Studies in animal models have shown that IF increases the long-term potentiation of neural transmission in different regions of the hippocampus in the brain. Using in-vitro electrophysiology techniques, this research explores to see the effects of IF in modulating the effects of synaptic plasticity, in the form of long-term potentiation, in the lateral and medial perforant paths of the dentate gyrus.enintermittent fastinglong-term potentiationsynaptic plasticityin-vitro electrophysiologyPoster
