Acetylcholine (ACh) regulates network operation in the hippocampus by controlling excitation and inhibition in rat CA1 pyramidal neurons (PCs), the latter through gamma-aminobutyric acid type-A receptors (GABA A Rs). Although, the enhancing effects of ACh on GABA A Rs have been reported (Dominguez et al., 2014, 2015), its role in regulating tonic GABAA inhibition has not been explored in depth....
We have examined the development of synaptic transmission between interneurons and motoneurons in spinal cord cell cultures. Unitary excitatory synaptic currents and complex bursts of excitatory currents develop rapidly: EPSCs (excitatory postsynaptic currents) were detected in 100% of the motoneurons by the 4th day after plating. Inhibitory synaptic currents develop more slowly: IPSCs (inhibit...
Dendritic voltage-dependent currents and inhibition modulate the information flow between synaptic and decision areas. Subthreshold and spike currents are sequentially recruited by synaptic potentials in the apical shaft of pyramidal cells, which may also decide cell output. We studied the global role of proximal apical recruited currents on cell output in vitro and in the anesthetized rat afte...
NMDA receptor (NMDAR)-mediated increases in AMPA receptor (AMPAR) currents are associated with long-term synaptic potentiation (LTP). Here, we provide evidence that similar changes occur in response to normal increases in sensory stimulation during development. Experiments discriminated between eye opening-induced and age-dependent changes in synaptic currents. At 6 hr after eye opening (AEO), ...
The biological mechanisms of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are largely unknown in spite of extensive research. ASD is characterized by altered function of multiple brain areas including the temporal cortex and by an increased synaptic excitation:inhibition ratio. While numerous studies searched for evidence of increased excitation in ASD, fewer have investigated the possibility of reduced in...
Intercellular adhesion molecule-5 (ICAM-5) is a dendrite-specific adhesion molecule, which functions in both the immune and nervous systems. ICAM-5 is the only negative regulator that has been identified for maturation of dendritic spines so far. Shedding of the ICAM-5 ectodomain promotes spine maturation and enhances synaptic activity. However, the mechanism by which ICAM-5 regulates spine dev...
DYT1 dystonia is an inherited movement disorder caused by mutations in DYT1 (TOR1A), which codes for torsinA. Most of the patients have a trinucleotide deletion (ΔGAG) corresponding to a glutamic acid in the C-terminal region (torsinA(ΔE)). Dyt1 ΔGAG heterozygous knock-in (KI) mice, which mimic ΔGAG mutation in the endogenous gene, exhibit motor deficits and deceased frequency of spontaneous ex...
Nerve injury-induced expression of the spinal calcium channel alpha-2-delta-1 subunit (Cavalpha2delta1) has been shown to mediate behavioral hypersensitivity through a yet identified mechanism. We examined if this neuroplasticity modulates behavioral hypersensitivity by regulating spinal glutamatergic neurotransmission in injury-free transgenic mice overexpressing the Cavalpha2delta1 proteins i...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and the most frequent cause of progressive cognitive decline in the elderly population. To date, there is still no effective treatment for AD, requiring more underlying mechanisms. In the present study, we investigated the effects of Aβ42 on the inhibitory synaptic transmission in the cultured hippocampal neurons, and explored ...
Whole cell patch-clamp recordings were obtained from supraoptic neurons to investigate the effects of histamine on excitatory postsynaptic currents evoked by electrical stimulation of areas around the posterior supraoptic nucleus. When cells were voltage-clamped at -70 mV, evoked excitatory postsynaptic currents had amplitudes of 88.4 +/- 9.6 pA and durations of 41.1 +/- 3.0 ms (mean +/- SE; n ...
