Compound effect of microwave exposure and restraint stress on hippocampal synaptic plasticity in rats

摘要

Many researches report the harmful impacts of thermal level microwave to helth. But, the effects of microwave onthe function of learning and memory are not further concerned yet. Additionally, we still know little about the compound impact of microwave exposure and stress reaction on learning and memory. As the central hippocampal synaptic plasticity is relevant to the function of learning and memory, and more, the long-term potentiation(LTP0 is as the classic electrophysiological index, so the effects of microwave and stress on LTP was studied accordingly.
