Long-term potentiation produces a long-term enhancement of glutamate responses at

B) NMDA synapses.
C) both AMPA and NMDA synapses.
D) neither AMPA nor NMDA synapses.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Long-term potentiation (LTP) primarily enhances the response at AMPA receptors by increasing their number and/or sensitivity, while NMDA receptors are involved in the induction of LTP but not in its maintenance.
