Disinhibition-Mediated LTP in the Hippocampus is Synapse Specific

Disinhibition-Mediated LTP in the Hippocampus is Synapse Specific

Paired pre- and postsynaptic activity in area CA1 of the hippocampus induces long-term inhibitory synaptic plasticity at GABAergic synapses. This pairing-induced GABAergic plasticity weakens synaptic inhibition due to a depolarization of the reversal potential for GABAA receptor-mediated currents (...
