“…While st-LTP was induced when EPSP led AP, st-LTD was induced when AP led EPSP according to the Hebbian principle of coincidence detection between presynaptic and postsynaptic activity. In this respect, mossy fiber-granule cell STDP is similar to that observed at different synapses mostly located in the neocortex and hippocampus (Magee and Johnston, 1997;Markram et al, 1997;Bi and Poo, 1998 first evidence that Hebbian STDP occurs in the cerebellum because previous observations only reported either non-Hebbian STDP at the parallel fiber-Purkinje-like cell synapse (Safo and Regehr, 2008;Piochon et al, 2012) or anti-Hebbian STDP at the corresponding synapses of cerebellum-like structures (Bell et al, 1997;Tzounopoulos et al, 2004;Wu et al, 2015). It should be noted that, different from Purkinje cells, granule cells show a rapid and complete spike back-propagation into the dendrites (Diwakar et al, 2009;Dover et al, 2016), so that information about AP generation can be faithfully transmitted to synaptic sites providing a key requirement for Hebbian STDP.…”
