Leptin unmasks LTPGABA. (a) In the presence of 10 nM leptin, LTPGABA was induced by the prolonged HFS (n = 8). (b) Summary scatter plots of PPF before and after the prolonged HFS in the presence of 10 nM leptin (n = 9). Leptin decreased PPF. (c) Leptin (10 nM) had no effect on eIPSCs (n = 9). The insets show averages of ten consecutive current traces before (Control) and 15–20 min after leptin application. (d) In the presence of 10 nM leptin and 100 μM L-NAME, the prolonged HFS had no effect on eIPSC amplitudes (n = 8). (e) In the presence of 10 nM leptin and 10 μM AG490, the prolonged HFS induced LTDGABA (n = 8). (f) In the presence of 10 nM leptin and 200 nM wortmannin, the prolonged HFS induced LTDGABA (n = 12). (g) In the presence of 10 nM leptin and 10 μM PD98059, the prolonged HFS induced LTDGABA (n = 10). (h) Summary scatter plots of eIPSCs obtained from the experiments shown in (a,dg). Paired t-test, *p < 0.04 compared to control response. (a,c–g) The insets show averages of ten consecutive current traces before (pre) and 25–30 min after HFS (post). (a,d–g) The prolonged HFS is indicated by an arrow. (a–g) Scale bar represents 50 pA and 50 ms.
