Presynaptic modulation of voltage-dependent Ca2+ current: mechanism for behavioral sensitization in Aplysia californica.
Behavioral sensitization of the gill-withdrawal reflex of Aplysia is the result of a prolonged increase in transmitter release from the presynaptic terminals of sensory neurons. Earlier work suggested that this presynaptic facilitation might be mediated by a serotonin-sensitive adenylate cyclase in the sensory neuron terminals. Here we present evidence that presynaptic facilitation results from...
متن کاملPresynaptic target of Ca2+ action on neuropeptide and acetylcholine release in Aplysia californica.
1. When buccal neuron B2 of Aplysia californica is co-cultured with sensory neurons (SNs), slow peptidergic synapses are formed. When B2 is co-cultured with neurons B3 or B6, fast cholinergic synapses are formed. 2. Patch pipettes were used to voltage clamp pre- and postsynaptic neurons and to load the caged Ca2+ chelator o-nitrophenyl EGTA (NPE) and the Ca2+ indicator BTC into presynaptic neur...
متن کاملThe effect of stress and glucocorticoids on modulation of pain in mice: Interaction with activation of voltage dependent Ca2+ channel
Previous studies indicated that stress and glucocorticoids have modulatory effects on acute pain. The aim of present study was to determine the interaction between stress and glucocorticoids with activation of voltage dependent Ca2+ channel on modulation of acute pain in mice. Male albino mice (25-30 g) were used for this experiment. Tail flick and hot plate were used for evaluation of analgesi...
متن کاملIdentification of neurons contributing to presynaptic inhibition in Aplysia californica.
Electrical stimulation of the connectives presynaptically inhibits the PSP from cell L10 to the left upper quadrant cells (LUQC). The present report describes the properties of some of the individual neurons contributing to this response. Action potentials produced in a cluster of cells in the abdominal ganglion reduce the amplitude of the L10-LUQC PSP for periods greater than 30 sec. At least ...
