Dentate granule cells are essential for kainic acid-induced wet dog shakes but not for seizures.
The purpose of this study was to determine the role that dentate granule cells play in wet dog shakes (WDS), behavioral seizures, and hippocampal cell loss caused by systemic administration of kainic acid (KA). Rats were given bilateral injections of colchicine (COL) into the hippocampal formation to selectively lesion dentate granule cells. Two weeks later, they were injected subcutaneously wi...
متن کاملDentate granule cell neurogenesis after seizures induced by pentylenetrazol in rats.
Epileptic seizures originating from the limbic system have been shown to stimulate the proliferation rate of granule cell precursors in the adult brain, but it is not clear if other type(s) of seizures have the similar effects. This study examined the effects of pentylenetrazol (PTZ)-induced generalized clonic seizures on dentate granule cell neurogenesis in adult rats. Using systemic bromodeox...
متن کاملDendritic Integration in Hippocampal Dentate Granule Cells
Hippocampal granule cells are important relay stations that transfer information from the entorhinal cortex into the hippocampus proper. This process is critically determined by the integrative properties of granule cell dendrites. However, their small diameter has so far hampered efforts to examine their properties directly. Using a combination of dual somatodendritic patch-clamp recordings an...
متن کاملPten-less Dentate Granule Cells Make Fits
Hippocampal dentate granule cell abnormalities are thought to play a causative role in temporal lobe epilepsy, but their precise contribution has not been dissociated from coexisting pathological changes. In this issue of Neuron, Pun et al. (2012) show, for the first time, that inducing proexcitatory changes in a subset of DGCs in isolation is sufficient to cause epilepsy in a rodent.
متن کاملImmunocytochemical localization of the GABAA/benzodiazepine receptor in the guinea pig cochlear nucleus: evidence for receptor localization heterogeneity.
Immunocytochemistry with a monoclonal antibody against the GABAA/benzodiazepine receptor showed labeled axo-dendritic synapses in the anteroventral cochlear nucleus. In the dorsal cochlear nucleus, label was seen apposing both axo-somatic and axo-dendritic terminals. The results suggest a heterogeneous distribution of GABA receptors, together with a possible segregation of receptor subtypes bet...
