Effect of standing posture on inhibitory postsynaptic potentials in gastrocnemius motoneurons [PDF]
Journal of Neurophysiology, 2018 This study examined the task dependence of sensory inputs on motoneuron excitability by comparing the inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP) evoked by stimulation of the sural nerve between a standing postural task (Free Standing) and a comparable voluntary isometric contraction performed in a supine position (Lying Supine).

Molecular Pain, 2016 Background After spinal cord injury, central neuropathic pain develops in the majority of spinal cord injury patients. Spinal hemisection in rats, which has been developed as an animal model of spinal cord injury in humans, results in hyperexcitation of ...

Membrane-derived phospholipids control synaptic neurotransmission and plasticity. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2015 Synaptic communication is a dynamic process that is key to the regulation of neuronal excitability and information processing in the brain. To date, however, the molecular signals controlling synaptic dynamics have been poorly understood.

The Mammalian Interaural Time Difference Detection Circuit Is Differentially Controlled by GABAB Receptors during Development [PDF]
, 2010 Throughout development GABAB receptors (GABABRs) are widely expressed in the mammalian brain. In mature auditory brainstem neurons, GABABRs are involved in the short-term regulation of the strength and dynamics of excitatory and inhibitory inputs, thus ...

Single dendrite-targeting interneurons generate branch-specific inhibition.
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014 Microcircuits composed of dendrite-targeting inhibitory interneurons and pyramidal cells are fundamental elements of cortical networks, however, the impact of individual interneurons on pyramidal dendrites is unclear.

Aberrant location of inhibitory synaptic marker proteins in the hippocampus of dystrophin-deficient mice [PDF]
, 2014 Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a neuromuscular disease that arises from mutations in the dystrophin-encoding gene. Apart from muscle pathology, cognitive impairment, primarily of developmental origin, is also a significant component of the disorder.

Brain injury impairs working memory and prefrontal circuit function
Frontiers in Neurology, 2015 More than 2.5 million Americans suffer a traumatic brain injury (TBI) each year. Even mild to moderate traumatic brain injury causes long-lasting neurological effects.

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021 The thalamic midline nucleus reuniens modulates hippocampal CA1 and subiculum function via dense projections to the stratum lacunosum-moleculare (SLM). Previously, anatomical data has shown that reuniens inputs in the SLM form synapses with dendrites of ...
