Blocking mGluR5 with MTEP or selectively knocking out Efr3a in the CA3 area ameliorates oligomeric Aβ-induced impairment of a presynaptically-expressed LTP at the SC-CA1 synapse. a Representative traces showing averaged fEPSPs recorded in CA1 area 10 min before and 50 min after high-frequency SC stimulation (superimposed) in WT slices treated with vehicle (WT + Veh), oligomeric Aβ (WT + Aβ), MTEP (WT + MTEP), or both MTEP and oligomeric Aβ (WT + MTEP + Aβ), or in oligomeric Aβ-treated hippocampal slices from mice selectively knocking out Efr3a in the CA1 (CA1-Efr3a cKO + Aβ) or CA3 (CA3-Efr3a cKO + Aβ) area. b The time course of the normalized amplitude of fEPSPs before and after an LTP induction protocol in conditions shown in a. c Bar graph representing mean LTP magnitude 50 min after LTP induction shown in b. One-way ANOVA with post hoc Dunnett’s test; F(5,48) = 5.171; *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; N = 7–11 per group. d Representative traces of PPF of fEPSPs recorded in the CA1 area 10 min before and 50 min after high-frequency SC stimulation in the same conditions as in a. e The time course of the normalized PPF ratio before and after an LTP induction in the same conditions as in d. f Bar graph showing the relative PPF ratio before and after an LTP protocol. One-way ANOVA with post hoc Dunnett’s test; F(5,25) = 6.361; **P < 0.01; N = 4–6 per groups. Data are mean ± SEM. Source data are provided as a Source Data file
