The induction of long-term potentiation (LTP) by high-frequency stimulation is considered an acceptable model for the study of learning and memory. In area CA1 calcium influx through N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs; nmdaLTP) and/or
In hippocampal CA1 area, there are at least two forms of long-term potentiation (LTP): one is N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-dependent LTP (NMDA LTP), which is induced with a 25 Hz tetanus and blocked by 50 microM
