Used this compound to induce Group I mGluR-dependent LTD in acute brain slices from the mouse hippocampus at a concentration of 50μM. Reliably induces LTD to 50-80% of baseline.
Pay close attention to enantiomer. Some report that R,S-DHPG is not as effective at inducing LTD as S-DHPG alone, which is something I will anecdotally corroborate.
