Developmental Regulation of KCC2 Phosphorylation Has Long-Term Impacts on Cognitive Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019
GABAA receptor-mediated currents shift from excitatory to inhibitory during postnatal brain development in rodents. A postnatal increase in KCC2 protein expression is considered to be the sole mechanism controlling the developmental onset of ...

Disruption of KCC2 in Parvalbumin-Positive Interneurons Is Associated With a Decreased Seizure Threshold and a Progressive Loss of Parvalbumin-Positive Interneurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
GABAA receptors are ligand-gated ion channels, which are predominantly permeable for chloride. The neuronal K-Cl cotransporter KCC2 lowers the intraneuronal chloride concentration and thus plays an important role for GABA signaling. KCC2 loss-of-function

Enhanced synaptic activity and epileptiform events in the embryonic Kcc2 deficient hippocampus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2011
The neuronal potassium-chloride co-transporter Kcc2 is thought to play an important role in the post natal excitatory to inhibitory switch of GABA actions in the rodent hippocampus.

A noninvasive optical approach for assessing chloride extrusion activity of the K-Cl cotransporter KCC2 in neuronal cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Cation-chloride cotransporters (CCCs) are indispensable for maintaining chloride homeostasis in multiple cell types, but K-Cl cotransporter KCC2 is the only CCC member with an exclusively neuronal expression in mammals.

KCC2 escape from neuropathic pain [PDF]

open access: yesScience-Business eXchange, 2013
Researchers from Laval University have described an activator of the co-transporter KCC2 and shown its analgesic effect in mice. The group is developing next-generation compounds with better pharmacological properties.

Influx of Calcium through L-type Calcium Channels in Early Postnatal Regulation of Chloride Transporters in the Rat Hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
During the early postnatal period, GABAB receptor activation facilitates L-type calcium current in rat hippocampus. One developmental process that L-type current may regulate is the change in expression of the K+Cl− co-transporter (KCC2) and N+K+2Cl− co ...

Reciprocal Regulation of KCC2 Trafficking and Synaptic Activity [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
The main inhibitory neurotransmitter receptors in the adult central nervous system (CNS) are type A γ-aminobutyric acid receptors (GABAARs) and glycine receptors (GlyRs). Synaptic responses mediated by GlyR and GABAAR display a hyperpolarizing shift during development.

Diminished KCC2 confounds synapse specificity of LTP during senescence [PDF]

open access: yesNature Neuroscience, 2016
The synapse specificity of long-term potentiation (LTP) ensures that no interference arises from inputs irrelevant to the memory to be encoded. In hippocampi of aged (21-28 months) mice, LTP was relayed to unstimulated synapses, blemishing its synapse specificity.

KCC2-Mediated Cl− Extrusion Modulates Spontaneous Hippocampal Network Events in Perinatal Rats and Mice

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: It is generally thought that hippocampal neurons of perinatal rats and mice lack transport-functional K-Cl cotransporter KCC2, and that Cl− regulation is dominated by Cl− uptake via the Na-K-2Cl cotransporter NKCC1. Here, we demonstrate a robust

Staurosporine and NEM mainly impair WNK-SPAK/OSR1 mediated phosphorylation of KCC2 and NKCC1.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The pivotal role of KCC2 and NKCC1 in development and maintenance of fast inhibitory neurotransmission and their implication in severe human diseases arouse interest in posttranscriptional regulatory mechanisms such as (de)phosphorylation. Staurosporine (
