## Abstract We studied the ontogeny of inhibitory and excitatory processes in the rat dentate gyrus by examining pairedβpulse plasticity in the hippocampal slice preparation. The mature dentate gyrus produces characteristic pairedβpulse responses across a wide range of interpulse intervals (IPI). P
## Abstract Thyroid hormone activates extracellular signalβregulated kinases (ERK1 and ERK2), which are important in late longβterm potentiation (LβLTP). The aim of this study was to determine the possible mechanism underlying the impairment of LβLTP as a result of hypothyroidism. We investigated t
