Glycosylation is altered by ethanol in rat hippocampal cultured neurons.
AIMS Glycoproteins, such as adhesion molecules and growth factors, participate in the regulation of nervous system development. Ethanol affects the synthesis, intracellular transport, distribution, and secretion of N-glycoproteins in different cell types, including astrocytes and hepatocytes, suggesting alterations in the glycosylation process. We analysed the effect of exposure to low doses of...
متن کاملEthanol impairs memory by reducing the synaptic connection of the hippocampal spatial neurons
Background and Objective: Ethanol has undesirable effects on memory and synaptic communication. However, its impact on the learned spatial memory is unclear. We investigated the damaging effects of ethanol on place neurons of rat’s hippocampal CA1.Materials and Methods: Sixty four male Wistar rats (250 g) were administered high (1-8 g/kg) or low (0.05-0.1 g/kg) doses of ethanol intraperit...
متن کاملMutant presenilin 1 alters synaptic transmission in cultured hippocampal neurons.
Mutations in presenilins are the major cause of familial Alzheimer disease, but the precise pathogenic mechanism by which presenilin (PS) mutations cause synaptic dysfunction leading to memory loss and neurodegeneration remains unclear. Using autaptic hippocampal cultures from transgenic mice expressing human PS1 with the A246E mutation, we demonstrate that mutant PS1 significantly depressed th...
متن کاملRelease-independent short-term synaptic depression in cultured hippocampal neurons.
Short-term synaptic plasticity may dramatically influence neuronal information transfer, yet the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. In autapses (self-synapses) formed by cultured hippocampal neurons, short-term synaptic depression (STD) had several unusual features. (1) Reduction of neurotransmitter release probability with Cd(2+), a blocker of voltage-gated calcium channels,...
متن کاملThe effect of sub-lethal doses of paraoxon on the growth of rat cultured hippocampal neurons in neurobasal/B27 medium
The qualitative morphologic study of the effects of organophosphate agents on development of neural cells in culture is a promising approach as a primitive step for further physiologic, electro physiologic and molecular investigation. Parathion is an OP (Organophosphate) used as an agricultural insecticide. Improper handling of this agent causes poisoning characterized by convulsive seizures, w...
