Abstract excerpt
Long-term depression (LTD) of parallel fibre (PF)-Purkinje cell synapses in the cerebellum is recognized as a cellular substrate of motor learning. Although the delta2 glutamate receptor (GluRdelta2) has been shown to be crucial for LTD, the mechanisms by which GluRdelta2 functions remain elusive. In this study, we developed a virus vector-based gene transfer approach to rescue impaired LTD in GluRdelta2-null...
