Responses of primary somatosensory cortical neurons to controlled mechanical stimulation.
The results of psychophysical studies suggest that displacement velocity may contribute significantly to the sensation of subcortical somatosensory neurons. The cortical correlates of these phenomena, however, are not known. In the present study the responses of rapidly adapting (RA) neurons in the forelimb region of cat primary somatosensory cortex (SI) to controlled displacement of skin and h...
متن کاملNitric oxide mediates glutamate neurotoxicity in primary cortical cultures.
Nitric oxide (NO) mediates several biological actions, including relaxation of blood vessels, cytotoxicity of activated macrophages, and formation of cGMP by activation of glutamate receptors in cerebellar slices. Nitric oxide synthase (EC 1.14.23.-) immunoreactivity is colocalized with nicotinamide adenine di-nucleotide phosphate diaphorase in neurons that are uniquely resistant to toxic insul...
متن کاملD1/D5 dopamine receptors stimulate intracellular calcium release in primary cultures of neocortical and hippocampal neurons.
D1/D5 dopamine receptors in basal ganglia, hippocampus, and cerebral cortex modulate motor, reward, and cognitive behavior. Previous work with recombinant proteins revealed that in cells primed with heterologous G(q/11)-coupled G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) agonists, the typically G(s)-linked D1/D5 receptors can stimulate robust release of calcium from internal stores when coexpressed with ...
متن کاملActivation of ryanodine receptors induces calcium influx in a neuroblastoma cell line lacking calcium influx factor activity.
We have further characterized the Ca2+ signalling properties of the NG115-401L (or 401L) neuroblastoma cell line, which has served as an important cell line for investigating SOC (store-operated channel) influx pathways. These cells possess an unusual Ca2+ signalling phenotype characterized by the absence of Ca2+ influx when Ca2+ stores are depleted by inhibitors of SERCA (sarcoplasmic/endoplas...
متن کاملRapid communication between neurons and astrocytes in primary cortical cultures.
The identification of neurotransmitter receptors and voltage-sensitive ion channels on astrocytes (reviewed by Barres, 1991) has renewed interest in how these cells respond to neuronal activity. To investigate the physiology of neuron astrocyte signaling, we have employed primary cortical cultures that contain both neuronal and glial cells. As the neurons in these cultures exhibit synchronous s...
