Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates changes in fractional vegetation cover (FVC) in Beijing from 2000 to 2020, revealing a positive overall trend in high vegetation areas primarily located in ecological conservation zones.
  • - Urbanization caused a significant increase in artificial land use, with its share rising from 9.69% in 2000 to 21.19% in 2020, mainly due to the conversion of arable land.
  • - A notable negative correlation between FVC and urbanization index indicates that as urbanization increases, the vegetation cover tends to decrease, highlighting the impact of urban development on ecological systems.

Reversal of long-term potentiation (LTP) by low-frequency stimulation (LFS) is often referred to as depotentiation (DP), a phenomenon that is time-dependent. The present study aimed to determine whether LTP could still be reversed when the stimulation was applied beyond the optimal time window in hippocampal slices from adult rats. Field excitatory postsynaptic potentials (fEPSPs) were recorded from the strata radiatum in CA1, following stimulation of Schaffer collaterals.
