Astrocyte-mediated activation of neuronal kainate receptors.
Exogenous kainate receptor agonists have been shown to modulate inhibitory synaptic transmission in the hippocampus, but the pathways involved in physiological activation of the receptors remain largely unknown. Accumulating evidence indicates that astrocytes can release glutamate in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner and signal to neighboring neurons. We tested the hypothesis that astrocyte-derived glu...
متن کاملMicroglia activation triggers astrocyte-mediated modulation of excitatory neurotransmission.
Fine control of neuronal activity is crucial to rapidly adjust to subtle changes of the environment. This fine tuning was thought to be purely neuronal until the discovery that astrocytes are active players of synaptic transmission. In the adult hippocampus, microglia are the other major glial cell type. Microglia are highly dynamic and closely associated with neurons and astrocytes. They react...
متن کاملAquaporin 4-Mediated Glutamate-Induced Astrocyte Swelling Is Partially Mediated through Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 5 Activation
Astrocytes are one of the most abundant cell types in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS), and astrocyte swelling is the primary event associated with brain edema. Glutamate, the principal excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter in the CNS, is released at high levels after brain injury including cerebral ischemia. This leads to astrocyte swelling, which we previously demonstrated is relat...
متن کاملHyperfibrinogenemia in schizophrenia.
tTWO ASSAYS developed in studies aimed at detection and measurement of blood factors specific for schizophrenia have employed plasma and plasma fractions (1, 2). it has been reported that use of serum obscures the differences between normal individuals and patients in one of these assays (3). Since one source of difference between plasma and serum is the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin, and ...
متن کاملthe effects of trypsin on rat brain astrocyte activation.
background: astrocytes are cells within the central nervous system which are activated in a wide spectrum of infections, and autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases.in pathologic states, they produce inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and nitric oxide (no), and sometimes they induce apoptosis.their protease-activated receptors (pars) can be activated by proteases, e.g.thrombin and ...
