Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A ultra-short acting opiate, remifentanil, promoted the dephospholyration of hippocampal AMPA receptors in a dose-dependent manner, leading to the reduction of membrane AMPA receptors. Furthermore, this phenomenon was mediated by protein phosphatase1. In vivo manipulation to promote the dephospholyration of hippocampal AMPA receptors could erase fear memory in the rats.
