Excitatory GABAergic Effects in Striatal Projection Neurons [PDF]
The ability of synaptically released GABA to facilitate action potential generation in striatal projection neurons was studied in brain slices using current-clamp, gramicidin-perforated whole cell recordings. Evoked GABAergic postsynaptic potentials (PSPs) were pharmacologically isolated with ionotropic glutamate receptor ...

The dorsal raphe nucleus (DR) and median raphe nucleus (MR) contain populations of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons that regulate diverse behavioral functions. However, their whole-brain input-output circuits remain incompletely elucidated.

Cholinergic Neurons Excite Cortically Projecting Basal Forebrain GABAergic Neurons [PDF]
The basal forebrain (BF) plays an important role in the control of cortical activation and attention. Understanding the modulation of BF neuronal activity is a prerequisite to treat disorders of cortical activation involving BF dysfunction, such as Alzheimer's disease. Here we reveal the interaction between cholinergic neurons and cortically projecting

A Pivotal Genetic Program Controlled by Thyroid Hormone during the Maturation of GABAergic Neurons
Summary: Mammalian brain development critically depends on proper thyroid hormone signaling, via the TRα1 nuclear receptor. The downstream mechanisms by which TRα1 impacts brain development are currently unknown. In order to investigate these mechanisms,

The impact of GABAergic transmission on neuronal excitability depends on the Cl--gradient across membranes. However, the Cl--fluxes through GABAA receptors alter the intracellular Cl- concentration ([Cl-]i) and in turn attenuate GABAergic responses, a ...

Dynamic GABAergic afferent modulation of AgRP neurons [PDF]
Agouti-related peptide (AgRP) neurons of the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARC) promote homeostatic feeding at times of caloric insufficiency, yet they are rapidly suppressed by food-related sensory cues before ingestion. Here we identify a highly selective inhibitory afferent to AgRP neurons that serves as a neural determinant of this rapid ...

Acidosis-Induced Dysfunction of Cortical GABAergic Neurons through Astrocyte-Related Excitotoxicity.
BackgroundAcidosis impairs cognitions and behaviors presumably by acidification-induced changes in neuronal metabolism. Cortical GABAergic neurons are vulnerable to pathological factors and their injury leads to brain dysfunction.

Genetic Single Neuron Anatomy Reveals Fine Granularity of Cortical Axo-Axonic Cells
Summary: Parsing diverse nerve cells into biological types is necessary for understanding neural circuit organization. Morphology is an intuitive criterion for neuronal classification and a proxy of connectivity, but morphological diversity and ...
