A model of synaptic plasticity: activation of mGluR I induced long-term theta oscillations in medial septal diagonal band of rat brain slice.

This study aimed to establish a model of synaptic plasticity by the activation of metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) I in rat medial septal diagonal band (MSDB). Electrophysiological experiment was performed to record the theta frequency oscillation activities in rat MSDB slices. The data were recorded and analyzed with Spike 2 (CED, Cambridge, UK).
