ChemLTP was conducted as previously described (Lu et al. 2001). Following vehicle or NYX‐2925 treatment (30 min), cells were washed and placed into chemLTP buffer (in mM: 140 NaCl, 33 glucose, 25 HEPES, and 2 CaCl2; in μM: 200 glycine, 25 bicuculline, 1 TTX, and 1 strychnine) for 3 min at 37°C prior to being placed in recovery buffer for 20 min (in mM: 140 NaCl, 33 glucose, 25 HEPES, and 2 CaCl2; in μM: 25 bicuculline, 1 TTX, and 1 strychnine) at 37°C. The chemLTP vehicle cohort was placed into recovery buffer twice instead of chemLTP buffer followed by recovery buffer. Next, cells were washed (cold PBS) and fixed on ice (4% p‐formaldehyde, 4% sucrose, in PBS) for 13 min prior to blocking (10% donkey serum, Sigma‐Aldrich, Cat #: D9663) and incubation with rabbit primary antisera for GluA1 (1 : 10, 1 h, 4°C, Millipore, RRID: AB‐564636) as described (Ohashi et al. 2016), and cy3‐labelled secondary (Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, PA, USA, RRID: AB_2307443). Immunocytochemistry for PSD‐95 and MAP2 proceeded as described above.
