m-Chlorophenylbiguanide (mCPBG) is a potent high-affinity agonist of the 5-HT3 receptor, exhibiting an inhibitory effect on long-term potentiation (LTP) in the mossy fiber-CA3 system. mCPBG attenuates the magnitude of LTP at concentrations of 0.3-1 microM, demonstrating its role in modulating synaptic plasticity. Additionally, the impact of mCPBG on LTP is reversible by the GABAA receptor antagonist bicuculline, indicating a connection between its action and GABAergic neurotransmission. | [Definition]
