Postsynaptic protein synthesis is required for presynaptic enhancement in persistent forms of long-term potentiation.
Long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus is a fundamental process underlying learning and memory in the brain. At CA3-CA1 synapses, three discrete forms of LTP (LTP1, 2 and 3) have been differentiated on the basis of their persistence, maintenance mechanisms, Ca2+ signaling pathways, express...
