" ... A computational model, which simulated molecular processes underlying long-term synaptic facilitation (LTF) induction, predicted a rescue protocol of five pulses of 5-HT at non-uniform interstimulus intervals that overcame the consequences of reduced CREB-binding protein (CBP) and restored LTF. ..."
