Effect of Norepinephrine depletion on induction of experience dependent plasticity in male rat barrel cortex
Introduction: Barrel cortex of rats is a part of somatosensory cortex, which receives information from facial whiskers. Vibrisectomy by sensory deprivation leads to some changes in the barrel cortex, which have been known as experience dependent plasticity. On the other hand, Norepinephrine (NE) and locus coeruleus, which is the main source of NE, influenced response properties of cortical bar...
متن کاملCholinergic markers in the plasticity of murine barrel field.
Cholinergic muscarinic receptor binding and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) histochemistry were studied in the barrel cortex of adult, vibrissae deprived and vibrissae denervated mice. In the control barrel field muscarinic receptors labeled with [3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate ([3H]QNB) showed a higher density in the granular cortex and a higher accumulation of label in the barrels. AChE staining reve...

متن کاملRapid fluctuations in rat barrel cortex plasticity.
Neuronal populations in the sensory cortex exhibit fluctuations in excitability, and the present experiments tested the hypothesis that these variations coincide with peaks and troughs in cortical modifiability. The activity of multiunit neuronal clusters under light urethane anesthesia was recorded through 100-microelectrode arrays implanted in the infragranular layers of rat barrel cortex. Sp...
متن کاملChronic suppression of activity in barrel field cortex downregulates sensory responses in contralateral barrel field cortex.
Numerous lines of evidence indicate that neural information is exchanged between the cerebral hemispheres via the corpus callosum. Unilateral ablation lesions of barrel field cortex (BFC) in adult rats induce strong suppression of background and evoked activity in the contralateral barrel cortex and significantly delay the onset of experience-dependent plasticity. The present experiments were d...
