Serotonin increases an anomalously rectifying K+ current in the Aplysia neuron R15.
Previous work has shown that serotonin causes an increase in K+ conductance in the identified Aplysia neuron R15. This response is mediated by cAMP-dependent protein phosphorylation. The results presented here show that the K+ channel modulated by serotonin is an anomalous or inward rectifier (designated IR) that is present in R15 together with the three other distinct K+ channels previously de...
متن کاملCalcium-dependent inactivation of a potassium current in the Aplysia neuron R15.
The endogenously bursting pacemaker neuron R15 of Aplysia exhibits an inwardly rectifying K+ current (IR) that was shown previously to be enhanced by various neurotransmitters via the intracellular second messenger, cyclic AMP (Drummond et al., 1980; Benson and Levitan, 1983; Levitan et al., 1987). Here we present evidence that Ca2+ influx, either caused by spontaneous bursting activity or elic...
متن کاملDecreased Response to Acetylcholine during Aging of Aplysia Neuron R15
How aging affects the communication between neurons is poorly understood. To address this question, we have studied the electrophysiological properties of identified neuron R15 of the marine mollusk Aplysia californica. R15 is a bursting neuron in the abdominal ganglia of the central nervous system and is implicated in reproduction, water balance, and heart function. Exposure to acetylcholine (...
متن کاملDopamine reduces slow outward current and calcium influx in burst-firing neuron R15 of Aplysia.
Dopamine's effect on calcium influx into the bursting neuron, R15, of Aplysia californica was tested by tail current measurements and by measurement of absorbance of intracellular Arsenazo III, a calcium-sensitive indicator. Slow outward tail currents were elicited by subthreshold depolarization in voltage clamp and were demonstrated to be dependent upon transient increases in intracellular cal...
متن کاملIntracellular injection of guanyl nucleotides alters the serotonin- induced increase in potassium conductance in Aplysia neuron R15
The effects of the adenylate cyclase inhibitor GDP beta S on the response of Aplysia neuron R15 to serotonin (5HT) were investigated. Previous studies have demonstrated that 5HT causes an increase in K+ conductance in R15 and that the response is mediated by cAMP. At concentrations in the micromolar range, GDP beta S inhibits the stimulation of adenylate cyclase by 5HT in particulate fractions ...
