GABA A Receptor-Mediated Tonic Inhibition in Thalamic Neurons [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2005
Tonic GABA A receptor-mediated inhibition is typically generated byδ subunit-containing extrasynaptic receptors. Because the δ subunit is highly expressed in the thalamus, we tested whether thalamocortical (TC) neurons of the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) and ventrobasal complex ...

Extrasynaptic α6 subunit-containing GABAA receptors modulate excitability in turtle spinal motoneurons.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Motoneurons are furnished with a vast repertoire of ionotropic and metabotropic receptors as well as ion channels responsible for maintaining the resting membrane potential and involved in the regulation of the mechanisms underlying its membrane ...

Crayfish tonic inhibition: prolonged modulation of behavioral excitability by classical GABAergic inhibition [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 1993
Previous studies have indirectly implicated the two neurotransmitters 5- HT and GABA in mediating tonic inhibition of the crayfish lateral giant (LG) escape reaction. In this study, pharmacological agents were selectively delivered to restricted portions of the abdominal CNS (where LG escape circuitry resides) to assess directly the role of these two ...

Cortical Tonic Inhibition Gates the Expression of Spike-and-Wave Discharges Associated with Absence Epilepsy

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Neuroscience
Objective: Absence seizures result from aberrant thalamocortical processing that confers synchronous, bilateral spike-and-wave discharges (SWDs) and behavioral arrest.

Astrocytic GABA Accumulation in Experimental Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
An imbalance of excitation and inhibition has been associated with the pathophysiology of epilepsy. Loss of GABAergic interneurons and/or synaptic inhibition has been shown in various epilepsy models and in human epilepsy.

Ovarian Sex Cord Stromal Tumors in Children and Adolescents—The European Standard Clinical Practice Recommendations

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As part of the European Cooperative Study Group for Paediatric Rare Tumours initiative, we developed standard clinical practice guidelines for ovarian sex cord stromal tumors, based on comprehensive national and international cohort analyses, literature review, and a final expert consensus conference.

The adjustment of γ-aminobutyric acidA tonic subunits in Huntington's disease: from transcription to translation to synaptic levels into the neostriatum

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2018
γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA), plays a key role in all stages of life, also is considered the main inhibitory neurotransmitter. GABA activates two kind of membrane receptors known as GABAA and GABAB, the first one is responsible to render tonic inhibition ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

The endogenous peptide antisecretory factor promotes tonic GABAergic signalling in CA1 stratum radiatum interneurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
Tonic GABAergic inhibition regulates neuronal excitability and has been implicated to be involved in both neurological and psychiatric diseases. We have previously shown that the endogenous peptide antisecretory factor (AF) decreases phasic GABAergic ...

A-type GABA receptor as a central target of TRPM8 agonist menthol. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Menthol is a widely-used cooling and flavoring agent derived from mint leaves. In the peripheral nervous system, menthol regulates sensory transduction by activating TRPM8 channels residing specifically in primary sensory neurons.
