4 Recording electrode (extracellular) Recording electrode (intracellular) 100% 5 sec Baseline 20 Hz... 2 hours 20 Hz Δw ij = μ x j (v i - φ) postsynaptic activation < threshold to decrease w ij

6 Induction of LTP or LTD depends not only on firing frequency but Induction of LTP or LTD depends not only on firing frequency but also on precise temporal relationship between the pre- and postsynaptic action potentials.

16 Summary: 1) If a pre-synaptic cell fires BEFORE a connected postsynaptic cell, the synapse connecting them increases in strength 2) If pre-synaptic cell fires AFTER a connected postsynaptic cell, the synpase between them decreases in strength pre post pre post pre post pre post

17 Consider our previous example on classical conditioning: Sensory input Motor output Food F S M pre before post

18 The change in EPSC (exitatory postsynaptic current) is plotted as a function of the time elapsed between the postsynaptic action potential and the the postsynaptic EPSP during simultaneous stimulation of pre- and postsynaptic cells.

35 Here we have systematically varied the rate, timing and number of coincident afferents in order to explore the rules that govern induction of long-term plasticity bt between monosynaptically connected tdthiktftdl5 thick, tufted neurons in rat visual cortex. Our experiments reveal a joint dependence of plasticity on timing and rate, as well as a novel form of cooperativity operating even when the postsynaptic AP is evoked by current injection. Based on these experiments we have constructed a quantitative description, which accurately predicts the build-up of potentiation and depression during random firing.
