Dendritic spikes in hippocampal granule cells are necessary for long-term potentiation at the perforant path synapse
Long-term potentiation (LTP) of synaptic responses is essential for hippocampal memory function. Perforant-path (PP) synapses on hippocampal granule cells (GCs) contribute to the formation of associative memories, which are considered the cellular correlates of memory engrams. However, the mechanism...
