Activity-dependent release of adenosine contributes to short-term depression at CA3-CA1 synapses in rat hippocampus.
High-frequency stimulation results in a transient, presynaptically mediated decrease in synaptic efficacy called short-term depression (STD). Stimulation of Schaffer-collateral axons at 10 Hz for 5 s resulted in approximately 75% depression of excitatory postsynaptic current (EPSC) slope recorded from CA1 cells in rat organotypic slice cultures. An adenosine A(1) receptor antagonist decreased t...
متن کاملControl of GABA Release at Mossy Fiber-CA3 Connections in the Developing Hippocampus
In this review some of the recent work carried out in our laboratory concerning the functional role of GABAergic signalling at immature mossy fibres (MF)-CA3 principal cell synapses has been highlighted. While in adulthood MF, the axons of dentate gyrus granule cells release onto CA3 principal cells and interneurons glutamate, early in postnatal life they release GABA, which exerts into targete...
متن کاملY5 receptors mediate neuropeptide Y actions at excitatory synapses in area CA3 of the mouse hippocampus.
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a potent modulator of excitatory synaptic transmission and limbic seizures. NPY is abundantly expressed in the dentate gyrus and is thought to modulate hippocampal excitability via activation of presynaptic Y2 receptors (Y2R). Here we demonstrate that NPY, and commonly used Y2R-preferring (NPY(13-36)) and Y5 receptor (Y5R)-preferring ([D-Trp(32)]NPY and hPP) peptide agon...
متن کاملCalcium release from presynaptic ryanodine-sensitive stores is required for long-term depression at hippocampal CA3-CA3 pyramidal neuron synapses.
Although Ca2+ release from internal stores has been proposed to be important for the induction of long-term synaptic plasticity, the importance of Ca2+ stores localized in presynaptic terminals remains unclear. Here, we have selectively applied pharmacological antagonists to either the presynaptic or postsynaptic cell in paired whole-cell recordings from hippocampal CA3 pyramidal neurons in sli...
متن کاملPhase resetting Analysis of High potassium epileptiform Activity in CA3 Region of the rat Hippocampus
The theory of phase resetting can reveal important information about the dynamic behavior of a periodic system when a single brief stimulus is applied to that system at the appropriate time. Phase resetting studies have revealed the existence in some biological systems of a vulnerable stimulus window generating desynchronization and suppression of the activity. The objective of this study was t...
