Cortical Stimulation Induces Excitatory Postsynaptic Potentials of Inferior Colliculus Neurons in a Frequency-Specific Manner [PDF]
Corticofugal modulation of auditory responses in subcortical nuclei has been extensively studied whereas corticofugal synaptic transmission must still be characterized.

Hyperpolarization following activation of K+ channels by excitatory postsynaptic potentials [PDF]
We have postulated that an excitatory postsynaptic potential (e.p.s.p.) may open voltage-sensitive K+ ('M') channels, in an appropriate depolarizing range, and that this could alter the e.p.s.p. waveform. Consequently, the fast e.p.s.p. in neurones of sympathetic ganglia, elicited by a nicotinic action of acetylcholine (ACh), could be followed by a ...

A glibenclamide-sensitive TRPM4-mediated component of CA1 excitatory postsynaptic potentials appears in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis [PDF]
The transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4) channel contributes to disease severity in the murine experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model of multiple sclerosis and to neuronal cell death in models of excitotoxicity and traumatic ...

The inhibition of evoked excitatory postsynaptic potentials produced by ammonium chloride in rat hippocampal CA1 neurons [PDF]
The depression of evoked fast excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) following superfusion with various concentrations (3 μM-5 mM) of ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) were investigated in rat hippocampal CA1 neurons.

Excitatory postsynaptic potentials in rat neocortical neurons in vitro. III. Effects of a quinoxalinedione non-NMDA receptor antagonist [PDF]
1. Intracellular microelectrodes were used to obtain recordings from neurons in layer II/III of rat frontal cortex. A bipolar electrode positioned in layer IV of the neocortex was used to evoke postsynaptic potentials.

Active summation of excitatory postsynaptic potentials in hippocampal CA3 pyramidal neurons [PDF]
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 ...

Recurrent excitatory postsynaptic potentials induced by synchronized fast cortical oscillations [PDF]
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.

Calcium dynamics in single spines during coincident pre- and postsynaptic activity depend on relative timing of back-propagating action potentials and subthreshold excitatory postsynaptic potentials [PDF]
We compared the transient increase of Ca2+ in single spines on basal dendrites of rat neocortical layer 5 pyramidal neurons evoked by subthreshold excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) and back-propagating action potentials (APs) by using calcium ...

Purinergic fast excitatory postsynaptic potentials in myenteric neurons of guinea pig: Distribution and pharmacology [PDF]
BACKGROUND & AIMS Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) acting at P2 receptors mediates some fast excitatory postsynaptic potentials (fEPSPs) in myenteric neurons of guinea pig ileum. The present studies investigate the distribution of purinergic fEPSPs along the
