Figure 6. IGF1-R Signaling Is Required by STFP-Induced LTP of G-M Synapses

Discussion: "Odor exposure in a social context during STFP induces sustained Ca2+ entry in mitral cell dendrites and triggers both glutamate release and IGF1 exocytosis. IGF1 acts on IGF1-R and potentiates G-M synaptic strength by recruiting more GABA-R, which may be a synaptic substrate for the association of odor signals and social context."
