Synapse-to-neuron ratio is inversely related to neuronal density in mature neuronal cultures.
Synapse formation is a fundamental process in neurons that occurs throughout development, maturity, and aging. Although these stages contain disparate and fluctuating numbers of mature neurons, tactics employed by neuronal networks to modulate synapse number as a function of neuronal density are not well understood. The goal of this study was to utilize an in vitro model to assess the influence...
متن کاملNeuron-to-neuron α-synuclein propagation in vivo is independent of neuronal injury
INTRODUCTION Interneuronal propagation of α-synuclein has been demonstrated in a variety of experimental models and may be involved in disease progression during the course of human synucleinopathies. The aim of this study was to assess the role that neuronal injury or, vice versa, cell integrity could have in facilitating interneuronal α-synuclein transfer and consequent protein spreading in a...
متن کاملNeuronal activities related to thermoregulation.
The hypothalamic thermoregulatory center was regarded as a black box some 20 years ago. Subsequent microelectrode exploration revealed the existence of two kinds of thermosensitive neurons in this area. Discharges of these neurons are now recorded not only from anesthetized animals but also from tissue explants, tissue slices, and unanesthetized animals as well. Neuronal responses produced by s...
متن کاملAn Importin Code in neuronal transport from synapse-to-nucleus?
The principle cells of the brainneuronsexpress more genes than any other cell type. As many rudimentary processes of the brain, such as long-lasting changes in synaptic efficacy, involve alterations to the expression of genes, the characterisation of proteins and processes that influence transcription is a high priority in neuroscience. An emerging system capable of transducing signals that lik...
متن کاملDiminished neuronal activity increases neuron-neuron connectivity underlying silent synapse formation and the rapid conversion of silent to functional synapses.
Neuronal activity regulates the synaptic strength of neuronal networks. However, it is still unclear how diminished activity changes connection patterns in neuronal circuits. To address this issue, we analyzed neuronal connectivity and relevant mechanisms using hippocampal cultures in which developmental synaptogenesis had occurred. We show that diminution of network activity in mature neuronal...
