Molecular investigation of ergot alkaloid ergotamine's modulatory effects on glycine receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal
The relationship between oxidative stress and glycine receptors is complex, involving multiple mechanisms through which reactive oxygen species can modify glycine receptor function. Understanding these interactions is essential for developing therapeutic

GABAB Receptors Augment TRPC3-Mediated Slow Excitatory Postsynaptic Current to Regulate Cerebellar Purkinje Neuron Response to Type-1 Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Activation

open access: yesCells, 2018
During strong parallel fiber stimulation, glutamate released at parallel fiber-Purkinje cell synapses activates type-1 metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR1) to trigger a slow excitatory postsynaptic current (sEPSC) in cerebellar Purkinje neurons.

Electrolyte Gated Oxide Pseudodiode for Inhibitory Synapse Applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Recently, synaptic electronics are attracting increasing attention in neuromorphic engineering. Here, inhibitory synapses are proposed based on nanogranular phosphorous silicate glass gated indium tin oxide transistors operated in pseudodiode mode ...

The energy demand of fast neuronal network oscillations: insights from brain slice preparations

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2012
Fast neuronal network oscillations in the gamma range (30-100 Hz) in the cerebral cortex have been implicated in higher cognitive functions such as sensual perception, working memory, and, perhaps, consciousness. However, little is known about the energy

Inhibitory Postsynaptic Potentials Carry Synchronized Frequency Information in Active Cortical Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
SummaryTemporal precision in spike timing is important in cortical function, interactions, and plasticity. We found that, during periods of recurrent network activity (UP states), cortical pyramidal cells in vivo and in vitro receive strong barrages of ...

Inhibitory or excitatory? Optogenetic interrogation of the functional roles of GABAergic interneurons in epileptogenesis

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2017
Alteration in the excitatory/inhibitory neuronal balance is believed to be the underlying mechanism of epileptogenesis. Based on this theory, GABAergic interneurons are regarded as the primary inhibitory neurons, whose failure of action permits ...

Essential Functions of the Transcription Factor Npas4 in Neural Circuit Development, Plasticity, and Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Signaling from the synapse to nucleus is mediated by the integration and propagation of both membrane potential changes (postsynaptic potentials) and intracellular second messenger cascades.

Progressive Parkinsonism in PPP2R5D‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT PPP2R5D‐related neurodevelopmental disorder (Houge–Janssens syndrome type 1) is a rare autosomal dominant condition characterized by macrocephaly, intellectual disability, and epilepsy. Progressive parkinsonism is an emerging adult phenotype that neurologists should be aware of since timely genetic diagnosis opens the door to disease‐modifying

Synaptic integration mechanisms. Theoretical and experimental investigation of temporal postsynaptic interactions between excitatory and inhibitory inputs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
The effect of temporal activation of two closely adjacent synaptic inputs upon the postsynaptic output (voltage amplitude and time integral) is analyzed theoretically and experimentally. It is shown that (a) under certain conditions, maximal nonlinearity

Intermediate Resistive State in Wafer‐Scale Vertical MoS2 Memristors Through Lateral Silver Filament Growth for Artificial Synapse Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In MOCVD MoS2 memristors, a current compliance‐regulated Ag filament mechanism is revealed. The filament ruptures spontaneously during volatile switching, while subsequent growth proceeds vertically through the MoS2 layers and then laterally along the van der Waals gaps during nonvolatile switching.
