Learning-facilitated long-term depression and long-term potentiation at mossy fiber- CA3 synapses requires activation of ß-adrenergic receptors

Learning-facilitated plasticity refers to hippocampal synaptic plasticity that is facilitated by novel spatial learning events. Both long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) are facilitated by novel hippocampus-dependent learning. This has important ramifications for our understan...
