Analogous to learning and memory storage, long-term potentiation (LTP) is divided into
induction and maintenance phases. Testing the hypothesis that the mechanism of LTP …

Long-term potentiation (LTP), a persistent synaptic enhancement thought to be a substrate
for memory 1 , can be divided into two phases: induction, triggering potentiation, and …

Although the maintenance mechanism of late long-term potentiation (LTP) is critical for the
storage of long-term memory, the expression mechanism of synaptic enhancement during late…

Protein kinase Mζ (PKMζ) is a newly described form of PKC that is necessary and sufficient
for the maintenance of hippocampal long term potentiation (LTP) and the persistence of …

How long-term memories are stored is a fundamental question in neuroscience. The first
molecular mechanism for long-term memory storage in the brain was recently identified as the …

Protein kinase Mζ (PKMζ), an autonomously active atypical PKC isoform, is both necessary
and sufficient for enhanced synaptic transmission during long-term potentiation (LTP) …

Ramón y Cajal proposed 100 years ago that memory formation requires the growth of nerve
cell processes. One-half century later, Hebb suggested that growth of presynaptic axons …

Background Stress is a prevailing risk factor for mood-related illnesses, wherein women
represent the majority of those affected by major depression. Despite the growing literature …

This paper focuses on the temporal dimension of memory formation and storage. Is the
usual two-fold separation between short-term memory (STM) and long-term memory (LTM) …

Long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) are persistent modifications of
synaptic strength that have been implicated in learning, memory, and neuronal development…
