Electrical Synapses in Basal Ganglia

open access: yesReviews in the Neurosciences, 2007
The basal ganglia (BG) provide a major integrative system of the forebrain involved in the organization of goal-directed behaviour. Pathological alteration of BG function leads to major motor and cognitive impairments such as observed in Parkinson's disease.

State-dependent modulation of gap junction signaling by the persistent sodium current

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2012
Thalamic neurons fluctuate between two states: a hyperpolarized state associated with burst firing and sleep spindles, and a depolarized state associated with tonic firing and rapid, reliable information transmission between the sensory periphery and ...

Strategic Positioning of Connexin36 Gap Junctions Across Human Retinal Ganglion Cell Dendritic Arbors

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Connexin36 (Cx36) subunits form gap junctions (GJ) between neurons throughout the central nervous system. Such GJs of the mammalian retina serve the transmission, averaging and correlation of signals prior to conveying visual information to the brain ...

An organic nanoparticle transistor behaving as a biological synapse

open access: yes, 2009
Molecule-based devices are envisioned to complement silicon devices by providing new functions or already existing functions at a simpler process level and at a lower cost by virtue of their self-organization capabilities. Moreover, they are not bound to

Electrical Synapses in the Thalamic Reticular Nucleus [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2002
Neurons of the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN) provide inhibitory input to thalamic relay cells and generate synchronized activity during sleep and seizures. It is widely assumed that TRN cells interact only via chemical synaptic connections. However, we show that many neighboring pairs of TRN neurons in rats and mice are electrically coupled.
