title: The effects of corticoliberin at different concentrations on long-term potentiation in slices of rat olfactory cortex.
abstract: Experiments were performed to investigate evoked focal potentials in slices of rat olfactory cortex. The results showed that 1 microM corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF; corticoliberin) increases the frequency of posttetanic potentiation, which had a shorter delay phase than in control experiments. Posttetanic potentiation during perfusion with 0.1 microM corticoliberin had a longer delay phase than in control experiments.
