摘要:
During the last two decades. transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has rapidly become a valuable method to investigate noninvasively the human brain In addition. repetitive TMS (rTMS) is able to induce changes in brain activity that last alter stimulation Therefore. rTMS has therapeutic potential in patients with neurologic and psychiatric disorders It is. however, unclear by which mechanism rTMS induces these lasting effects on the hi am The effects of rTMS are often described as LTD- or LTP-like. because the duration of these alterations seems to implicate changes in synaptic plasticity In this review we therefore discuss. based on rTMS experiments and knowledge about synaptic plasticity. whether the physiologic basis of rTMS-effects relates to changes in synaptic plasticity We present seven lines of evidence that strongly suggest a link between the aftereffects induced by rTMS and the induction of synaptic plasticity It is, nevertheless, important to realize that at present it is impossible to demonstrate a direct link between rTMS on the one hand and synaptic plasticity on the other Therefore. we provide suggestions for future. innovating research. aiming to investigate both the local effects of rTMS on the synapse and the effects of rTMS on other. more global levels of bram organization Only in that way can the aftereffects of rTMS on the brain be completely understood (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc All rights reserved
