Evidence of Maintenance Tagging in the Hippocampus for the Persistence of Long-Lasting Memory Storage

The synaptic tagging and capture (STC) hypothesis provides a compelling explanation for synaptic specificity and facilitation of long-term potentiation. Its implication on long-term memory (LTM) formation led to postulate the behavioral tagging mechanism. Here we show that a maintenance tagging proc...
