Gamma frequency (about 20-70 Hz) oscillations occur during novel sensory stimulation, with tight synchrony over distances of at least 7 mm. Synchronization in the visual system has been proposed to reflect coactivation of different parts of the visual field by a single spatially extended object. We have shown that intracortical mechanisms, including spike doublet firing by interneurons, can account for tight long-range synchrony. Here we show that synchronous gamma oscillations in two sites also can cause long-lasting (&gt;1 hr) potentiation of recurrent excitatory synapses. Synchronous oscillations lasting &gt;400 ms in hippocampal area CA1 are associated with an increase in both excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) amplitude and action potential afterhyperpolarization size. The resulting EPSPs stabilize and synchronize a prolonged beta frequency (about 10-25 Hz) oscillation. The changes in EPSP size are not expressed during non-oscillatory behavior but reappear during subsequent gamma-oscillatory events. We propose that oscillation-induced EPSPs serve as a substrate for memory, whose expression either enhances or blocks synchronization of spatially separated sites. This phenomenon thus provides a dynamical mechanism for storage and retrieval of stimulus-specific neuronal assemblies.
