Abstract
The third messenger protein kinase C (PKC) and the de novo synthesis of proteins are selectively involved in late phases of long-term potentiation (LTP), but not in its initiation. Whereas polymyxin B, an inhibitor of protein kinase C, blocked LTP 1–2 hours after tetanization, anisomycin, an inhibitor of protein synthesis, resulted in a blockade of LTP from 5–6 hours onward.
