Long-Term Synaptic Depression - Physiology
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Long-Term Synaptic Depression'A persistent activity-dependent decrease in synaptic efficacy between NEURONS. It typically occurs following repeated low-frequency afferent stimulation, but it can be induced by other methods. Long-term depression appears to play a role in MEMORY. Common names: Long-Term Synaptic Depression; Long Term Synaptic Depression; Synaptic Depression, Long-Term; Long-Term Depression, Physiological; Depression, Physiological Long-Term; Depressions, Physiological Long-Term; Long Term Depression, Physiological; Long-Term Depressions, Physiological |

LTD induction suppresses LTP-induced hippocampal adult neurogenesis.
21 Sep 2009 
Neurogenesis persists in certain adult brain regions including the dentate gyrus. Recent studies have shown that long-term potentiation (LTP) induction in the afferent pathway enhances adult neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus. Here, we investigated ... Read more...
Toward a microscopic model of bidirectional synaptic plasticity.
28 Jul 2009 We show that a 2-step phospho/dephosphorylation cycle for the alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole proprionic acid receptor (AMPAR), as used in in vivo learning experiments to assess long-term potentiation (LTP) induction and establishment, ... Read more...
27 Jul 2009 The perirhinal cortex of the temporal lobe is essential for the familiarity discrimination component of recognition memory. In view of the importance of changes in calcium ion concentration for synaptic plasticity, the present study examined the ... Read more...
