Fmr1 deletion enhances and ultimately desensitizes CB(1) signaling in autaptic hippocampal neurons.
Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is a heritable form of mental retardation caused by a non-coding trinucleotide expansion of the FMR1 gene leading to loss of expression of this RNA binding protein. Mutations in this gene are strongly linked to enhanced Group I metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) signaling. A recent report found that mGluR5-dependent endogenous cannabinoid signaling is enhanced in h...
متن کاملInhibitory control of hippocampal inhibitory neurons
Information processing within neuronal networks is determined by a dynamic partnership between principal neurons and local circuit inhibitory interneurons. The population of GABAergic interneurons is extremely heterogeneous and comprises, in many brain regions, cells with divergent morphological and physiological properties, distinct molecular expression profiles, and highly specialized functio...
متن کاملCannabinoid CB1 receptor-dependent long-term depression in autaptic excitatory neurons.
Long-term depression (LTD) of synaptic signaling-lasting from tens of minutes to hours or longer-is a widespread form of synaptic plasticity in the brain. Neurons express diverse forms of LTD, including autaptic LTD (autLTD) observed in cultured hippocampal neurons, the mechanism of which remains unknown. We have recently reported that autaptic neurons express both endocannabinoid-mediated depo...
متن کاملCannabinoid receptor agonists protect cultured rat hippocampal neurons from excitotoxicity.
Cannabinoid receptor agonists act presynaptically to inhibit the release of glutamate. Because other drugs with this action are known to reduce excitotoxicity, we tested several cannabimimetics in a model of synaptically mediated neuronal death. Reduction of the extracellular Mg2+ concentration to 0.1 mM evoked a repetitive pattern of intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) spiking that, whe...
متن کاملInhibitory effects of acorn extract on glutamate-induced calcium signaling in cultured rat hippocampal neurons.
Various effects of acorn extract have been reported including antioxidant activity, cytotoxicity against cancer cells, and the levels of acetylcholine and its related enzyme activities in the dementia mouse models. However, it is unclear whether acorn extract inhibits glutamate-induced calcium signaling in hippocampal neurons. This study was an investigation into the effect of acorn extract on ...
