Abstract

The effects of Type I adrenal steroid receptors in prolonging synaptic plasticity in the dentate gyrus of freely behaving rats was investigated. Rats were implanted with chronic, bilateral stimulating and recording electrodes in the perforant pathway and dentate gyrus, respectively, and adrenalectomized (ADX). After a 2-3 day recovery period, baseline recordings of field potentials were made followed by administration of aldosterone or vehicle. One hour later, high frequency stimulation (HFS; chosen to produce comparable long-term potentiation (LTP) in the aldosterone-treated and control groups) was applied unilaterally and recording was continued for 1 h and again performed at 3, 24 and 48 h. LTP in ADX controls decayed significantly within 3 h, and returned to baseline levels at 24 h. In contrast, the aldosterone-treated animals showed enhanced LTP at 3, 24 and 48 h. These findings demonstrate that aldosterone both enhances and prolongs hippocampal plasticity.

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.
