Document Summary
Involves a persistent change in synaptic connections between neurons. Long-term increases in synaptic strength = long term potentiation. Long-term decreases in synaptic strength = long term depression. The role of nmda receptors in ltp was discovered in the late 1980s by. Genetically modified mice have helped us to understand the role of ltp in learning and memory. In ltp, following nmda receptor activation, ampa receptors are delivered to the synaptic membrane. How motor proteins transport cargo along the axon. Motor proteins transport glutamate receptors to the synapse during long-term potentiation. If less neurotransmitter more receptors at the synapse. The dura matter is linked with mostly associated with which of the following bodily fluids: arterial blood, mucus, venous blood, intracellular fluid. Synapse associated proteins like sap97 tether receptors to the membrane. Bring receptors into contact with second messengers and kinases. Many neurotransmitter systems and second messengers are affected in most diseases. Dysregulation of one could cause multiple neurotransmitter abnormalities.
