AIM To investigate whether long-term potentiation (LTP) induced by nicotine and tetanic stimulation in the hippocampal CA1 region shares different mechanisms. METHODS Extracellular population spikes of the pyramidal cell layer in the hippocampal CA1 region were recorded in vitro. RESULTS LTP induced by the tetanic stimulation could be facilitated by nicotine 10 micromol/L, meanwhile, the te...
Gene expression regulated by the cAMP response element (CRE) has been implicated in synaptic plasticity and long-term memory. It has been proposed that CRE-mediated gene expression is stimulated by signals that induce long-term potentiation (LTP). To test this hypothesis, we made mice transgenic for a CRE-regulated reporter construct. We focused on long-lasting long-term potentiation (L-LTP), b...
Spike timing-dependent long-term potentiation in ventral tegmental area dopamine cells requires PKC.
Long-term potentiation (LTP) of excitatory synapses on ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopamine (DA) cells is thought to play an important role in mediating some of the behavioral effects of drugs of abuse yet little is known about its underlying mechanisms. We find that spike timing-dependent LTP (STD LTP) in VTA DA cells is absent in slices prepared from mice previously administered cocaine, sug...
The lateral amygdala (LA) is thought to be critical for the specific acquisition of conditioned fear, and the emotionally charged memories related to fear are thought to require a form of synaptic plasticity related to long-term potentiation (LTP). Is LTP in the lateral amygdala enduring, and, if so, does it require gene expression and the synthesis of new protein? Using brain slices, we have e...
Hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) is a form of synaptic plasticity used as a cellular model of memory. Beta amyloid (Aβ) is involved in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disorder leading to cognitive deficits. Nicotine, is also claimed to act as a cognitive enhancer. Aβ is known to bind with high affinity to the α7-nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR). Here we have invest...
Central arterial compliance plays an important role in the functional abilities of the vasculature. Two active tripeptides, valine-proline-proline and isoleucine-proline-proline, were isolated from sour milk and were referred to as lactotripeptides (LTP). Because LTP appears to act as an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, it is plausible to hypothesize that LTP improves arterial complianc...
Background Lipid transfer proteins (LTP) are considered true food allergens because sensitization takes place in the gastrointestinal tract, in contrast with other food allergens like profilins or Bet v 1-homologues, where sensitization is a consequence of an allergic sensitization to inhaled allergens. Although allergy to peach LTP (pru p 3) is frequently associated to sensitization to plane t...
The requirement of postsynaptic calcium influx via L-type channels for the induction of long-term potentiation (LTP) of mossy fiber input to CA3 pyramidal neurons was tested for two different patterns of stimulation. Two types of LTP-inducing stimuli were used based on the suggestion that one of them, brief high-frequency stimulation (B-HFS), induces LTP postsynaptically, whereas the other patt...
We have shown that some neural activity is required for the maintenance of long-term potentiation (LTP) at visual cortical inhibitory synapses. We tested whether this was also the case in N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-independent LTP of excitatory connections in layer 2/3 cells of developing rat visual cortex. This LTP occurred after 2-Hz stimulation was applied for 15 min and always per...
Protocols that induce long-term potentiation (LTP) typically involve afferent stimulation. We tested the hypothesis that LTP induction does not require presynaptic activity. The significance of this hypothesis is underscored by results suggesting that LTP expression may involve activity-dependent presynaptic changes. An induction protocol using glutamate iontophoresis was developed that reliabl...
