On the excitation of action potentials by protons and its potential implications for cholinergic transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
One of the most conserved mechanisms for transmission of a nerve pulse across a synapse relies on acetylcholine. Ever since the Nobel-prize winning works of Dale and Loewi, it has been assumed that acetylcholine - subsequent to its action on a postsynaptic cell - is split into inactive by-products by acetylcholinesterase.

Neuromodulated Spike-Timing-Dependent Plasticity and Theory of Three-Factor Learning Rules

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2016
Classical Hebbian learning puts the emphasis on joint pre- and postsynaptic activity, but neglects the potential role of neuromodulators. Since neuromodulators convey information about novelty or reward, the influence of neuromodulatorson synaptic ...

Potentiation of Developing Synapses by Postsynaptic Release of Neurotrophin-4 [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 1997
The hypothesis that synaptic functions can be regulated by neurotrophins secreted from the postsynaptic cell was examined in Xenopus nerve-muscle cultures. Neuromuscular synapses formed on myocytes overexpressing neurotrophin-4 (M+ synapses) exhibited a higher level of spontaneous synaptic activity and enhanced evoked synaptic transmission as compared ...

Stimulus reconstruction based on postsynaptic potentials of leech interneurons [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2011
Most studies on the neuronal encoding of sensory stimuli have been performed based on spike responses. The classically considered neuronal response features like spike count, spike timing or ISIs rely on the all-or-nothing characteristic of spike responses.

Underlying mechanisms of long-term potentiation during the inhibition of the cannabinoid CB1 and GABAB receptors in the dentate gyrus of hippocampus

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2023
Background The release of various neurotransmitters and thereby the excitability of neuronal circuits are regulated by the endocannabinoid system in an activity-dependent manner. Hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) is augmented in cannabinoid type 1
