Metaplasticity: the plasticity of synaptic plasticity

WC Abraham, MF Bear - Trends in neurosciences, 1996 - cell.com
In thi paper, we review experimental evidence for a novel form of persistent synaptic
plasticity we call metaplasticity. Metaplasticity is induced by synaptic or cellular activity, but it …

Synaptic plasticity: LTP and LTD

MF Bear, RC Malenka - Current opinion in neurobiology, 1994 - Elsevier
Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a synaptic enhancement that follows brief, high-frequency
electrical stimulation in the hippocampus and neocortex. Recent evidence suggests that …

Bidirectional synaptic plasticity induced by a single burst during cholinergic theta oscillation in CA1 in vitro

PT Huerta, JE Lisman - Neuron, 1995 - cell.com
In standard protocols, the frequency of synaptic stimulation determines whether CA1
hippocampal synapses undergo long-term potentiation or depression. Here we show that …
