Oxytocin-induced postinhibitory rebound firing facilitates bursting activity in oxytocin neurons.
During parturition and lactation, neurosecretory oxytocin (OT) neurons in the hypothalamus achieve pulsatile hormone secretion by coordinated bursts of firing that occur throughout the neuronal population. This activity is partly controlled by somatodendritic release of OT, which facilitates the onset and recurrence of synchronized bursting. To further investigate the cellular mechanisms underl...
متن کاملActivation of Supraoptic Oxytocin Neurons by Secretin Facilitates Social Recognition
BACKGROUND Social recognition underlies social behavior in animals, and patients with psychiatric disorders associated with social deficits show abnormalities in social recognition. Oxytocin is implicated in social behavior and has received attention as an effective treatment for sociobehavioral deficits. Secretin receptor-deficient mice show deficits in social behavior. The relationship betwee...
متن کاملReliability of triggering postinhibitory rebound bursts in deep cerebellar neurons.
Deep cerebellar nuclear (DCN) neurons exhibit distinct phenotypes of rebound discharge following current-evoked membrane hyperpolarizations that arise from specific Ca(V)3 T-type Ca(2+) channel isoforms and Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels. The probability of evoking rebound bursts following a brief train of GABAergic inhibitory synaptic input from cerebellar Purkinje cells was recently questione...
متن کاملClustering through postinhibitory rebound in synaptically coupled neurons.
Postinhibitory rebound is a nonlinear phenomenon present in a variety of nerve cells. Following a period of hyperpolarization this effect allows a neuron to fire a spike or packet of spikes before returning to rest. It is an important mechanism underlying central pattern generation for heartbeat, swimming and other motor patterns in many neuronal systems. In this paper we consider how networks ...
متن کاملEmergent Synchronous Bursting of Oxytocin Neuronal Network
When young suckle, they are rewarded intermittently with a let-down of milk that results from reflex secretion of the hormone oxytocin; without oxytocin, newly born young will die unless they are fostered. Oxytocin is made by magnocellular hypothalamic neurons, and is secreted from their nerve endings in the pituitary in response to action potentials (spikes) that are generated in the cell bodi...
