نقش سلول های گلیا در پاسخ سیناپسی پایه و شکل پذیری سیناپسی کوتاه مدت ناحیه CA1 هیپوکمپ

Background and purpose: Glial cells seem to play role in synaptic plasticity because they have the ability to release trophic factors and gliotransmitters and respond to neurotransmitters. They also play important role in synaptic space homeostasis. In this study, the role of hippocampal glial cells in baseline synaptic response and short term synaptic plasticity were investigated.  Material...

P19: Long-Term Potentiation

The term synaptic plasticity points to a series of persistent changes related to the activity of synapses. Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a reflection of synaptic plasticity that has an important role in learning and memory. LTP is a long-lasting increase of synaptic activity due to enhancement of excitatory synaptic transmission after a high-frequency train of electrical stimulations. Differe...

Glia and TRPM2 Channels in Plasticity of Central Nervous System and Alzheimer's Diseases.

Synaptic plasticity refers to the ability of neurons to strengthen or weaken synaptic efficacy in response to activity and is the basis for learning and memory. Glial cells communicate with neurons and in this way contribute in part to plasticity in the CNS and to the pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disease in which impaired synaptic plasticity is causally implicated....

P 138: Improving Neuroplasticity Through Neuroinflammation Pathways as a Therapeutic Goal in the Treatment of Autism

Neuroplasticity is the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections throughout life. Neuroplasticity allows the neurons in the brain to compensate injury and disease and to adjust their activities in response to new situations or to changes in their environment. At the other side, it is now well established that neuronal function is strongly influenced by both central ...

Effect of Clenbuterol Administration into the Basolateral Amygdala on Synaptic Plasticity in Dentate Gyrus Granule Cells in Male Rats

 Background and purpose: Neural circuits and neurotransmitter systems within the basolateral amygdala (BLA) play roles in forming emotional memory through communication with the hippocampus. Therefore, in this study, the role of these neural circuits on synaptic plasticity was investigated by agonist injection of beta-adrenergic receptors into the BLA. Materials and methods: In this experiment...

Perisynaptic glia discriminate patterns of motor nerve activity and influence plasticity at the neuromuscular junction.

In the nervous system, the induction of plasticity is coded by patterns of synaptic activity. Glial cells are now recognized as dynamic partners in a wide variety of brain functions, including the induction and modulation of various forms of synaptic plasticity. However, it appears that glial cells are usually activated by stereotyped, sustained neuronal activity, and little attention has been ...
