Reelin and ApoE receptors cooperate to enhance hippocampal synaptic plasticity and learning.
Two apolipoprotein E (apoE) receptors, the very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) receptor and apoE receptor 2 (apoER2), are also receptors for Reelin, a signaling protein that regulates neuronal migration during brain development. In the adult brain, Reelin is expressed by GABA-ergic interneurons, suggesting a potential function as a modulator of neurotransmission. ApoE receptors have been indire...
متن کاملEstrogen and hippocampal synaptic plasticity.
During the past several years, there has been increasing interest in the effects of estrogen on neural function. This enthusiasm is driven, in part, by the results of early clinical studies suggesting that estrogen therapy given after menopause may prevent, or at least delay, the onset of Alzheimer's disease in older women. However, later clinical trials of women with probable Alzheimer's disea...
متن کاملThe effect of ketamine on synaptic transmission and synaptic plasticity in CA1 area of rat hippocampal slices
The effect of ketamine (1-100 µM), which has NMDA receptor antagonist properties, on synaptic transmission and long-term potentiation (LTP) in CAl area of rat hippocampus was examined in vitro. Field potentials were recorded in pyramidal cell layer following Schaffer collateral stimulation. Primed-burst stimulation (PEs) was used for induction of LTP. The amplitude of population spiks (PS) was ...
متن کاملHippocampal Insulin Resistance Impairs Spatial Learning and Synaptic Plasticity
Insulin receptors (IRs) are expressed in discrete neuronal populations in the central nervous system, including the hippocampus. To elucidate the functional role of hippocampal IRs independent of metabolic function, we generated a model of hippocampal-specific insulin resistance using a lentiviral vector expressing an IR antisense sequence (LV-IRAS). LV-IRAS effectively downregulates IR express...
متن کاملSynaptic plasticity: hippocampal LTP.
One of the most intensively studied forms of synaptic plasticity is long-term potentiation (LTP). The past year has seen further evidence advanced on both sides of the presynaptic/postsynaptic locus of expression debate, without an obvious path to reconcile the two views. Real progress has been made, however, in clarifying the possible role of nitric oxide as a retrograde messenger and the cell...
