sec(a(CHEBI:"glutamate(2-)")) increases bp(GO:"long-term synaptic potentiation") View Subject | View Object

The combination of enhanced glutamatergic release and strong postsynaptic response produces LTP of the glutamatergic afferents. PubMed:17009926

bp(GO:"depolarization of postsynaptic membrane") increases bp(GO:"long-term synaptic potentiation") View Subject | View Object

The combination of enhanced glutamatergic release and strong postsynaptic response produces LTP of the glutamatergic afferents. PubMed:17009926

act(p(MESH:"Receptors, N-Methyl-D-Aspartate")) increases bp(GO:"long-term synaptic potentiation") View Subject | View Object

This depolarization and firing of the DA neurons helps to relieve the divalent cation block of NMDA receptors and, thus, enables the NMDA receptors to participate in long-term synaptic potentiation of glutamatergic afferents onto midbrain dopamine neurons. PubMed:26472524
