Expression of exocytosis proteins in rat supraoptic nucleus neurones.
In magnocellular neurones of the supraoptic nucleus (SON), the neuropeptides vasopressin and oxytocin are synthesised and packaged into large dense-cored vesicles (LDCVs). These vesicles undergo regulated exocytosis from nerve terminals in the posterior pituitary gland and from somata/dendrites in the SON. Regulated exocytosis of LDCVs is considered to involve the soluble N-ethylmaleimide sensi...
متن کاملEnhancement of NMDA receptor-mediated currents by light in rat neurones in vitro.
1. N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor function can be modified by the action of several endogenous and exogenous modulatory processes. In the present study, we report that brief pulses of light potentiate NMDA, but not non-NMDA glutamatergic receptor-mediated whole-cell and single channel currents in rat cortical neurones in vitro. In addition, light also potentiated NMDA receptor-mediated wh...
متن کاملFrequency-dependent depletion of secretory vesicle pools modulates bursting in vasopressin neurones of the rat supraoptic nucleus
CT ED P RO O Abstract When stimulated, vasopressin neurones discharge lengthy, repeating bursts of action potentials. An increase in the stimulus strength causes both a lengthening of the bursts’ active phase and an increase in the intra-burst firing frequency. Here we extend our earlier model (P. Roper, J. Callaway, W. Armstrong. J. Neurosci. 24(20) (2004) 4831.) for phasic bursting at a const...
متن کاملDopamine D4 receptor-mediated presynaptic inhibition of GABAergic transmission in the rat supraoptic nucleus.
The mechanism by which dopamine induces or facilitates neurohypophysial hormone release is not completely understood. Because oxytocin- and vasopressin-secreting supraoptic neurons are under the control of a prominent GABAergic inhibition, we investigated the possibility that dopamine exerts its action by modulating GABA-mediated transmission. Whole cell voltage-clamp recordings of supraoptic n...
متن کاملThe effect of ketamine on NMDA receptor-mediated LTP depends on ketamine effects on non-NMDA-mediated synaptic transmission in CA1 area of rat hippocampal slices
It has been reported that ketamine as an uncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist has also non-NMDA receptor antagonist properties. We recently found that ketamine (20 ?M) affected differently induction of NMDA receptor-mediated long-term potentiation (LTP) when administered 30 min prior to tetanic Primed-Bursts (PBs) stimulation. On the other hand, ketamine also influenced...
