چکیده
•In slow-wave sleep, the Down state transition is an active process •Thalamic burst induces via cortical GABABR activation •Layer 1 NGFC interneurons relay thalamic signal to induce •Midline thalamus synchronizes slow oscillations Slow-wave sleep characterized by near-synchronous alternation of Up states and quiescent in neocortex. Although cortex itself can maintain these oscillations, full expression Up-Down requires intact thalamocortical circuits. Sensory input drive into state. Here we show that midline neurons terminate synchronously across areas. Combining local field potential, single-unit, patch-clamp recordings conjunction with optogenetic stimulation silencing mice vivo, report mediates layer neurogliaform inhibitory acting on GABAB receptors. These results strengthen evidence interactions are essential for mediated receptors, demonstrate transitions areas during natural sleep.

Differential GABAB-receptor-mediated effects in perisomatic- and dendrite-targeting parvalbumin interneurons.
Inhibitory parvalbumin-containing interneurons (PVIs) control neuronal discharge and support the generation of theta- and gamma-frequency oscillations in cortical networks. Fast GABAergic input onto PVIs is crucial for their synchronization and oscillatory entrainment, but the role of metabotropic GABA(B) receptors (GABA(B)Rs) in mediating slow presynaptic and postsynaptic inhibition remains un...
متن کاملNeocortical Somatostatin Neurons Reversibly Silence Excitatory Transmission via GABAb Receptors
BACKGROUND Understanding the dynamic range for excitatory transmission is a critical component of building a functional circuit diagram for the mammalian brain. Excitatory synaptic transmission is typically studied under optimized conditions, when background activity in the network is low. The range of synaptic function in the presence of inhibitory and excitatory activity within the neocortica...

Metabotropic glutamate receptor enhancement of spontaneous IPSCs in neocortical interneurons. J. Neurophysiol. 78: 2287-2295, 1997. Using neocortical layer I neurons as a model for GABAergic interneurons, we have studied gamma-aminobutyric acid-A (GABAA) receptor-mediated spontaneous inhibitory postsynaptic currents (IPSCs) and modulation by metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs). In the pre...
متن کاملNeocortical Interneurons: From Diversity, Strength
Interneurons in the neocortex of the brain are small, locally projecting inhibitory GABAergic cells with a broad array of anatomical and physiological properties. The diversity of interneurons is believed to be crucial for regulating myriad operations in the neocortex. Here, we describe current theories about how interneuron diversity may support distinct neocortical processes that underlie per...
متن کاملSegment-specific targeting via RNA interference mediates down-regulation of OPN expression in hepatocellular carcinoma cells.
Osteopontin (OPN) plays an important role in the metastasis and recurrence of tumors after resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, the down-regulation effect on OPN expression in HCC cells of RNA interference (RNAi) molecules designed to target different segments of OPN was investigated to identify a more effective site for OPN knockdown. Specific small interfering RNAs (siR...
