Mossy cells give rise to the commissural and associational pathway of the dentate gyrus, and receive their major excitatory inputs from the mossy fibers of granule cells. Through these feed-back excitatory connections, mossy cells have been suggested to play important roles in both normal signal pro

The ability of the perforant path/dentate granule cell synapse of the hippocampal formation to establish and maintain enhanced levels of synaptic transmission in response to tetanization (longterm potentiation, LTP) was investigated in freely moving rats at 15, 30, and 90 days of age. Measures of 1)
Long-term potentiation (LTP) or long-term depression (LTD) can be produced in the dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus with high-or low-frequency stimulation trains, respectively. Although LTP can be elicited in a variety of preparations, we know of no reports of LTD unaccompanied by seizure activi
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
