GABAergic Neuron Specification in the Spinal Cord, the Cerebellum, and the Cochlear Nucleus

open access: yesJournal of Neural Transplantation and Plasticity, 2012
In the nervous system, there are a wide variety of neuronal cell types that have morphologically, physiologically, and histochemically different characteristics.

The enigmatic function of chandelier cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2010
Chandelier (or axo-axonic) cells are one of the most distinctive GABAergic interneurons in the brain. Their exquisite target specificity for the axon initial segment of pyramidal neurons, together with their GABAergic nature, long suggested the ...

GABAergic mechanism of propofol toxicity in immature neurons [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurosurgical Anesthesiology, 2006
Certain anesthetics exhibit neurotoxicity in the brains of immature but not mature animals. Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the adult brain, is excitatory on immature neurons via its action at the GABAA receptor, due to a reversed transmembrane chloride gradient.

GABAergic Neuron Deficit As An Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy Mechanism: The Role Of BRD2 Haploinsufficiency In Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) syndromes represent about 30% of all epilepsies. They have strong, but elusive, genetic components and sex-specific seizure expression.

The Relationship Between Inflammation and Central Nervous System in Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune demyelination disease that is seen especially in the young population and has a progressive course, causing motor, sensory, and cognitive deficits. In the literature, the pathogenesis of MS disease and the interconnection between the immune and central nervous system in the disease have not been fully ...

Dopamine D2 Receptor Activity Modulates Akt Signaling and Alters GABAergic Neuron Development and Motor Behavior in Zebrafish Larvae

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2011
An imbalance in dopamine-mediated neurotransmission is a hallmark physiological feature of neuropsychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia. Recent evidence demonstrates that dopamine D2 receptors, which are the main target of antipsychotics, modulate ...

Discovery and Targeted Proteomic Studies Reveal Striatal Markers Validated for Huntington's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Clinical trials for Huntington's disease (HD) enrolling persons before clinical motor diagnosis (CMD) lack validated biomarkers. This study aimed to conduct an unbiased discovery analysis and a targeted examination of proteomic biomarkers scrutinized by clinical validation. Methods Cerebrospinal fluid was obtained from PREDICT‐HD and

Integrins Have Cell-Type-Specific Roles in the Development of Motor Neuron Connectivity

open access: yesJournal of Developmental Biology, 2019
Formation of the nervous system requires a complex series of events including proper extension and guidance of neuronal axons and dendrites. Here we investigate the requirement for integrins, a class of transmembrane cell adhesion receptors, in ...

Deletion of FGF9 in GABAergic neurons causes epilepsy

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Fibroblast growth factor 9 (FGF9) has long been assumed to modulate multiple biological processes, yet very little is known about the impact of FGF9 on neurodevelopment.

Regulation of Substantia Nigra Pars Reticulata GABAergic Neuron Activity by H2O2 via Flufenamic Acid-Sensitive Channels and KATP Channels

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2011
Substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) GABAergic neurons are key output neurons of the basal ganglia. Given the role of these neurons in motor control, it is important to understand factors that regulate their firing rate and pattern.
