| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project examined the synaptic plasticity after presentation negative episode (foot shock) by using Inhibitory avoidance task. We recorded mEPSCs (excitatory postsynaptic currents) and mIPSCs (miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents) at the 0, 5, 10, 20, 30 min after presentation of episode. The results showed the increase of mEPSCs and mIPSCs from 5 min after presentation of episode. These increase of mEPSCs and mIPSCs showed an increasing numbers of AMPA and GABAA receptors on hippocampal CA1 spine. Thus, we propose that the encoding of negative episode memory induced the synaptic plasticity in hippocampal CA1 neuron within 5 min.
