Specific Role for GSK3α in Limiting Long-Term Potentiation in CA1 Pyramidal Neurons of Adult Mouse Hippocampus
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3) mediates phosphorylation of several hundred proteins, and its aberrant activity is associated with an array of prevalent disorders. The two paralogs, GSK3α and GSK3β, are expressed ubiquitously and fulfill common as well as unique tasks throughout the body. In the CNS, it is established that GSK3 is involved in synaptic plasticity. However, the relative roles of GSK3 paralogs in synaptic plasticity remains controversial. Here, we used hippocampal slices obtained from adult mice to determine the role of each paralog in CA3−CA1 long-term potentiation (LTP) of synaptic transmission, a form of plasticity critically required in learning and memory. Conditional Camk2a Cre-driven neuronal deletion of the Gsk3a gene, but not Gsk3b, resulted in enhanced LTP. There were no changes in basal synaptic function in either of the paralog-specific knockouts, including several measures of presynaptic function. Therefore, GSK3α has a specific role in serving to limit LTP in adult CA1, a postsynaptic function that is not compensated by GSK3β.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
