Chronic psychosocial stress-induced impairment of hippocampal LTP: Possible role of BDNF

Chronic psychosocial stress-induced impairment of hippocampal LTP: Possible role of BDNF

Electrophysiological recording reveals that chronic nicotine treatment prevents stress-induced impairment of long-term potentiation (LTP) in the CA1 region of the hippocampus of anesthetized rats. We investigated the molecular mechanism of this action of nicotine in the CA1 region. Immunoblot analys...
