Ventral tegmental area inactivation suppresses the expression of CA1 long term potentiation in anesthetized rat.
The hippocampus receives dopaminergic projections from the ventral tegmental area (VTA). Modulatory effect of dopamine on hippocampal long term potentiation (LTP) has been studied before, but there are conflicting results and some limitations in previous reports. Most of these studies show a signifi...
