The neurotoxic effects of chronic ethanol consumption were investigated in the rat hippocampus by electrophysiological analyses of synaptic function of entorhinal afferents to stratum moleculare of the dentate gyrus. Rats were maintained on ethanol- or sucrose-containing liquid diets for a period of

Synaptic contacts on the granule cell somata as well as on their axon initial segments in the dentate gyrus of one juvenile 5-week-old rat and one adult 12-week-old rat were analyzed in an electron microscopic serial-sectioning study. In the dentate gyrus of the juvenile rat, somata of 17 granule ce
Long-term potentiation (LTP) in synapses of the medial perforant pathway of the rat dentate gyrus has been studied using the whole-cell voltage clamp technique and a standard hippocampal slice preparation. The rate of LTP induction by 2-4 brief trains of stimuli at 100 Hz, paired with postsynaptic d
## Abstract Whole‐cell voltage clamp recordings in 400 μm thick hippocampal slices revealed discrete excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic currents which persisted at synapses on granule cells following abolition of action potentials with 1 μM tetrodotoxin (TTX). The conductances associated with e
