Neuronal processes that underlie expression of kindled epileptiform events in the piriform cortex in vivo.
Recent studies with kindling and convulsant drug models of epilepsy suggest that the piriform (primary olfactory) cortex may be particularly susceptible to generation of epileptiform activity. The present study has examined the generation of interictal epileptiform events in the piriform cortex of kindled rats in vivo, taking advantage of special features of this system that facilitate physiolo...
متن کاملModulation of inhibitory synaptic potentials in the piriform cortex.
Modulation of inhibitory synaptic potentials in the piriform cortex. Intracellular recordings from pyramidal neurons in brain slice preparations of the piriform cortex were used to test results from a computational model about the effects of cholinergic agonists on inhibitory synaptic potentials induced by stimulation of afferent fibers in layer Ia and association/intrinsic fibers in layer Ib. ...
متن کاملConvergence in the Piriform Cortex
How are the responses to distinct chemical features integrated to form an olfactory perceptual object? In this issue of Neuron, Davison and Ehlers show that individual piriform cortex neurons receive convergent input from up to 10% of main olfactory bulb glomeruli and are activated by specific spatial patterns of coactive glomeruli.
متن کاملSustained and accelerating activity at two discrete sites generate epileptiform discharges in slices of piriform cortex.
When near-threshold electrical stimulation is used to evoke epileptiform discharges in brain slices, a latent period of up to 150 msec elapses before the discharge begins. During this period most neurons are silent, and abnormal electrical activity is difficult to detect with microelectrodes. A fundamental question about epileptiform activity concerns how synchronous discharges arise abruptly i...
متن کاملDuration of NMDA-dependent synaptic potentiation in piriform cortex in vivo is increased after epileptiform bursting.
Stimulation of afferent fibers with current pulse trains has been reported to induce long-term potentiation (LTP) in piriform cortex in vitro but not in vivo. LTP has been observed in vivo only when trains are paired with behavioral reinforcement and as a consequence of kindled epileptogenesis. This study was undertaken in the urethan-anesthetized rat to determine if the reported failures to ob...
