Activation of 5-HT2A receptors upregulates the function of the neuronal K-Cl cotransporter KCC2

open access: yes, 2013
International audienceIn healthy adults, activation of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) A and glycine receptors inhibits neurons as a result of low intracellular chloride concentration ([Cl-] i), which is maintained by the potassium chloride cotransporter KCC2.

HIV and opiates dysregulate K+- Cl− cotransporter 2 (KCC2) to cause GABAergic dysfunction in primary human neurons and Tat-transgenic mice

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2020
Approximately half of people infected with HIV (PWH) exhibit HIV-associated neuropathology (neuroHIV), even when receiving combined antiretroviral therapy. Opiate use is widespread in PWH and exacerbates neuroHIV.

WNK1/HSN2 isoform and the regulation of KCC2 activity [PDF]

open access: yesRare Diseases, 2013
Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 2 is a rare autosomal recessive pathology presenting with early onset peripheral sensory defects. It arises from mutations affecting a specific isoform of the WNK1 kinase (with-no-lysine protein kinase 1) termed WNK1/HSN2. The role of WNK1 in the nervous system is not well understood. In our recent paper,

KCC2 drives chloride microdomain formation in dendritic blebbing

open access: yesCell Reports, 2022
Intracellular chloride ion concentration ([Cl-]i) homeostasis is critical for excitatory/inhibitory balance and volume regulation in neurons. We quantitatively map spatiotemporal dendritic [Cl-]i dynamics during N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) excitotoxicity to determine how Cl- changes contribute to localized dendritic swelling (blebbing) in stroke-like ...

Isolation and Characterization of Multi-Protein Complexes Enriched in the K-Cl Co-transporter 2 From Brain Plasma Membranes

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020
Kcc2 plays a critical role in determining the efficacy of synaptic inhibition, however, the cellular mechanisms neurons use to regulate its membrane trafficking, stability and activity are ill-defined.

Compound heterozygous SLC12A5 variants expand the molecular and functional spectrum of KCC2‐developmental and epileptic encephalopathy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Overview of the multimodal experimental approach integrating clinical, genetic, in silico, and in vitro investigations. Clinical: Representative EEG recording setup and ictal traces from affected patients. Genetic: Pedigrees for Families A and B highlighting the inheritance of the four identified SLC12A5 variants (A1, A2, B1, B2).

Layer-specific changes of KCC2 and NKCC1 in the mouse dentate gyrus after entorhinal denervation

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023
The cation-chloride cotransporters KCC2 and NKCC1 regulate the intracellular Cl− concentration and cell volume of neurons and/or glia. The Cl− extruder KCC2 is expressed at higher levels than the Cl− transporter NKCC1 in mature compared to immature ...

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.
