Inhibitory synaptogenesis in mouse somatosensory cortex.
It is widely believed that inhibitory synapses are not present or present in only small numbers in the rodent cerebral cortex during the early postnatal period when the cortex is being innervated by thalamocortical fibers. Quantitative electron microscopy was carried out on the posteromedial barrel subfield of mouse somatosensory cortex from postnatal day 4 (P4) when thalamocortical innervation...
متن کاملAxonal Dynamics of Excitatory and Inhibitory Neurons in Somatosensory Cortex
Cortical topography can be remapped as a consequence of sensory deprivation, suggesting that cortical circuits are continually modified by experience. To see the effect of altered sensory experience on specific components of cortical circuits, we imaged neurons, labeled with a genetically modified adeno-associated virus, in the intact mouse somatosensory cortex before and after whisker plucking...
متن کاملThalamocortical connections of the primary somatosensory cortex
Although each subdivision of primary somatosensory cortex (SI) receives dense input from the thalamus, but the exact location and type of information that the fibers convey have not been identified yet. In the present study, the exact source of thalamocortical fibers to areas 2 and 3b was investigated using tract-tracing techniques. Following injection of tracer into area 3b, labeled neurons ...
متن کاملMorphological changes and synaptogenesis of corticothalamic neurons in the somatosensory cortex of rat during perinatal development.
When rat fetuses grew from embryonic day (E) 18 to the day of birth (P0), the corticothalamic (CT) neurons, as identified by back labeling with 1,1'-dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylindocarbocyanine (DiI), in the somatosensory cortex underwent gradual changes in the shape of their cell bodies, in their distribution in the cortical plate and in the complexity of dendritic branching. Fluorescence...
متن کاملAngiotensin II attenuates functional hyperemia in the mouse somatosensory cortex.
We investigated whether angiotensin II (ANG II), a peptide that plays a central role in the genesis of hypertension, alters the coupling between synaptic activity and cerebral blood flow (CBF), a critical homeostatic mechanism that assures adequate cerebral perfusion to active brain regions. The somatosensory cortex was activated by stroking the facial whiskers in anesthetized C57BL/6J mice whi...
