ABSTRACT
Reactive sulfur species, including hydrogen sulfide (H In this study, we found that increased synaptic activity triggered sulfide generation and protein sulfhydration. Activity-triggered sulfide production was essential for N-methyl-D-aspartate subtype glutamate receptor (NMDAR)-dependent LTP via maintaining the availability of d-serine, a primary coagonist for synaptic NMDARs. Genetic knockdown of cystathionine β-synthase, not cystathionine γ-lyase, impaired LTP. H
