Characteristics of long-duration inhibitory postsynaptic potentials in rat neocortical neuronsin vitro [PDF]
, 1987 1. The characteristics of long-duration inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (l-IPSPs) which are evoked in rat frontal neocortical neurons by local electrical stimulation were investigated with intracellular recordings from anin vitro slice preparation.

Heterosynaptic Regulation of α2A-Adrenoceptors on Glutamate/GABA Release in the Prefrontal Cortex of Rats [PDF]
BiomedicinesBackground/Objectives: Norepinephrine (NE) plays a crucial role in modulating cognitive processes via α2A-adrenoceptors (α2A-ARs) within the prefrontal cortex (PFC), an essential brain region responsible for higher cognitive functions.

Imperfect space clamp permits electrotonic interactions between inhibitory and excitatory synaptic conductances, distorting voltage clamp recordings. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The voltage clamp technique is frequently used to examine the strength and composition of synaptic input to neurons. Even accounting for imperfect voltage control of the entire cell membrane ("space clamp"), it is often assumed that currents measured at ...

Postsynaptic activity of inhibitory neurons evokes hemodynamic fMRI responses
NeuroImage, 2021 Functional MRI responses are localized to the synaptic sites of evoked inhibitory neurons, but it is unknown whether, or by what mechanisms, these neurons initiate functional hyperemia.

Visualization by high resolution immunoelectron microscopy of the transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 at inhibitory synapses of the mouse dentate gyrus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 We have recently shown that the transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1), a non-selective cation channel in the peripheral and central nervous system, is localized at postsynaptic sites of the excitatory perforant path synapses in the ...

Neuromodulation of Chemical Synaptic Transmission Driven by THz Photons
Research, 2022 Postsynaptic currents of chemical synapse are modulated by multitudinous neurotransmitters, such as acetylcholine, dopamine, glutamate, and γ-aminobutyric acid, many of which have been used in the treatment of neurological diseases.
