Abstract(in English) In contrast to Hebb type learning rule, in spatiotemporal learning rule (STLR) proposed by Tsukada et al. (1996), synaptic strength is modified by both spatial coincidence and the temporal summation of synaptic inputs without back propagating action potential (BPAP). When a pair of strong and weak stimulation is applied simultaneously in hippocampal CA1, heterosynaptic associative LTP, one of the physiological evidence of STLR, is induced in both stimulation sites. Our previous study showed that heterosynaptic associative LTP could be induced under decreased-BPAPs condition using low TTX application. However, the mechanism of LTP was unclear. In this study, we recorded dynamic responses in both strong and weak input site under low TTX condition by using voltage-sensitive dye. From this result, it is clear that EPSP produced by strong stimulation propagates along the dendrite and affects the synaptic strength of weak input site.
