Arginine Vasopressin Fragment AVP4-9 Facilitates Induction of Long-Term Potentiation in the Hippocampus

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Abstract

Long-term potentiation of CA1 field potentials was induced by weak tetanic orthodromic stimulation of the Schaffer collateral/commissural fibers in isolated hippocampal slices perfused with a medium containing arginine vasopressin fragment AVP4-9 in micromolar concentrations. It is hypothesized that AVP4-9 affects induction of long-term potentiation at the intracellular level.
