## Abstract Among the different steroids found in the brain, pregnenolone sulfate (3β‐hydroxy‐5‐pregnen‐20‐one‐3‐sulfate; PREGS) is known to enhance hippocampal‐associated memory. The present study employs rat hippocampal slices to investigate the ability of PREGS to modulate long‐term potentiation
Long-term potentiation (LTP) of field excitatory postsynaptic potentials (fEPSPs) at the apical or basal dendrites of CA1 pyramidal cells was induced by stimulation with a 1-s train of 200-Hz pulses in awake rats, with or without the presence of various doses of an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) recept
