Synapse-Specific Control of Experience-Dependent Plasticity by Presynaptic NMDA Receptors
Sensory experience orchestrates the development of cortical circuitry by adaptively modifying neurotransmission and synaptic connectivity. However, the mechanisms underlying these experience-dependent modifications remain elusive. Here we demonstrate that visual experience suppresses a presynaptic NMDA receptor (preNMDAR)-mediated form of timing-dependent long-term depression (tLTD) at visual c...
متن کاملSynapse-Specific Downregulation of NMDA Receptors by Early Experience: A Critical Period for Plasticity of Sensory Input to Olfactory Cortex
Olfaction is required at birth for survival; however, little is known about the maturation of olfactory cortical circuits. Here we show that in vivo sensory experience mediates the development of excitatory transmission in pyramidal neurons of rat olfactory cortex. We find a postnatal critical period during which there is an experience-dependent increase in the contribution of AMPARs versus NMD...
متن کاملBurst-Dependent Bidirectional Plasticity in the Cerebellum Is Driven by Presynaptic NMDA Receptors.
Numerous studies have shown that cerebellar function is related to the plasticity at the synapses between parallel fibers and Purkinje cells. How specific input patterns determine plasticity outcomes, as well as the biophysics underlying plasticity of these synapses, remain unclear. Here, we characterize the patterns of activity that lead to postsynaptically expressed LTP using both in vivo and...
متن کاملSynapse-specific expression of functional presynaptic NMDA receptors in rat somatosensory cortex.
Presynaptic NMDA receptors (NMDARs) modulate release and plasticity at many glutamatergic synapses, but the specificity of their expression across synapse classes has not been examined. We found that non-postsynaptic, likely presynaptic NR2B-containing NMDARs enhanced AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission at layer 4 (L4) to L2/3 (L4-L2/3) synapses in juvenile rat barrel cortex. This modu...
متن کاملPresynaptic control of subunit composition of NMDA receptors mediating synaptic plasticity.
Subunit composition of subsynaptic transmitter receptors is controlled presynaptically in the developing neuromuscular junction. To investigate presynaptic regulation of NMDA receptor subunit composition in the CNS, we co-cultured different types of hippocampal explants with dissociated target neurons. Postsynaptic NMDA receptors were studied using whole-cell patch-clamp recordings. After 1 wee...
