Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The present study investigated the short-term and long-term synaptic plasticity of excitatory synapses formed by the nucleus reuniens (RE) and entorhinal cortex (EC) on the distal apical dendrites of CA1 pyramidal cells. RE-CA1 synapses are implicated in memory involving the hippocampus and medial prefrontal cortex. Current source density (CSD) analysis was used to identify excitatory and inhibitory currents following stimulation of RE or medial perforant path (MPP) in urethane-anesthetized mice in vivo. At the distal apical dendrites, RE evoked an initial excitatory sink followed by inhibitory sources at short (~ 30 ms) and long (150–200 ms) latencies, and often showing gamma (25–40 Hz) oscillations. Both RE-evoked and spontaneous gamma-frequency local field potentials displayed the same CSD depth profile. Paired-pulse facilitation (PPF) of the distal excitatory sink at 20–200 ms interpulse intervals was observed following RE stimulation, generally higher than that following MPP stimulation. Theta-frequency burst stimulation (TBS) of RE induced input-specific long-term potentiation (LTP) at the distal dendritic CA1 synapses, accompanied by reduction of PPF. After TBS of the MPP, the MPP-CA1 distal dendritic synapse could manifest LTP or long-term depression, but the non-tetanized RE-CA1 synapse was typically potentiated. Heterosynaptic potentiation of the RE to CA1 distal synapses may occur after repeated activity of EC afferents, or spread of MPP stimulus currents to coursing RE afferents. The results indicate a propensity of RE-CA1 distal excitatory synapses to show PPF, LTP and gamma oscillations, all of which may participate in memory processing by RE and EC.
