Nonuniform distribution of Ca2+ channel subtypes on presynaptic terminals of excitatory synapses in hippocampal cultures.
Several subtypes of Ca2+ channel support the release of glutamate at excitatory synapses. We investigated the pattern of colocalization of these subtypes on presynaptic terminals in hippocampal cultures. N-type (conotoxin GVIA-sensitive) or P/Q-type (agatoxin IVA-sensitive) Ca2+ channels were blocked selectively, and the reduction in transmitter release probability (Pr) was measured with MK-801...
متن کاملNMDA receptor subtypes at autaptic synapses of cerebellar granule neurons.
We studied the action potential-evoked autaptic N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor-mediated excitatory postsynaptic currents (NMDA-EPSCs) using solitary cerebellar neurons cultured in microislands from wild-type (+/+), NR2A subunit knockout (NR2A-/-), and NR2C subunit knockout (NR2C-/-) mice. The peak amplitude of autaptic NMDA-EPSCs increased for all genotypes between days in vitro 8 (DIV8) and DIV...
متن کاملCa2+ channel subtypes and pharmacology in the kidney.
A large body of evidence has accrued indicating that voltage-gated Ca(2+) channel subtypes, including L-, T-, N-, and P/Q-type, are present within renal vascular and tubular tissues, and the blockade of these Ca(2+) channels produces diverse actions on renal microcirculation. Because nifedipine acts exclusively on L-type Ca(2+) channels, the observation that nifedipine predominantly dilates aff...
متن کاملDifferential cAMP signaling at hippocampal output synapses.
cAMP is a critical second messenger involved in synaptic transmission and synaptic plasticity. Here, we show that activation of the adenylyl cyclase by forskolin and application of the cAMP-analog Sp-5,6-DCl-cBIMPS both mimicked and occluded tetanus-induced long-term potentiation (LTP) in subicular bursting neurons, but not in subicular regular firing cells. Furthermore, LTP in bursting cells w...
متن کاملRapid Ca2+-dependent decrease of protein ubiquitination at synapses.
Protein ubiquitination has been implicated in the regulation of axonal growth and synaptic plasticity as well as in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. Here we show that depolarization-dependent Ca2+ influx into synaptosomes produces a global, rapid (range of seconds), and reversible decrease of the ubiquitinated state of proteins, which correlates with the Ca2+-dependent dephosphor...
