Annotation description: | Fig. 4 shows impaired LTP in FYN KO mice Literal: "(LTP was impaired in the CAl neurons of hippocampal slices from fyn- mice in both the field EPSP (Fig. 4A) and in the popu- lation spik"..."Whereas weak stimulation strengths during a tetanus produced robust LTP in slices from wild-type mice (149.6 + 18.2 percent), this protocol induced little or no LTP in slices from fyn- mice (108 +/- 7.6 percent) (Fig. 4B). However, when strong intensity stimulation was used during the tetanus, a reduced form of LTP (approxi- mately 50 percent of that observed in slices from wild-type animals) was evident (133 ? 9.3 percent in fyn-; 168.5 +/- 11.6 percent in wild-type) (Fig. 4C)" 9/11/2017 Pim - The activity of the NMDAR is not affected by Fyn: "These experiments suggest that the NMDA receptor in fyn- mice functions normally and that the synaptic depolarization of the postsynaptic cells produced by the input seems adequate to activate the NMDA receptor. We find the results most consistent with a modulatory defect in the sequence of steps subsequent to the activation of the NMDA receptor." |
