Actin in synaptic cytoskeleton during long-term potentiation in hippocampal slices.
Potentiated hippocampal synapses were found to be characterized by specific changes of the cytoskeleton in the postsynaptic spine. Aggregated bundles of actin filaments in the potentiated spines were revealed by decoration with myosin subfragment-1.
