Long-term potentiation involves neurons increasing their expression of receptors, particularly glutamate receptors, to enhance their response to glutamate, and also facilitates conditions that increase neurotransmitter release.
1. Neurons are induced to express more receptors (<b>Glutamate receptor</b>s) that can respond more robustly to a NT (<b>Glutamate</b>) <div>2. Will also create conditions to increase the release of the NT</div>
