Synaptic modulation of calcium-dependent potassium conductance in myenteric neurones in the guinea-pig.
1. Ganglion cells of the myentric plexus of the guinea-pig small intestine were studied with intracellular recording methods. 2. Electrical stimulation of the interganglionic connectives elicited slow synaptic excitation (slow e.p.s.p.) that was associated with an increase in the input resistance of the cell. The slow e.p.s.p.s continued for several seconds after termination of stimulation, and...
متن کاملKinase-dependent regulation of the intermediate conductance, calcium-dependent potassium channel, hIK1.
We determined the effect of nucleotides and protein kinase A (PKA) on the Ca(2+)-dependent gating of the cloned intermediate conductance, Ca(2+)-dependent K(+) channel, hIK1. In Xenopus oocytes, during two-electrode voltage-clamp, forskolin plus isobutylmethylxanthine induced a Ca(2+)-dependent increase in hIK1 activity. In excised inside-out patches, addition of ATP induced a Ca(2+)-dependent ...
متن کاملDevelopmental mapping of small-conductance calcium-activated potassium channel expression in the rat nervous system
Early electrical activity and calcium influx regulate crucial aspects of neuronal development. Small-conductance calcium-activated potassium (SK) channels regulate action potential firing and shape calcium influx through feedback regulation in mature neurons. These functions, observed in the adult nervous system, make them ideal candidates to regulate activity- and calcium-dependent processes i...
متن کاملDual function during development of rat sympathetic neurones in culture.
Many sympathetic principal neurones of the superior cervical ganglion of the newborn rat are known to be plastic with respect to the choice between norepinephrine (NE) and acetylcholine (ACh) as transmitter; when the neurones are dissociated and placed in culture, a majority of them can be shifted from an initial, immature, adrenergic state to a cholinergic state by co-culture with a variety of...
متن کاملVoltage- and activity-dependent chloride conductance controls the resting status of the intact rat sympathetic neuron.
Remarkable activity dependence was uncovered in the chloride conductance that operates in the subthreshold region of membrane potential, by using the two-microelectrode voltage-clamp technique in the mature and intact rat sympathetic neuron. Both direct and synaptic neuron tetanization (15 Hz, 10-s duration to saturate the response) resulted in a long-lasting (not less than 15 min) increase of ...
