✦ Synopsis


Long-Term Potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus has been considered to be a phenomenon closely related to learning and memory in the brain. In this paper, an integrated model of LTP is constructed based on hypotheses about both the mechanism of LTP induction and that of LTP maintenance, that is, the NMDA-receptor channel, protein phosphorylation and protein turnover. The validity of the model is discussed based on the results of computer simulations.

Long-Term Potentiation (LTP) has three properties: (1) input specificity, (2) cooperativity and (3) associativity. In a previous paper, we proposed an integrated model of the mechanisms of the induction and maintenance of LTP with input specificity. In this paper, a model of the mechanism of coopera

In the CA1 area of the hippocampus, the magnitude of long-term potentiation (LTP) depends not only on the frequency of applied stimuli, but also on their number. With a slice preparation using extracellular recording in the hippocampus CA1 of a guinea pig, we investigate the magnitude of LTP induced

We previously found a reduction in the ability of a single 100 Hz Ο« 1 sec tetanus to induce long-term potentiation (LTP) in the CAl region of hippocampal slices prepared from adult animals. To determine whether this reduction in LTP generation results from changes in neuromodulator function, we exam
