ATP- and Adenosine-Mediated Signaling in the Central Nervous System: The Role of Extracellular ATP in Hippocampal Long-Term Potentiation

Application of 10 μM ATP for 10 min transiently depressed, then slowly augmented, synaptic transmission in CA1 neurons, leading to long-term potentiation (LTP) (ATP-induced LTP). This ATP-induced LTP was blocked by addition of an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate receptor antagonist, D,L-2-amino...
