Long-term potentiation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia LTP was discovered in the mammalian hippocampus by Terje Lømo in 1966 and has remained a popular subject of neuroscientific research since. PKA's activity is enhanced during LTP induction by elevated levels of cAMP as a result of calcium's activation of adenylyl cyclase-1. The late phase of LTP is dependent upon gene expression and protein synthesis, regulated largely by CREB-1. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Long-term_potentiation   (4193 words)

Long-Term Potentiation and Memory -- LYNCH 84 (1): 87 -- Physiological Reviews Long-term potentiation (LTP) in perforant path-granule cell synapses in urethane-anesthetized rats was inhibited by the Trk inhibitor tyrphostin AG879 (A), the MEK inhibitor PD98059 (B), and the PI 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin (C). synapses, induction of LTP in all subfields of the hippocampus receptors in LTP was in 1991 with the observation that the nonselective physrev.physiology.org /cgi/content/full/84/1/87   (10239 words)

Long-Term Potentiation: What's Learning Got To Do With It? The use of the term LTP to describe all forms of enhanced synaptic efficacy might lead a casual observer to conclude that a common mechanism is shared by all. This synaptic potentiation was observed in a pathway from the thalamus to the amygdala, one that is thought to be involved in fear conditioning (Rogan and LeDoux 1995). Accordingly, LTP is suggested to nonspecifically increase the effective salience of discrete external stimuli and thereby is capable of facilitating the induction of memories at distant synapses. www.bbsonline.org /documents/a/00/00/04/82/bbs00000482-00/bbs.shors.html   (19647 words)

Long-Term Potentiation The behavior of certain synapses in the "CA1" region of the hippocampus of the rat (or mouse) is consistent with their being essential for this form of long-term memory. LTP has also been demonstrated in neurons of the cerebellum. LTP involves structural changes as well as functional ones. users.rcn.com /jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/L/LTP.html   (960 words)

Long-term memory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Biologically, short-term memory is a temporary potentiation of neural connections that can become long-term memory through the process of rehearsal and meaningful association. The proposed mechanism by which short-term memories move into LTM storage is via long-term potentiation, which leads to a physical change in the structure of neurons. According to the theory of Tarnow, long term memories are stored in dream format (reminiscent of the Penfield and Rasmussen’s findings that electrical excitations of cortex give rise to experiences similar to dreams). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Long_term_memory   (774 words)

Long-Term Potentiation Long-term potentiation has been found to occur in the mammalian hippocampus. LTP is one of the first examples of mechanisms of neural implementation of a cognitive function. This was an extremely important finding because it suggested that LTP could be the cellular basis of neural implementation for learning and memory. penta.ufrgs.br /edu/telelab/3/long_ter.htm   (144 words)

Episodic Memory Hippocampus Long-term potentiation Recruitment SMRITI* is a computational model that demonstrates how a cortically expressed transient pattern of rhythmic activity representing an event or a situation can be rapidly transformed into a persistent and robust memory trace as a result of long-term potentiation and long-term depression within structures whose architecture and circuitry are consistent with those of the HS. Our ability to remember events in our daily life and acquire specific facts after reading a newspaper or watching a newscast underscores our ability to rapidly acquire new memories. But how the HS subserves this mnemonic function is not fully understood. www.icsi.berkeley.edu /~shastri/smriti   (219 words)

Long-term memory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Biologically, short-term memory is a temporary potentiation of neural connections that can become long-term memory through the process of rehearsal and meaningful association. As long-term memory is subject to fading in the natural forgetting process, several recalls/retrievals of memory may be needed for long-term memories to last for years, dependent also on the depth of processing. According to the theory of Tarnow, long term memories are stored in dream format (reminiscent of the Penfield and Rasmussen’s findings that electrical excitations of cortex give rise to experiences similar to dreams). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Long_term_memory   (445 words)

Mechanisms of Synaptic Plasticity While there are many forms of short term plasticity, such as paired pulse facilitation/depression, these pages are intended to detail some of the work of Centre PIs in the area of long-term plasticity, namely long-term potentiation and long-term depression. DHPG-induced LTD: This form of LTD was first identified here at the MRC Centre with the use of the Group I mGlu receptor agonists DHPG, and later shown to be dependent on the mGlu5 receptor by using CHPG. Paired-pulse induced LTD: This form of LTD is induced by a train of pairs of stimulation and has been shown to be independent of NMDA receptors but dependent on mGlu receptors. www.bris.ac.uk /Depts/Synaptic/research/projects/mechanisms/mechanisms.htm   (1251 words)

Long-Term Potentiation This is called long-term depression or LTD. It involves Glu binding to a different type of NMDA receptor. Slow, weak stimulation of CA1 neurons also brings about long-term changes in the synapses, in this case, a reduction in the sensitivity. Humans undergoing electroshock treatment (to alleviate their depression) are unable to remember events that occurred just prior to the treatment, but their memory of earlier events is unimpaired. users.rcn.com /jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/L/LTP.html   (960 words)

Long-term potentiation -- Facts, Info, and Encyclopedia article "The concept of long term potentiation of transmission at synapses." Prog Neurobiol.

When an axon of cell A is near enough to excite a cell B and repeatedly or persistently takes part in firing it, some growth process or metabolic change takes place in one or both cells such that A's efficiency, as one of the cells firing B, is increased. www.absoluteastronomy.com /encyclopedia/l/lo/long-term_potentiation.htm   (3310 words)

Single protein appears central to the formation of the long-term memories A comparatively small burst of electric current simulates a phenomenon thought to parallel short term memory, and is referred to as early long-term potentiation, or E-LTP. When a long term memory is made, researchers believe that neurons gain the capacity to transmit a much stronger electrical impulse than they otherwise would, and require much less neurotransmitter. Long term memory refers to the ability to remember things for more than a day--sometimes for many years. www.news-medical.net /?id=5607   (1287 words)

HHMI News: Researchers Find Enzyme Crucial to Preservation of Memories The scientists began their studies to clarify the enzyme’s role in late long-term potentiation (L-LTP), the process by which enduring memories are established through a mechanism of activating genes that trigger protein synthesis. According to the researchers, their experiments — which showed that defects in a key biochemical signaling pathway were responsible for the animals’ inability to improve their long-term memory in a series of maze tests — constitute a powerful approach to understanding molecules involved in learning and memory. “CaMKIV had been implicated in long-term memory pathways in the past, but previous studies had involved global knockout of the enzyme in the entire animal,” said Tonegawa. www.hhmi.org /news/tonegawa.html   (1003 words)

Increasing age reduces expression of long-term depression and dynamic range of transmission plasticity in CA1 field of the rat hippocampus. We found significant long-term depression in slices of all groups stimulated with protocol 1; however, the magnitude of long-term depression in slices from 24- and 36-week-old rats was significantly lower than that in slices from two- and 12-week old rats, although there was no such difference in the magnitude of long-term potentiation between slices. Long-term depression, depotentiation and long-term potentiation of field excitatory postsynaptic potentials in the CA1 field of the hippocampus were studied in slices from two-, 12-, 24- and 36-week-old rats. The decrease in the dynamic range in slices from 36-week-old rats was due to a diminished capacity to depotentiate the nearly saturated long-term potentiation and not due to a decreased long-term potentiation expression in these slices. www.arclab.org /medlineupdates/abstract_9483555.html   (362 words)
