Heterosynaptic facilitation of LTP by delivery of sTBS to an independent input. (A) Input-specific LTP induced by a weak TBS (wTBS; 3 bursts of 15 stimuli) from 10 experiments (filled circles); non-tetanized independent input (open circles). (B) Similar LTP in the weak input when preceded by a cTBS delivered to an independent input, 30 min previously (n = 7). (C) Facilitation of LTP induced by the wTBS when preceded by a sTBS delivered to an independent input, 30 min previously (n = 16). (D,E) Superimposition of the LTP induced by the wTBS (data from A,B and A,C) to highlight the lack of effect of prior cTBS (D) in contrast to the heterosynaptic facilitation of LTP by prior sTBS (E). (F) Additional quantification of the data in (A–C). p < 0.05; ∗∗p < 0.01; comparisons vs. sTBS.
