The roles of the muscarinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptors (mAChRs) in long-term potentiation (LTP) at many areas of the central nervous system including the hippocampus, have been extensively studied. However, not much is known about the modulation of LTP through individual subtypes of mAChR (M(1)-M
Long-term potentiation (LTP) in perforant path-granule cell synapses has been shown to be accompanied by an increase in glutamate release. The objective of this study was to examine the possibility that nerve growth factor (NGF), by activating tyrosine kinase, modulates glutamate release and, theref
