Cholinergic synaptic transmission in adult Drosophila Kenyon cells in situ.
Behavioral and genetic studies in Drosophila have contributed to our understanding of molecular mechanisms that underlie the complex processes of learning and memory. Use of this model organism for exploration of the cellular mechanisms of memory formation requires the ability to monitor synaptic activity in the underlying neural networks, a challenging task in the tiny adult fly. Here, we desc...
متن کاملThe 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 کاملPIKfyve negatively regulates exocytosis in neurosecretory cells.
Regulated secretion depends upon a highly coordinated series of protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions. Two phosphoinositides, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate, are important for the ATP-dependent priming of the secretory apparatus prior to Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis. Mechanisms that control phosphoinositide levels are likely to play an importa...
متن کاملModulation of electrical synaptic transmission in zebrafish retinal horizontal cells.
Electrical synaptic transmission is widespread in the vertebrate CNS and its modulation plays a critical role in altering the properties of coupled neural networks. In order to define further the mechanisms of electrical synaptic plasticity in the vertebrate retina, the electrophysiological characteristics of solitary horizontal cells and horizontal cell pairs from the zebrafish (Brachydanio re...
متن کاملRegulation of neuropeptide stoichiometry in neurosecretory cells.
Peptidergic neurons and neurosecretory cells often contain multiple peptides, where they may be present in characteristic ratios. In this article, we describe how a set of five colocalized and coreleased peptides, two adipokinetic hormones (AKH I and AKH II), and three dimeric peptides (APRP 1, 2, and 3) are synthesized by the neurosecretory cells of the corpora cardiaca of the locust Schistoce...
