Metabotropic Regulation of Extrasynaptic GABAA Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013
A large body of work now shows the importance of GABAA receptor-mediated tonic inhibition in regulating CNS function. However, outside of pathological conditions, there is relatively little evidence that the magnitude of tonic inhibition is itself under ...

Cerebellar Cortex: Computation by Extrasynaptic Inhibition? [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2002
In the cerebellar cortex, inhibitory inputs to granule cells exhibit prominent tonic and spillover components resulting from the activation of extrasynaptic receptors.

Extrasynaptic δ-subunit containing GABAA receptors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2021
γ-Aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAARs) are GABA gated heteropentameric chloride channels responsible for the adult brain’s primary inhibition.

Modulating anxiety with extrasynaptic inhibition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Traumatic experiences and stress can lead to complex behavioral adaptations, including increased levels of anxiety and fear generalization. The neuronal mechanisms underlying such maladaptive behavioral changes are, however, poorly understood.

GLP-1 selectively enhances tonic GABAA receptor-mediated currents in mouse dentate gyrus granule cells of the ventral hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a metabolic hormone secreted by L-cells in the gut and it stimulates insulin secretion in the pancreatic islets by activating GLP-1 receptors (GLP-1Rs).

GABA Potency at GABAA Receptors Found in Synaptic and Extrasynaptic Zones

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2012
The potency of GABA is vitally important for its primary role in activating GABAA receptors and acting as an inhibitory neurotransmitter. Although numerous laboratories have presented information, directly or indirectly, on GABA potency, it is often ...

DMV extrasynaptic NMDA receptors regulate caloric intake in rats

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2021
Acute high-fat diet (aHFD) exposure induces a brief period of hyperphagia before caloric balance is restored. Previous studies have demonstrated that this period of regulation is associated with activation of synaptic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA ...

Mitigation of augmented extrasynaptic NMDAR signaling and apoptosis in cortico-striatal co-cultures from Huntington's disease mice

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2012
We recently reported evidence for disturbed synaptic versus extrasynaptic NMDAR transmission in the early pathogenesis of Huntington's disease (HD), a late-onset neurodegenerative disorder caused by CAG repeat expansion in the gene encoding huntingtin ...

Astrocytic actions on extrasynaptic neuronal currents [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
In the last few decades, knowledge about astrocytic functions has significantly increased. It was demonstrated that astrocytes are not passive elements of the central nervous system, but active partners of neurons.

Extrasynaptic vesicle recycling in mature hippocampal neurons [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2011
Fast neuronal signalling relies on highly regulated vesicle fusion and recycling at specialized presynaptic terminals. Recently, examples of non-classical neurotransmission have also been reported, where fusion of vesicles can occur at sites remote from ...
