LIS1-dependent retrograde translocation of excitatory synapses in developing interneuron dendrites
Synaptic remodelling coordinated with dendritic growth is essential for proper development of neural connections. After establishment of synaptic contacts, synaptic junctions are thought to become stationary and provide fixed anchoring points for further dendritic growth. However, the possibility of active translocation of synapses along dendritic protrusions, to guide the proper arrangement of...
متن کاملBDNF Has Opposite Effects on the Quantal Amplitude of Pyramidal Neuron and Interneuron Excitatory Synapses
Recently, we have identified a novel form of synaptic plasticity that acts to stabilize neocortical firing rates by scaling the quantal amplitude of AMPA-mediated synaptic inputs up or down as a function of neuronal activity. Here, we show that the effects of activity blockade on quantal amplitude are mediated through the neurotrophin brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Exogenous BDNF pre...
متن کاملCoordination of startle and swimming neural systems in the pteropod mollusk Clione limacina: role of the cerebral cholinergic interneuron.
The holoplanktonic pteropod mollusk Clione limacina has a unique startle system that provides a very fast, ballistic movement of the animal during escape or prey capture behaviors. The startle system consists of two groups of large pedal motoneurons that control ventral or dorsal flexions of the wings. Although startle motoneurons innervate the same musculature used during normal swimming, they...
متن کاملCoexistence of excitatory and inhibitory GABA synapses in the cerebellar interneuron network.
Functional GABA synapses are usually assumed to be inhibitory. However, we show here that inhibitory and excitatory GABA connections coexist in the cerebellar interneuron network. The reversal potential of GABAergic currents (E(GABA)) measured in interneurons is relatively depolarized and contrasts with the hyperpolarized value found in Purkinje cells (-58 and -85 mV respectively). This finding...
متن کاملInnate Recognition of Intracellular Bacterial Growth Is Driven by the TIFA-Dependent Cytosolic Surveillance Pathway.
Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) act as sentinels for incoming pathogens. Cytosol-invasive bacteria, such as Shigella flexneri, trigger a robust pro-inflammatory nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) response from IECs that is believed to depend entirely on the peptidoglycan sensor NOD1. We found that, during Shigella infection, the TRAF-interacting forkhead-associated protein A (TIFA)-dependent cytosoli...
