Sensory funneling of liminal multiple- point air-puff stimulation produces dramatic reduction in reaction time but relatively invariant P300 somatosensory evoked potential.

abstract：:The mechanisms underlying the expression of long-term synaptic potentiation (LTP) in the lateral and medial perforant path inputs to the dentate gyrus were examined in pentobarbital anaesthetized rats. Lateral path LTP was accompanied by a robust, long-lasting reduction in lateral path paired-pulse facilitation (PPF)....
