Dual voltage recordings were made from pairs of adjacent, synaptically connected thick tufted layer 5 pyramidal neurones in brain slices of young rat (14-16 days) somatosensory cortex to examine the physiological properties of unitary EPSPs. Pre- and po ...
Long-term memory formation for a weak passive avoidance task in day-old chicks is facilitated by corticosterone administration. Since (i) glutamatergic systems, through different receptor types, play a key role in learning and memory processes, and (ii) gl ...
Although correct cycling of neuronal membrane proteins is essential for neurite outgrowth and synaptic plasticity, neuron-specific proteins of the implicated endosomes have not been characterized. Here we show that a previously cloned, developmentally regu ...
Therapeutic value of the alkylating agent ifosfamide has been limited by major side effects including encephalopathy. Although the underlying biochemical processes of the neurotoxic side effects are still unclear, they could be attributed to metabolites ra ...
Glutamatergic neurotransmission is associated with release of arachidonic acid (AA) from membrane phospholipids of both neurons and astrocytes. Since free AA has been shown to enhance glutamate-mediated synaptic transmission, it can be postulated that glut ...
The effects of 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG), an activator of protein kinase C (PKC), on NMDA receptor-mediated responses were investigated in CA1 neurones of hippocampal slices using current- and voltage-clamp techniques. 2. Topical application of OA ...
Serine proteases are considered to be involved in plasticity-related events in the nervous system, but their in vivo targets and the importance of their control by endogenous inhibitors are still not clarified. Here, we demonstrate the crucial role of a po ...
Conventional intracellular recordings were used to monitor postsynaptic potentials of basolateral amygdala neurones (BLA) in brain slices comprising the BLA, the entorhinal cortex (EC) and the hippocampus, in which the EC-BLA connections were preserved. St ...
Cultured mouse cortical astrocytes of the stellate type were studied by using the patch-clamp technique in whole-cell configuration. The astrocytes express at least two types of outwardly rectifying K+ channels which mediate a transient and a sustained cur ...
Two types of ligand-gated ion channels were expressed with the Semliki Forest virus (SFV) expression system. The cDNAs for mouse serotonin 5-HT3 receptor and rat and human purinoreceptor P2x subtypes were introduced into the pSFV1 vector. In vitro transcri ...
