Postsynaptic activity of inhibitory neurons evokes hemodynamic fMRI responses

NeuroImage, 2021
Functional MRI responses are localized to the synaptic sites of evoked inhibitory neurons, but it is unknown whether, or by what mechanisms, these neurons initiate functional hyperemia.

Diffusion‐based size determination of solute particles: a method adapted for postsynaptic proteins

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We present a diffusion‐based approach for measuring the size of macromolecules and their complexes, and demonstrate its use on postsynaptic proteins. The method requires fluorescein‐labelled protein samples, a microfluidic device that maintains laminar flow for said samples, a microscope recording the emitted fluorescent signals, and an analytic ...

Feed-forward recruitment of electrical synapses enhances synchronous spiking in the mouse cerebellar cortex

eLife, 2020
In the cerebellar cortex, molecular layer interneurons use chemical and electrical synapses to form subnetworks that fine-tune the spiking output of the cerebellum.

A Novel Approach to Implementing Artificial Thalamic Neurons with Ferroelectric Transistors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Artificial neurons created using CMOS technology often require a large number of transistors and capacitors. This study introduces an artificial thalamic neuron that employs only five CMOS compatible ferroelectric transistors. The manufactured thalamic neuron demonstrates leaky integrate‐and‐fire‐or‐burst (LIFB) functionalities, featuring self ...

Spike-timing dependent plasticity in inhibitory circuits

Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2010
Inhibitory circuits in the brain rely on GABA-releasing interneurons. For long, inhibitory circuits were considered weakly plastic in the face of patterns of neuronal activity that trigger long-term changes in the synapses between excitatory principal ...

Stability of Negative Image Equilibria in Spike-Timing Dependent Plasticity

, 2003
We investigate the stability of negative image equilibria in mean synaptic weight dynamics governed by spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP). The neural architecture of the model is based on the electrosensory lateral line lobe (ELL) of mormyrid ...

Unbalance between Excitation and Inhibition in Phenylketonuria, a Genetic Metabolic Disease Associated with Autism [PDF]

, 2017
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is the most common genetic metabolic disease with a well-documented association with autism spectrum disorders. It is characterized by the deficiency of the phenylalanine hydroxylase activity, causing plasmatic hyperphenylalaninemia

Mimicking Synaptic Plasticity: Optoionic MoS2 Memory Powered by Biopolymer Hydrogels as a Dynamic Cations Reservoir

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Janus (MoS2) transistors functionalized with sodium alginate (SA) and poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF‐TrFE)] exhibit persistent photo‐induced ionic gating, driven by dynamic cation migration at the hybrid interface. This ionic mechanism enables finely tunable photoconductivity and emulates key synaptic plasticity behaviors ...
