Recurrent excitatory postsynaptic potentials induced by synchronized fast cortical oscillations [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1997 Gamma frequency (about 20–70 Hz) oscillations occur during novel sensory stimulation, with tight synchrony over distances of at least 7 mm. Synchronization in the visual system has been proposed to reflect coactivation of different parts of the visual field by a single spatially extended object.

A Simple Mathematical Model of Second-Messenger Mediated Slow Excitatory Postsynaptic Potentials
Journal of Computational Neuroscience, 2000 We have developed a novel and simple mathematical model of a slow excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) based on an abstraction of the processes of activation, inactivation, and summation of a cAMP, protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent second-messenger cascade.

Active summation of excitatory postsynaptic potentials in hippocampal CA3 pyramidal neurons [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1998 The manner in which the thousands of synaptic inputs received by a pyramidal neuron are summed is critical both to our understanding of the computations that may be performed by single neurons and of the codes used by neurons to transmit information. Recent work on pyramidal cell dendrites has shown that subthreshold synaptic inputs are modulated by ...

γ-Hydroxybutyrate inhibits excitatory postsynaptic potentials in rat hippocampal slices
European Journal of Pharmacology, 1999 Gamma-Hydroxybutyrate (GHB) has been shown to mimic different central actions of ethanol, to suppress alcohol withdrawal syndrome, and to reduce alcohol consumption both in rats and in humans. The aim of the present study was to determine if GHB shared with alcohol the ability to inhibit glutamate action at both NMDA and AMPA/kainate receptors.

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023 IntroductionN-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) is one of the main receptor of the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate in the brain, which is the key determinant of the excitatory/inhibitory balance of neural network.

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, 2023 Binge‐like exposure to ethanol during the brain growth spurt triggers apoptotic neurodegeneration in multiple brain regions, including the retrosplenial cortex, a brain region that is part of the hippocampal‐diencephalic‐cingulate memory network. This is

Membrane-derived phospholipids control synaptic neurotransmission and plasticity. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2015 Synaptic communication is a dynamic process that is key to the regulation of neuronal excitability and information processing in the brain. To date, however, the molecular signals controlling synaptic dynamics have been poorly understood.
