1 Reparatory effects of nicotine on NMDA receptor-mediated synaptic plasticity in the hippocampal CA1 region of chronically lead-exposed rats. Nicotine carbonic anhydrase 1 Rattus norvegicus
2 (1) Nicotine (1 microm) facilitated the induction of LTP in CA1 by a weak tetanic stimulation (100 Hz, 20 pulses), which does not by itself produce LTP in lead-exposed rats. Nicotine carbonic anhydrase 1 Rattus norvegicus
3 (3) Nicotine enhanced PPF in the hippocampal CA1 region, and the nicotine-facilitated LTP in lead-exposed rats was blocked by either d-(-)-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoic acid, the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, or picrotoxin, an antagonist of gamma-aminobutyric acid(A) receptors. Nicotine carbonic anhydrase 1 Rattus norvegicus
