Diminished KCC2 confounds synapse-specificity of LTP during senescence
Synapse-specificity of LTP ensures that no interference arises from inputs irrelevant to the memory to be encoded. In hippocampi of aged (21-28 months-old) mice LTP was relayed to unstimulated synapses blemishing its synapse-specificity. Diminished levels of the K(+)/Cl(–) cotransporter KCC2 and a d...

description | Synapse-specificity of LTP ensures that no interference arises from inputs irrelevant to the memory to be encoded. In hippocampi of aged (21-28 months-old) mice LTP was relayed to unstimulated synapses blemishing its synapse-specificity. Diminished levels of the K(+)/Cl(–) cotransporter KCC2 and a depolarizing GABA(A) receptor-mediated synaptic component following LTP were the most likely causes for spreading the potentiation, unveiling novel mechanisms hindering information storage in the aged brain, and identifying KCC2 as a potential target for intervention. |
