Psychosocial stress-induced hypertension results from in vivo expression of long-term potentiation in rat sympathetic ganglia

Long-term potentiation in sympathetic ganglia (gLTP) is an activity-dependent unique form of synaptic plasticity in that it is serotonin-dependent and can be completely inhibited by 5-HT3 receptor antagonists. Long lasting enhancement of the basal tone of ganglionic transmission seen with gLTP resul...
