The generation of antiphase oscillations and synchrony by a rebound-based vertebrate central pattern generator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Many neural circuits are capable of generating multiple stereotyped outputs after different sensory inputs or neuromodulation.We have previously identified the central pattern generator (CPG) forXenopustadpole swimming that involves antiphase ...

Electrophysiological evidence of increased glycine receptor-mediated phasic and tonic inhibition by blockade of glycine transporters in spinal superficial dorsal horn neurons of adult mice

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2017
To understand the synaptic and/or extrasynaptic mechanisms underlying pain relief by blockade of glycine transporter subtypes GlyT1 and GlyT2, whole-cell recordings were made from dorsal horn neurons in spinal slices from adult mice, and the effects of ...

The Interplay Between Tonic and Phasic Pupil Activity and Cognitive Flexibility and Stability. [PDF]

open access: yesPsychophysiology
Previous research has shown that while larger phasic pupillary activity indexes lower switch costs and better performance on a Stroop task, greater tonic pupillary activity indexes greater exploration.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Superior frontal regions reflect the dynamics of task engagement and theta band-related control processes in time-on task effects

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Impairment of cognitive performance is often observed in time-on tasks. Theoretical considerations suggest that especially prefrontal cortex cognitive control functions is affected by time-on-task effects, but the role of effort/task engagement is not ...

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

The serine hydrolase ABHD6 controls survival and thermally induced seizures in a mouse model of Dravet syndrome

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2023
Evidence suggests that inhibition of α/β hydrolase-domain containing 6 (ABHD6) reduces seizures; however, the molecular mechanism of this therapeutic response remains unknown.

Galanin Inhibits Continuous and Phasic Firing in Rat Hypothalamic Magnocellular Neurosecretory Cells [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 1997
The effects of galanin (GAL) on magnocellular neurosecretory cells (MNCs) were examined during microelectrode recordings from supraoptic neurons in superfused hypothalamic explants. Application of the full-length peptide (GAL1-29) or of the N-terminal fragment GAL1-16 produced reversible membrane hyperpolarization with an IC50 near 10 nM. These effects

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Tonic and phasic nitric oxide signals in hippocampal long-term potentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Nitric oxide ( NO) participates in long-term potentiation (LTP) and other forms of synaptic plasticity in many different brain areas but where it comes from and how it acts remain controversial.
