Figure 3. Characterization of SDDP.

Figure 3

(A) Occurrences of sdLTD and sdLTP. Post-pre sequences (for −110<Δt<0 ms) induced sdLTD and sdLTP with success rates of 42% and 37%, respectively, and pre-post sequences (for 0<Δt<+110 ms) induced sdLTD (67%) and sdLTP (22%). (B) Magnitudes of long-term synaptic efficacy changes induced by post-pre and pre-post SDDP sequences: −37.4±5.7% and +32.1±8.9% for post-pre sdLTD and sdLTP, and −36.4±4.7% and +37.4±12.3% for pre-post sdLTD and sdLTP. (C) No correlation was found when the magnitudes of long-term plasticity induced by post-pre sequences were plotted against the amplitude of post-synaptic subthreshold depolarizations evoked during SDDP protocol (r = 0.147, p>0.05). (D) Rheobase and long-term synaptic plasticity induced by post-pre sequences in MSNs were significantly correlated (r = 0.417, p<0.05).
