Wnt5a promotes hippocampal postsynaptic development and GluN2B-induced expression via the eIF2 alpha HRI kinase

Eva Ramos Fernandez

Wnt signaling plays a key role in neurodevelopment and neuronal maturation. Specifically, Wnt5a stimulates postsynaptic assemblies, increases glutamatergic neurotransmission and, through calcium signaling, generates nitric oxide (NO). Trying to unveil the ...

Dendritic Voltage Recordings Explain Paradoxical Synaptic Plasticity: A Modeling Study

Wulfram Gerstner, Matthias Chinyen Tsai, Laureline Logiaco, Claire Meissner-Bernard

Experiments have shown that the same stimulation pattern that causes Long-Term Potentiation in proximal synapses, will induce Long-Term Depression in distal ones. In order to understand these, and other, surprising observations we use a phenomenological mo ...

Mesoscopic population equations for spiking neural networks with synaptic short-term plasticity

Wulfram Gerstner, Tilo Schwalger, Valentin Marc Schmutz

Coarse-graining microscopic models of biological neural networks to obtain mesoscopic models of neural activities is an essential step towards multi-scale models of the brain. Here, we extend a recent theory for mesoscopic population dynamics with static s ...

Data-driven integration of hippocampal CA1 synaptic physiology in silico

Eilif Benjamin Muller, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Michael Reimann, Armando Romani, András Ecker, Michele Migliore, Szabolcs Kali, Sàra Sàray, Audrey Mercer

The anatomy and physiology of monosynaptic connections in rodent hippocampal CA1 have been extensively studied in recent decades. Yet, the resulting knowledge remains disparate and difficult to reconcile. Here, we present a data-driven approach to integrat ...

LTP of inhibition at PV interneuron output synapses requires developmental BMP signaling

Ralf Schneggenburger, Christopher Clark, Denys Osypenko, Evan Dean Vickers

Parvalbumin (PV)-expressing interneurons (PV-INs) mediate well-timed inhibition of cortical principal neurons, and plasticity of these interneurons is involved in map remodeling of primary sensory cortices during critical periods of development. To assess ...

Somatostatin enhances visual processing and perception by suppressing excitatory inputs to parvalbumin-positive interneurons in V1

Carl Petersen, Graham Knott, Catherine Maclachlan, Seung-Hee Lee

Somatostatin (SST) is a neuropeptide expressed in a major subtype of GABAergic interneurons in the cortex. Despite abundant expression of SST and its receptors, their modulatory function in cortical processing remains unclear. Here, we found that SST appli ...

Cellular, Synaptic and Network Effects of Acetylcholine in the Neocortex

Henry Markram, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Daniel Keller, Cristina Colangelo, Polina Shichkova

The neocortex is densely innervated by basal forebrain (BF) cholinergic neurons. Long-range axons of cholinergic neurons regulate higher-order cognitive function and dysfunction in the neocortex by releasing acetylcholine (ACh). ACh release dynamically rec ...

Estimating the Readily-Releasable Vesicle Pool Size at Synaptic Connections in the Neocortex

Henry Markram, Eilif Benjamin Muller, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Rodrigo de Campos Perin, Giuseppe Chindemi, Natali Barros Zulaica

Previous studies based on the 'Quantal Model' for synaptic transmission suggest that neurotransmitter release is mediated by a single release site at individual synaptic contacts in the neocortex. However, recent studies seem to contradict this hypothesis ...

Role of BMP Signaling for the Formation of Auditory Brainstem Nuclei and Large Auditory Relay Synapses

Ralf Schneggenburger, Christopher Clark, Elin Kristina Kronander

Large excitatory synapses are found at specific points in the neuronal circuits of the auditory brainstem, to enable fast information transfer and the preservation of acoustic timing information. The extracellular cues and signaling mechanisms that lead to ...

Ultrastructural basis of strong unitary inhibition in a binaural neuron

Graham Knott, Ralf Schneggenburger, Enida Gjoni, Clémentine Léa Aguet

Binaural neurons in the lateral superior olive (LSO) integrate sound information arriving from each ear, and powerful glycinergic inhibition of these neurons plays an important role in this process. In the present study, we investigated the ultrastructural ...
