Basolateral amygdala inactivation impairs learning-induced long-term potentiation in the cerebellar cortex.
Zhu, Lan; Sacco, Tiziana; Strata, Piergiorgio; Sacchetti, B. (Article)Learning to fear dangerous situations requires the participation of basolateral amygdala (BLA). In the present study, we provide evidence that BLA is necessary for the synaptic strengthening occurring during ... -
A change in the pattern of activity affects the developmental regression of the Purkinje cell polyinnervation by climbing fibers in the rat cerebellum
Andjus, P. R.; Zhu, Lan; Cesa, R.; Carulli, D.; Strata, Piergiorgio (Article)Pattern of activity during development is important for the refinement of the final architecture of the brain. In the cerebellar cortex, the regression from multiple to single climbing fiber innervation of the Purkinje ... -
The effects of fear conditioning on cerebellar LTP and LTD
Zhu, Lan; Scelfo, B.; Hartell, N. A.; Strata, Piergiorgio; Sacchetti, B. (Article)Long-term potentiation (LTP) and depression (LTD) at parallel fibre-Purkinje cell synapses have been described in vitro in the cerebellar cortex, but the physiological roles of these two forms of plasticity ... -
Membrane excitability and fear conditioning in cerebellar Purkinje cell
Zhu, Lan; Scelfo, B.; Tempia, F.; Sacchetti, B.; Strata, Piergiorgio (Article)In a previous study it has been demonstrated that fear conditioning is associated with a long-lasting potentiation of parallel fiber to Purkinje cell synaptic transmission in vermal lobules V and VI. Since ... -
Metabotropic glutamate receptor-mediated currents at the climbing fiber to Purkinje cell synapse
Andjus, P. R.; Bajic, A.; Zhu, Lan; Schachner, M.; Strata, Piergiorgio (Article)Different forms of synaptic plasticity in the cerebellum expressed at the synapses onto Purkinje cells (PCs) are mediated by membrane metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs). There are three main mGluR ... -
Pharmacology of the metabotropic GluR-mediated current at the climbing fiber to Purkinje cell synapse
Zhu, Lan; Strata, Piergiorgio; Andjus, P. R. (Conference)Different forms of synaptic plasticity in the cerebellum are mediated by metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs). At parallel fiber (PF) to Purkinje cell (PC) synapses activation of mGluR gives rise to a well known slow ... -

Short-term facilitation and depression in the cerebellum: some observations on wild-type and mutant rodents deficient in the extracellular matrix molecule tenascin C
Andjus, P. R.; Bajic, A.; Zhu, Lan; Schachner, M.; Strata, Piergiorgio (Article)Short-term plasticity was studied on synapses to Purkinje cells (PC): paired-pulse facilitation in parallel fibers (PF) and paired-pulse depression in climbing fibers (CF). Both phenomena relate to synaptic ...
