Figure 6. Input Specificity of NMDAR LTP.
(A) Time graphs of a representative experiment where two independent pathways were alternately stimulated via two extracellular electrodes. During the induction, only one pathway was stimulated in conjunction with postsynaptic bursting (top, “paired”), while the other pathway was left unstimulated (bottom, “unpaired”). Sample traces show average NMDAR EPSCs taken at the times indicated for the paired (left) and unpaired (right) pathways.
(B) Summary time graph of NMDAR LTP in paired versus unpaired pathways in 4 neurons. Error bars indicate SEM.
