This paper establishes an organotypic co-culture model to study long-range hippocampal-prefrontal connectivity and plasticity, showing preserved intrinsic properties and functional responses.

This study uses in vitro rMS and computational modeling to show that rTMS enhances synaptic plasticity through cooperative pre- and postsynaptic activity mediated by BDNF.

This study shows that iTBS600 induces long-term potentiation and structural changes in mouse brain slices, with direction-dependent effects and preserved network stability.

This paper investigates how homeostatic synaptic scaling and structural plasticity interact to maintain neural network firing rates under activity perturbations.

The paper investigates microglial and astrocytic responses to a Schaffer collateral lesion and MMPs modulation in mouse hippocampal slice cultures, revealing region-specific changes.

This study shows that synaptopodin and the spine apparatus organelle are essential for lesion-induced synaptic plasticity at hippocampal mossy fiber synapses in mice.

This study shows antiepileptic drugs enhance excitatory neurotransmission in human neocortical pyramidal neurons through homeostatic synaptic plasticity.

This study investigates the role of amyloid precursor protein (APP) in synaptic transmission at medial perforant path synapses using organotypic cultures and finds that presynaptic APP affects neurotransmission efficacy.

This study shows that all-trans retinoic acid induces synaptopodin-dependent metaplasticity in mouse dentate granule cells without altering baseline synaptic transmission.

This study shows that 10 Hz rTMS induces synaptic plasticity via microglia-released cytokines, with TNF and IL6 playing a key role.

This study shows all-trans retinoic acid induces synaptic plasticity in human cortical neurons by causing structural and functional changes in excitatory synapses.

This paper reviews rTMS studies from 1991 to 2020, finding most use motor threshold intensity and lack sufficient detail to reproduce stimulation parameters.

The paper investigates how systemic inflammation affects synaptic plasticity using repetitive magnetic stimulation and shows that anti-inflammatory cytokines can restore plasticity in inflamed tissue cultures.
