Coordinate synaptic mechanisms contributing to olfactory cortical adaptation.
Anterior piriform cortex (aPCX) neurons rapidly filter repetitive odor stimuli despite relatively maintained input from mitral cells. This cortical adaptation is correlated with short-term depression of afferent synapses, in vivo. The purpose of this study was to elucidate mechanisms underlying this nonassociative neural plasticity using in vivo and in vitro preparations and to determine its ro...
متن کاملPostsynaptic GluA1 enables acute retrograde enhancement of presynaptic function to coordinate adaptation to synaptic inactivity.
Prolonged blockade of AMPA-type glutamate receptors in hippocampal neuron cultures leads to homeostatic enhancements of pre- and postsynaptic function that appear correlated at individual synapses, suggesting some form of transsynaptic coordination. The respective modifications are important for overall synaptic strength but their interrelationship, dynamics, and molecular underpinnings are unc...
متن کاملOlfactory cortical adaptation facilitates detection of odors against background.
Detection and discrimination of odors generally, if not always, occurs against an odorous background. On any given inhalation, olfactory receptor neurons will be activated by features of both the target odorant and features of background stimuli. To identify a target odorant against a background therefore, the olfactory system must be capable of grouping a subset of features into an odor object...
متن کاملMechanisms contributing to synaptic Ca2+ signals and their heterogeneity in hair cells.
Sound coding at hair cell ribbon synapses is tightly regulated by Ca(2+). Here, we used patch-clamp, fast confocal Ca(2+) imaging and modeling to characterize synaptic Ca(2+) signaling in cochlear inner hair cells (IHCs) of hearing mice. Submicrometer fluorescence hotspots built up and collapsed at the base of IHCs within a few milliseconds of stimulus onset and cessation. They most likely repr...
متن کاملMechanisms Contributing to Unresponsiveness to Mercurial
The ultimate failure of edematous cardiac patients to respond to mercurial diuretics is well established. Although the older literature ascribed this to renal tubular accommodation to mercury, some patients have received mercurials for many years without manifesting such acquired tubular resistance. More recently, because of the potentiation of mercurial diuresis in previously unresponsive pati...
