We investigated the induction mechanisms of associative LTD in CA1 pyramidal neurons of the hippocampus using whole-cell patch-clamp recordings and Ca2+ imaging in acute brain slices. Asynchronous pairing of postsynaptic action potentials with EPSPs evoked with a delay of 20 msec induced a robust, long-lasting depression of the EPSP amplitude to 43%. Unlike LTD induced by low-frequency stimulation, associative LTD was resistant to the application of D-AP-5, indicating that it is independent of NMDA receptors. In contrast, associative LTD was inhibited by (S)-α-methyl-4-carboxyphenyl-glycine, indicating the involvement of metabotropic glutamate receptors. Furthermore, associative LTD is dependent on the activation of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels by postsynaptic action potentials. Both nifedipine, an L-type Ca2+ channel antagonist, and ω-conotoxin GVIA, a selective N-type channel blocker, abolished the induction of associative LTD. 8-hydroxy-2-dipropylaminotetralin (OH-DPAT), a 5-HT(1A) receptor agonist, inhibited postsynaptic Ca2+ influx through N-type Ca2+ channels, without affecting presynaptic transmitter release. OH-DPAT also inhibited the induction of associative LTD, suggesting that the involvement of N-type channels makes synaptic plasticity accessible to modulation by neurotransmitters. Thus, the modulation of N-type Ca2+ channels provides a gain control for synaptic depression in hippocampal pyramidal neurons."}],"date_created":"2018-12-11T12:03:36Z","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6773198/"}],"citation":{"chicago":"Normann, Claus, Diana Peckys, Christian Schulze, Jörg Walden, Peter M Jonas, and Joseph Bischofberger. “Associative Long-Term Depression in the Hippocampus Is Dependent on Postsynaptic N-Type Ca(2+) Channels.” <i>Journal of Neuroscience</i>.
