Disruption of Kcc2-dependent inhibition of olfactory bulb output neurons suggests its importance in odour discrimination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Synaptic inhibition in the olfactory bulb (OB), the first relay station of olfactory information, is believed to be important for odour discrimination.

Immunity and neuroinflammation in early stages of life and epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The immune system is crucial for the correct brain development, and recent findings also point toward central control of immune response. As the immune system is not fully developed at birth, the early years become an important window for infections and for the development of epilepsy.

BDNF/Trk/KCC2 pathway in nicotine withdrawal-induced hyperalgesia

open access: yesTranslational Neuroscience, 2015
Abstract Purpose: To investigate the effect of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)/tropomyosin receptor kinase (Trk) on potassium chloride cotransporter 2 (KCC2) in rats following nicotine withdrawal and the roles played by BDNF/Trk/KCC2 pathway in nicotine withdrawal-induced hyperalgesia.

KCC2 is required for the survival of mature neurons but not for their development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
ABSTRACTThe K+/Cl– co-transporter KCC2 (SLC12A5) allows mature neurons in the CNS to maintain low intracellular Cl−levels that are critical in mediating fast hyperpolarizing synaptic inhibition via type A γ-aminobutyric acid receptors GABAARs. In accordance with this, compromised KCC2 activity results in seizures but whether such deficits directly ...

M-Calpain Activation Facilitates Seizure Induced KCC2 Down Regulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Potassium chloride co-transporter 2 (KCC2), a major chloride transporter that maintains GABAA receptor inhibition in mature mammalian neurons, is down-regulated in the hippocampus during epileptogenesis.

Spinal cord dorsal horn sensory gate in preclinical models of chemotherapy-induced painful neuropathy and contact dermatitis chronic itch becomes less leaky with Kcc2 gene expression-enhancing treatments

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Low intraneuronal chloride in spinal cord dorsal horn (SCDH) pain relay neurons is of critical relevance for physiological transmission of primary sensory afferents because low intraneuronal chloride dictates GABA-ergic and glycin-ergic neurotransmission

Common Ribs of Inhibitory Synaptic Dysfunction in the Umbrella of Neurodevelopmental Disorders

open access: yes, 2018
The term neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD) is an umbrella term used to group together a heterogeneous class of disorders characterized by disruption in cognition, emotion, and behavior, early in the developmental timescale.

Interaction of neuron-specific K+-Cl− cotransporter, KCC2, with brain-type creatine kinase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
γ-Aminobutyric acid, a major inhibitory neurotransmitter within the adult central nervous system, is also known to be excitatory at early developmental stages due to the elevated intracellular Cl− concentration.

Linking autism risk genes to morphological and pharmaceutical screening by high‐content imaging: Future directions and opinion

open access: yesPsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Next‐generation sequencing has identified risk genes with large effect sizes for autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Although functional analysis of individual risk genes has progressed, the overall picture of ASD pathogenesis is unclear. Therefore, there is a need for morphological profiling of variants in these genes to fully comprehend their ...

Sex‐specific differences in mortality and neurocardiac interactions in the Kv1.1 knockout mouse model of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP)

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The Kcna1 knockout mouse model of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) exhibits sex‐specific differences in SUDEP risk. Female mice exhibit a lower SUDEP risk than males, despite similar seizure characteristics and interictal cardiac function across sexes.
