Roles of CP-AMPAR in NMDAR-dependent LTD. (a) Left; Dose response relationship of D-AP5 and NASPM on LFS-induced LTD (IC50 and Hill’s coefficient; D-AP5, 0.35 µM and 0.78 ± 0.1, n = 3; NASPM, 0.1 µM and 0.92 ± 0.1, n = 3). Right; Treatment with both D­AP5 (0.35 μM) and NASPM (0.1 μM) completely inhibited LTD induction in the LHb (97.4 ± 3.2%, n = 6). (b) NASPM failed to inhibit LFS-induced LTD in aCSF containing low Mg2+ (0.5 mM) and glycine (10 μM) (LFS-LTD, 77.9 ± 3.9%, n = 5). (c) Chemically NMDA-induced LTD was induced in the LHb after 15 min of treatment with NMDA (30 μM)(76.9 ± 2.2%, n = 6) and was completely inhibited by NASPM (20 μM)(96.3 ± 2.5%, n = 6) and by ifenprodil (10 μM)(98.6 ± 2.6%, n = 4). (d) NASPM did not block chemically NMDA-induced LTD (65.5 ± 5.6%, n = 5).
