nervous system
• presynaptic fiber volleys are significantly larger in knockout mice; normalized mean population excitatory postsynaptic potentials are smaller in knockouts than in controls
|
• in hippocampal slices from knockout mice, enhanced LTP is observed; at 60 minutes, LTP is larger than in controls
|
• in slices from knockout mice, larger short-term post-tetanic potientiation is seen
|
• low frequency stimulation elicits a short-lasting depression followed by a slow but significant potentiation in slices from knockouts, in contrast to wild-type slices where long term depression is induced
• no frequency of stimulation could induce LTD in knockout mice
