Unveiling novel forms of hippocampal synaptic plasticity with microelectrode arrays.
Résumé
In this report, we elucidate by use of microelectrode arrays novel forms of long-term depression and potentiation in the hippocampus which are triggered by low frequency afferent stimulation and which rely on the activation of metabotropic glutamate receptor of the fifth subtype (mGlu5 receptor).
