2.3. Stimulation Protocols: Induction of late-LTD, early-LTD, late-LTP and early-LTP For inducing late-LTD, a strong low-frequency stimulation protocol (SLFS) which consisted of 900 bursts (one burst consisted of 3 biphasic, constant current stimuli at a frequency of 20 Hz, interburst interval: 1 s, i.e. f=1 Hz, stimulus duration 0.2 ms per half-wave; a total number of stimuli of 2700) was found to be the most effective protocol (Sajikumar and Frey, 2003;Sajikumar and Frey, 2004a). This stimulation pattern produced a stable LTD in vitro for at least 8 h. For inducing a transient early-LTD a weak low-frequency stimulation protocol (WLFS) consisting of 900 pulses (f=1 Hz, impulse duration 0.2 ms per half-wave, a total number of stimuli of 900, as ever: biphasic, constant current stimuli) was determined to be the most efficient in inducing early-LTD (Sajikumar and Frey, 2003;Sajikumar and Frey, 2004a). Late-LTP was induced using three stimulus trains of 100 pulses (‘strong’ tetanus: f=100 Hz, stimulus duration 0.2 ms per polarity with 10 min intertrain-intervals) (Frey and Morris, 1997;Frey and Morris, 1998b). In experiments with induction of early-LTP, a single tetanus with 21 pulses was used (`weak’ tetanus: f=100 Hz, stimulus duration 0.2 ms per polarity, population spike threshold stimulus intensity for tetanization (Frey and Morris, 1997;Frey and Morris, 1998b). 57.
