Role of nitric oxide and endocannabinoids in synaptic plasticity in the perirhinal cortex and in visual recognition memory
Introduction and aims of the research Nitric oxide (NO) and endocannabinoids (eCBs) are major retrograde messengers, involved in synaptic plasticity (long-term potentiation, LTP, and long-term depression, LTD) in many brain areas (including hippocampus and neocortex), as well as in learning and memo...
