Investigating the Contribution of BK Channel in the Firing Activity of Cerebellar Purkinje Cells Using Computer Simulation

open access: yesمجله دانشکده پزشکی اصفهان, 2012
Background: BK channels are highly conductive calcium (Ca2+)-activated potassium (K+) channels. These channels are available on the membrane of many types of neurons including cerebellar Purkinje cells. Several experimental studies have used iberiotoxin,

Targeting the KCNC3‐Dependent Anterior Insular‐Lateral Orbitofrontal Cortex Glutamatergic Circuit Attenuates Post‐Traumatic Anxiety

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Frontal lobe traumatic brain injury is associated with hyperactivity of an insular–orbitofrontal circuit in both patients and mice. By combination of integrating functional imaging, cell‐type–specific circuit manipulation, single‐cell transcriptomics, and whole‐cell recordings, this work identifies the downregulation of the potassium channel KCNC3 in ...

Cerebellar Abnormalities in the Neuroimaging Spectrum of CLTC‐Related Disorder

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in CLTC, which encodes the clathrin heavy chain involved in vesicle‐mediated trafficking in neurons, cause a rare neurodevelopmental disorder associated with variable severity of global developmental delay and intellectual disability and structural brain abnormalities. Although corpus callosum and white matter anomalies are

Stellate cell computational modeling predicts signal filtering in the molecular layer circuit of cerebellum

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The functional properties of cerebellar stellate cells and the way they regulate molecular layer activity are still unclear. We have measured stellate cells electroresponsiveness and their activation by parallel fiber bursts.

Gephyrin Neurological Autoimmunity

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Gephyrin is a postsynaptic scaffold protein essential for inhibitory neurotransmission. Gephyrin‐immunoglobulin G (IgG) was reported, decades ago, in a single case of paraneoplastic stiff‐person‐like syndrome, but its broader clinical relevance remains unknown.

Zebrin II Expressing Purkinje Cell Phenotype—Related and—Unrelated Cerebellar Abnormalities in Ca˅2.1 Mutant, Rolling Mouse Nagoya

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2010
Rolling mouse Nagoya is an ataxic mutant mouse that carries a mutation in a gene encoding for the alpha 1A subunit of the voltage-gated P/Q-type Ca2+ channel (Ca˅2.1).

Cardiovascular Exercise Drives Neuroprotection in a Mouse Model of Spinocerebellar Ataxia 1 Via Rescue of Aberrant Splicing

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Spinocerebellar ataxia 1 (SCA1) is a fatal hereditary neurodegenerative disorder with no approved therapies, and gene‐targeting strategies have thus far failed in clinical trials. Exercise remains the only intervention shown to provide clinical benefit in patients with spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs), yet the underlying mechanisms remain ...

Cardiac morphological and morphometric analysis of Ardea alba

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ardea alba (Linnaeus, 1758) is a widely distributed heron species whose cardiovascular morphology remains poorly described. This study aimed to characterize the cardiac morphology and morphometry of adult A. alba. Ten specimens were analyzed using radiographic, morphometric, histological, scanning electron microscopy, and three‐dimensional ...

The sodium-potassium pump controls the intrinsic firing of the cerebellar Purkinje neuron. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
In vitro, cerebellar Purkinje cells can intrinsically fire action potentials in a repeating trimodal or bimodal pattern. The trimodal pattern consists of tonic spiking, bursting, and quiescence.
