Pseudorabies Virus Infection Alters Neuronal Activity and Connectivity In Vitro
Alpha-herpesviruses, including human herpes simplex virus 1 & 2, varicella zoster virus and the swine pseudorabies virus (PRV), infect the peripheral nervous system of their hosts. Symptoms of infection often include itching, numbness, or pain indicative of altered neurological function. To determine if there is an in vitro electrophysiological correlate to these characteristic in vivo symptoms...
متن کاملInterplay Activity-connectivity: Dynamics in Patterned Neuronal Cultures
The ability of a neuronal tissue to efficiently process and transmit information depends on both the intrinsic dynamical properties of the neurons and the connectivity between them. One of the few experimental systems where one can vary the connectivity of a neuronal network in a control manner are neuronal cultures [1] (Fig 1a, top). Here we show that, by combining neuronal cultures with diffe...
متن کاملIntegrin-cytoskeletal interactions in neuronal growth cones.
Development of the nervous system requires that neuronal growth cones, in coordination with growing axons, migrate along precise paths defined by specific extracellular matrix cues until they encounter their targets. Laminin promotes growth cone migration through receptors such as the integrins, but the underlying physical mechanism is poorly understood. We have investigated the cytoskeletal as...
متن کاملFunctional connectivity in in vitro neuronal assemblies
Complex network topologies represent the necessary substrate to support complex brain functions. In this work, we reviewed in vitro neuronal networks coupled to Micro-Electrode Arrays (MEAs) as biological substrate. Networks of dissociated neurons developing in vitro and coupled to MEAs, represent a valid experimental model for studying the mechanisms governing the formation, organization and c...
متن کاملNeuronal Connectivity: Bis Repetita Placent
The mechanism that allows a sensory neuron to extend its terminal branches along the appropriate fascicle within the CNS turns out to be the same as that which positioned the fascicle earlier on, and the gene that controls this position is the same as that which determined the neuron's identity.
