Freely moving rats, chronically implanted with stimulation electrodes in the medial entorhinal cortex and recording electrodes in the dentate gyrus, received two 400 .mu.g intraventricular injections of anisomycin during a tetanization procedure that induced a long-lasting potentiation (72 h) of the monosynaptic field potential. Inhibition of protein synthesis during the tetanization procedure did not immediately influence the induction of long-term potentiation (LTP). However, 3-4 h after the beginning of tetanization the potentiation effect decayed progressively and was abolished totally during the remaining 7 day observation period. In control experiments anisomycin did not affect the slope of field EPSP [excitatory post-synaptic potentials] and produced a reversible depression of the population spike amplitude. Evidently, a relatively specific effect of the protein synthesis inhibitor on mechanisms is involved in a late phase of LTP stabilization.
