood
but may involve long-lasting changes in synaptic transmission (synaptic plasticity). In …
