M 1 muscarinic cholinoceptors mediate inhibition of excitatory synaptic transmission in the hippocampus in vitro
The effects of the cholinoceptor agonist, carbachol (CCh), were examined in the rat hippocampal slice preparation. Intracellular recordings from CA 1 pyramidal neurones revealed that CCh (1-3/~M) inhibited excitatory postsynaptic responses evoked by stimulation of the Schaffer collateral/commissural pathway while, at the same time, direct excitability was enhanced. Extracellularly, CCh produced...
متن کاملA model for pleiotropic muscarinic potentiation of fast synaptic transmission.
The predominant form of muscarinic excitation in the forebrain and in sympathetic ganglia arises from m1 receptors coupled to the G(q/11) signal transduction pathway. Functional components of this system have been most completely mapped in frog sympathetic B neurons. Presynaptic stimulation of the B neuron produces a dual-component muscarinic excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) mediated by...
متن کاملSynaptic Transmission: A New Kind of Inhibition
Periglomerular cells in the olfactory bulb are the 'gatekeepers' of the olfactory system. A recent study shows that these cells inhibit themselves by releasing GABA from their own dendrites.
متن کاملCortical Synaptic Inhibition Declines during Auditory Learning.
Auditory learning is associated with an enhanced representation of acoustic cues in primary auditory cortex, and modulation of inhibitory strength is causally involved in learning. If this inhibitory plasticity is associated with task learning and improvement, its expression should emerge and persist until task proficiency is achieved. We tested this idea by measuring changes to cortical inhibi...
متن کاملCentral cholinesterase inhibition enhances glutamatergic synaptic transmission.
Central cholinergic overstimulation results in prolonged seizures of status epilepticus in humans and experimental animals. Cellular mechanisms of underlying seizures caused by cholinergic stimulation remain uncertain, but enhanced glutamatergic transmission is a potential mechanism. Paraoxon, an organophosphate cholinesterase inhibitor, enhanced glutamatergic transmission on hippocampal granul...
