Integrated Regulation of Signal Coding and Plasticity by NMDA Receptors at a Central Synapse

The role of NMDA and non-NMDA glutamate receptors in long-term potentiation has been intensely investigated, yet recent evidence on the dynamics of synaptic depolarization suggests that the original view should be extended. NMDA receptor-mediated currents, apart from their Ca2+ permeability, show a...
