Morphology of layer III pyramidal neurons is altered following induction of LTP in sensorimotor cortex of the freely moving rat

Abstract

The organization of specific cortical connections can be altered by sensory and motor experience. These changes are believed to result from activity-dependent changes in synaptic connectivity, similar to those induced in the hippocampus by high-frequency stimulation in long-term potentiation (LTP) experiments. If similar mechanisms are involved, then neocortical LTP induction may induce some of the same morphological changes that are seen …
