Rescue of Cyclic AMP mediated long term potentiation impairment in the hippocampus of Mecp2 knockout (Mecp2-/y) mice by rolipram
Rett syndrome (RTT) patients experience learning difficulties and memory loss. Analogous deficits of hippocampal plasticity are reported in mouse models of RTT. To elucidate the underlying pathophysiology, we studied long term potentiation (LTP) at the CA3 to CA1 synapses in the hippocampus in acute...
