GABA and glutamate depolarize cortical progenitor cells and inhibit DNA synthesis
We have found that, during the early stages of cortical neurogenesis, both GABA and glutamate depolarize cells in the ventricular zone of rat embryonic neocortex. In the ventricular zone, glutamate acts on AMPA/kainate receptors, while GABA acts on GABAA receptors. GABA induces an inward current at resting membrane potentials, presumably owing to a high intracellular Cl- concentration maintaine...
متن کاملSynaptic and extrasynaptic transmission of kidney-related neurons in the rostral ventrolateral medulla.
The rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) is a critical component of the sympathetic nervous system regulating homeostatic functions including arterial blood pressure. Using the transsynaptic retrograde viral tracer PRV-152, we identified kidney-related neurons in the RVLM. We found that PRV-152-labeled RVLM neurons displayed an unusually large persistent, tonic current to both glutamate, via N-...
متن کاملFunctional Expression of AMPA Receptors on Central Terminals of Rat Dorsal Root Ganglion Neurons and Presynaptic Inhibition of Glutamate Release
No direct evidence has been found for expression of functional AMPA receptors by dorsal root ganglion neurons despite immunocytochemical evidence suggesting they are present. Here we report evidence for expression of functional AMPA receptors by a subpopulation of dorsal root ganglion neurons. The AMPA receptors are most prominently located near central terminals of primary afferent fibers. AMP...
متن کاملCyclothiazide potently inhibits gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptors in addition to enhancing glutamate responses.
Ionotropic glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors mediate critical excitatory and inhibitory actions in the brain. Cyclothiazide (CTZ) is well known for its effect of enhancing glutamatergic transmission and is widely used as a blocker for alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA)-type glutamate receptor desensitization. Here, we report that in addi...
متن کاملExpression and conditioned inhibition of fear-potentiated startle after stimulation and blockade of AMPA/Kainate and GABA(A) receptors in the dorsal periaqueductal gray.
Previous work showed that the dorsal periaqueductal gray is involved in the inhibition of fear-potentiated startle. The present study investigated the effects of blockade and stimulation of Kainate/AMPA and GABA(A) receptors within the dorsal periaqueductal gray on expression and conditioned inhibition of fear-potentiated startle. Blockade of the Kainate/AMPA receptors enhanced whereas stimulat...
متن کاملP145: The Role of γ-Aminobutyric Acid Receptor in The Social Anxiety Disorder
Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is the one of the most common anxiety disorders. Despite its high prevalence, the disorder is still considerably undiagnosed and untreated. The disease places a massive burden on patient’s lives, affecting not only their social interactions but also their educational and professional activities, thereby constituting a severe disability. γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) s...
