Synaptic Plasticity and Neurological Disorders in Neurotropic Viral Infections by Venkata Subba Rao Atluri, Melissa Hidalgo, Thangavel Samikkannu, Kesava Rao Venkata Kurapati, Madhavan Nair

“…Although these neurotropic viruses are able to be harbored in or infect the nervous system, not all the neurotropic viruses have been reported to cause disrupted synaptic plasticity and impaired cognitive functions. In this review, we have discussed the neurotropic viruses, which play a major role in altered synaptic plasticity and neurological disorders.…”

Transcriptional Control of Synaptic Plasticity by Transcription Factor NF-κB by Christian Engelmann, Ronny Haenold

“…Activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) transcription factors is required for the induction of synaptic plasticity and memory formation. All components of this signaling pathway are localized at synapses, and transcriptionally active NF-κB dimers move to the nucleus to translate synaptic signals into altered gene expression. …”

Inhibition of DNA Methylation Impairs Synaptic Plasticity during an Early Time Window in Rats by Pablo Muñoz, Carolina Estay, Paula Díaz, Claudio Elgueta, Álvaro O. Ardiles, Pablo A. Lizana

“…Although the importance of DNA methylation-dependent gene expression to neuronal plasticity is well established, the dynamics of methylation and demethylation during the induction and expression of synaptic plasticity have not been explored. Here, we combined electrophysiological, pharmacological, molecular, and immunohistochemical approaches to examine the contribution of DNA methylation and the phosphorylation of Methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2) to synaptic plasticity. …”
