Journal ArticleDOI
Clonidine and cortical plasticity: possible evidence for noradrenergic involvement.
TL;DR: The results support the notion that CLON treatment interferes with ocular dominance plasticity by inhibiting noradrenergic transmission in visual cortex and discuss side effects of CLON, concluding that CLon's sedative effect may contribute to the lack of OD shift.

Book ChapterDOI
Functional signatificance of synaptic depression between cortical neurons
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured synaptic transmission between layer 4 and layer 2/3 in slices of rat visual cortex and used the data to construct an accurate mathematical description of intracortical short-term synaptic plasticity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hebb and anti-Hebb meet in the brainstem.
TL;DR: In a brainstem auditory nucleus, excitatory synapses from the same presynaptic neuron are shown to cause opposing forms of spike timing–dependent plasticity in projection neurons and GABAergic interneurons at low frequencies, but to cause the same form of plasticity at high frequencies.

Methods for suppression pcr
TL;DR: In this article, the detection, identification, and amplification of specific target species or target variants of nucleic acid sequences, even within an excess of unwanted similar sequences or variants, was discussed.
