Synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus of an APP/PS1 mouse model of Alzheimer's disease is impaired in old but not young mice [PDF]

, 2010
Background Alzheimer disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder for which there is no cure. We have investigated synaptic plasticity in area CA1 in a novel AD mouse model (APPPS1-21) which expresses the Swedish mutation of APP and the L166P mutation of

Unveiling the Synaptic Function and Structure Using Paired Recordings From Synaptically Coupled Neurons

Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2020
Synaptic transmission between neurons is the basic mechanism for information processing in cortical microcircuits. To date, paired recording from synaptically coupled neurons is the most widely used method which allows a detailed functional ...

Neuromuscular synaptic transmission in aged ganglioside-deficient mice [PDF]

, 2011
Gangliosides are sialylated glycosphingolipids that are present in high density on neuronal membranes, especially at synapses, where they are assumed to play functional or modulating roles.

Chronic Ethanol Exposure Enhances Facial Stimulation-Evoked Mossy Fiber–Granule Cell Synaptic Transmission via GluN2A Receptors in the Mouse Cerebellar Cortex

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2021
Sensory information is transferred to the cerebellar cortex via the mossy fiber–granule cell (MF–GC) pathway, which participates in motor coordination and motor learning.

MSK1 regulates homeostatic and experience-dependent synaptic plasticity [PDF]

, 2012
The ability of neurons to modulate synaptic strength underpins synaptic plasticity, learning and memory, and adaptation to sensory experience. Despite the importance of synaptic adaptation in directing, reinforcing, and revising the behavioral response ...

Reprogramming glioblastoma multiforme cells into neurons by protein kinase inhibitors

Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2018
Background Reprogramming of cancers into normal-like tissues is an innovative strategy for cancer treatment. Recent reports demonstrate that defined factors can reprogram cancer cells into pluripotent stem cells. Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most

Differential synaptic mechanism underlying the neuronal modulation of prefrontal cortex, amygdala, and hippocampus in response to chronic postsurgical pain with or without cognitive deficits in rats

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Chronic Postsurgical Pain (CPSP) is well recognized to impair cognition, particularly memory. Mounting evidence suggests anatomic and mechanistic overlap between pain and cognition on several levels.

Neuromuscular synaptic function in mice lacking major subsets of gangliosides [PDF]

, 2008
Gangliosides are a family of sialylated glycosphingolipids enriched in the outer leaflet of neuronal membranes, in particular at synapses. Therefore, they have been hypothesized to play a functional role in synaptic transmission.

Conversion of Fibroblasts to Neural Cells by p53 Depletion

Cell Reports, 2014
Conversion from fibroblasts to neurons has recently been successfully induced. However, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we find that depletion of p53 alone converts fibroblasts into all three major neural lineages.

Noradrenaline depresses facial stimulation-evoked cerebellar MLI-PC synaptic transmission via α2-AR/PKA signaling cascade in vivo in mice

Scientific Reports, 2023
The noradrenergic fibers of the locus coeruleus, together with mossy fibers and climbing fibers, comprise the three types of cerebellar afferents that modulate the cerebellar neuronal circuit.
