TARPγ2-Derived Peptide Enhances Early-Phase Long-Term Potentiation and Impairs Memory Retention in Male Rats

Published March 12, 2026 13:28

Our new study shows that a short peptide derived from the TARPγ2 protein significantly influences synaptic plasticity in the brain: while it enhances early neural processes of learning, it simultaneously impairs later spatial memory retrieval in rats. These findings provide new insight into the molecular regulation of memory and may contribute to a better understanding of neurological disorders associated with altered synaptic function.
