The how and why for multiple forms of hippocampal LTP

|
By Christine Gall, Aliza A. Le, Gary Lynch
| Frontiers
Abstract Activity-induced Long-Term Potentiation (LTP)—characterized as it is by rapid induction, synapse specificity, and remarkable persistence—has long been considered a primary substrate for memory encoding. There has however been considerable debate about the cellular mechanisms responsible for producing the potentiated state. It seems that much of the confusion can be traced to an implicit assumption that there is a single form of stable potentiation.

| Nature Verified
Abstract Major depressive disorder is known to disturb the hippocampus, but how this impacts signal processing performed by the structure remains poorly understood. Here, we report that single housing (7-10 days) promotes a depression-like phenotype in young adult mice that is associated with a robust, yet surprisingly discreet defect in information flow across the primary hippocampal circuit.

Lasting effects of early-life oxytocin treatment on LTP and episodic memory in a mouse model of Fragile X syndrome

|
By Jasmine Chavez, Aliza A. Le, Julie C. Lauterborn, Brittney Cox, Yousheng Jia, Gary Lynch, Christine Gall
| Nature Verified
Abstract Deficits in episodic memory are a debilitating feature of Fragile X syndrome (FXS) and other congenital autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). There is evidence that oxytocin (OXT) treatments can improve sociability in persons with ASD and related animal models, encouraging the idea that benefits might extend to cognitive function. We tested this possibility in male FXS model, Fmr1-knockout (KO) mice.
