The effect of ketamine on synaptic transmission and synaptic plasticity in CA1 area of rat hippocampal slices
The effect of ketamine (1-100 µM), which has NMDA receptor antagonist properties, on synaptic transmission and long-term potentiation (LTP) in CAl area of rat hippocampus was examined in vitro. Field potentials were recorded in pyramidal cell layer following Schaffer collateral stimulation. Primed-burst stimulation (PEs) was used for induction of LTP. The amplitude of population spiks (PS) was ...
متن کاملVisualization of quantal synaptic transmission by dendritic calcium imaging.
As changes in synaptic strength are thought to be critical for learning and memory, it would be useful to monitor the activity of individual identified synapses on mammalian central neurons. Calcium imaging of cortical neurons grown in primary culture was used to visualize the activation of individual postsynaptic elements by miniature excitatory synaptic currents elicited by spontaneous quanta...
متن کاملHeterogeneity in schistosomiasis transmission dynamics
Simple models of disease propagation often disregard the effects of transmission heterogeneity on the ecological and epidemiological dynamics associated with host-parasite interactions. However, for some diseases like schistosomiasis, a widespread parasitic infection caused by Schistosoma worms, accounting for heterogeneity is crucial to both characterize long-term dynamics and evaluate opportu...
متن کاملNO signalling in synaptic transmission
Background The NO/cGMP signaling cascade has been proposed to play a role in long-term potentiation (LTP) and the modulation of synaptic transmission. Nitric oxide is formed enzymatically by NO synthases (NOS); two NOS, the endothelial and neuronal isoform (eNOS, nNOS) produce NO as a signalling molecule. Functionally, NO has been reported to act as a retrograde messenger that is generated post...
