Blockade and Disruption of Neocortical Long-term Potentiation Following Electroconvulsive Shock in the Adult, Freely Moving Rat

Abstract

Although the neocortex has been considered to be highly resistant to the induction of long-term potentiation (LTP), we have recently shown that spaced and repeated stimulation of white matter afferents reliably induces neocortical LTP in the freely moving rat. The following study examined the effects of maximal electroconvulsive shock (MES) stimulation on the induction of LTP in the chronically prepared rat. MES stimulation was applied at …
