Hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) is widely believed to be a cellular substrate for learning and memory. A likely physiological stimulus for initiating LTP is repetitive neuronal activity, which also results in K + accumulation extracellularly . Therefore, the involvement of elevated extracel
