Impaired peri‐infarct long‐term potentiation in anaesthetized rats suggests alternative mechanisms of post‐stroke recovery
Early after stroke, a period of heightened plasticity in the peri‐infarct cortex is thought to provide the physiological substrate for functional motor recovery through increased expression of long‐term potentiation (LTP). Previous slice electrophysiology studies on the capacity for LTP after stroke reported conflictin...
