Long-term depression: a cell biological view.
Recent studies of the molecular mechanisms of long-term depression (LTD) suggest a crucial role for the signalling pathways of apoptosis (programmed cell death) in the weakening and elimination of synapses and dendritic spines. With this backdrop, we suggest that LTD can be considered as the electrophysiological aspect of a larger cell biological programme of synapse involution, which uses loca...
متن کاملLong-term potentiation and long-term depression: a clinical perspective
Long-term potentiation and long-term depression are enduring changes in synaptic strength, induced by specific patterns of synaptic activity, that have received much attention as cellular models of information storage in the central nervous system. Work in a number of brain regions, from the spinal cord to the cerebral cortex, and in many animal species, ranging from invertebrates to humans, ha...
متن کاملA long-term view of harm reduction.
The concept of harm reduction is controversial, as it brings to mind the failures, public misconceptions, and undermining of prevention associated with the low-tar cigarette campaign. Modern cigarettes are, however, unnecessarily carcinogenic and toxic, a situation that could be improved by sensible and serious regulation of the contents of tobacco smoke. The risks potentially associated with r...
متن کاملLong-term depression at parallel fiber to Golgi cell synapses.
Golgi cells (GoCs) are the primary inhibitory interneurons of the granular layer of the cerebellum. Their inhibition of granule cells is central to operate the relay of excitatory inputs to the cerebellar cortex. Parallel fibers (PFs) establish synapses to the GoCs in the molecular layer; these synapses contain AMPA, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), and mostly group II metabotropic glutamate recept...
متن کاملLong-term depression of a dopamine IPSC.
Two determinants of dopamine release from terminals in striatal and limbic structures are the pattern and rate of dopamine neuron firing in the ventral midbrain. This activity is regulated in part by somatodendritic release of dopamine and subsequent feedback inhibition through activation of D2 receptors on dopamine neuron cell bodies and dendrites. This study describes stimulus-dependent long-...
