A new study reveals a single stimulation to the synapses of hippocampal neurons triggered numerous cycles where the memory-coding Arc gene produced mRNA molecules that were then translated into synapse-strengthening Arc proteins. From the findings, researchers determined a novel feedback loop that helps explain how short-lived mRNA and proteins create long-term memories in the brain.<\/p>\n<p>Source: albert einstein college of medicine.<\/p>\n<p>Helping your mother make pancakes when you were three\u2026riding your bike without training wheels\u2026your first romantic kiss: How do we retain vivid memories of long-ago events?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summary: Researchers shed new light on the molecular and genetic basis of long-term memory formation in the brain.
