متن کاملExtracellular Ca2+ Depletion Contributes to Fast Activity-Dependent Modulation of Synaptic Transmission in the Brain
Synaptic activation is associated with rapid changes in intracellular Ca(2+), while the extracellular Ca(2+) level is generally assumed to be constant. Here, using a novel optical method to measure changes in extracellular Ca(2+) at high spatial and temporal resolution, we find that brief trains of synaptic transmission in hippocampal area CA1 induce transient depletion of extracellular Ca(2+)....
متن کاملExtracellular calcium depletion as a mechanism of short-term synaptic depression.
Recent experiments have demonstrated that normal neural activity can cause significant decrements in external calcium levels, and that these decrements mediate a form of short-term synaptic depression. These findings raise the possibility that certain forms of short-term synaptic depression at glutamatergic synapses throughout the mammalian CNS may be influenced by similar changes in external c...
متن کاملCalcium-sensing receptor activation depresses synaptic transmission.
At excitatory synapses, decreases in cleft [Ca] arising from activity-dependent transmembrane Ca flux reduce the probability of subsequent transmitter release. Intense neural activity, induced by physiological and pathological stimuli, disturb the external microenvironment reducing extracellular [Ca] ([Ca](o)) and thus may impair neurotransmission. Increases in [Ca](o) activate the extracellula...
متن کاملCholesterol depletion inhibits synaptic transmission and synaptic plasticity in rat hippocampus.
Several neurodegenerative disorders are associated with impaired cholesterol homeostasis in the nervous system where cholesterol is known to play a role in modulating synaptic activity and stabilizing membrane microdomains. In the present report, we investigated the effects of methyl-beta-cyclodextrin-induced cholesterol depletion on synaptic transmission and on the expression of 1) paired-puls...
