Learning-related synaptic plasticity: LTP and LTD
Abstract
The past several years have seen studies of synaptic plasticity in both invertebrate and vertebrate nervous systems come of age and lead to important new findings. In particular, current evidence points to a possible presynaptic site for long-term potentiation and the involvement of a retrograde messenger from the postsynaptic neuron. Recent advances in both cerebellar and cortical forms of long-term depression are also discussed.

Synaptic plasticity during aversive learning, such as fear conditioning in the hippocampus and amygdala, is thought to be controlled by LTP.
“Synaptic plasticity during aversive learning e.g. in fear conditioning in the hippocampus and the amygdala is thought to be controlled by LTP (Ehrlich et al., 2009;Siegelbaum and Kandel, 1991).”

“…mossy fiber LTP; cAMP; Ca21; neuroplasticity; hippocampus Long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus is a form of synaptic plasticity that may be an appropriate electrophysiological model for learning and memory (for review, see Siegelbaum and Kandel, 1991; Thompson, 1992; Malenka, 1994).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
