Figure 6

Long-term potentiation (LTP) in contralateral hippocampal slices exposed to Aβ oligomers in the presence or absence of insulin. Schaffer collateral field recordings were performed to determine oligomer-induced LTP impairment in slices from sham and TBI animals. Graphs of fEPSP’s slopes as a percentage of the baseline with representative traces for each condition at (a) 1-month post-injury and (c) 3 months post-injury. Graphs showing the average of the fEPSP slope for the final 10 minutes (time points 50–60 minutes post high frequency stimulation) as an indication of LTP for each condition at (b) 1-month post-injury and (d) 3 months post-injury. 1 MPI n = 4 animals and 3–6 slices per condition; 3 MPI n = 3–5 animals and 3–7 slices per condition. One-way ANOVA with Bonferroni’s post hoc analysis was used to determine statistical significance. Error bars represent standard error. *p < 0.05.
