Abstract:
Background Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are members of a superfamily of fast neurotransmitter-gated receptor channels that includes the gamma-aminobutyric acidA (GABAA), glycine and serotonin type 3 (5-HT3) receptors. Most previous work on the interactions of general anesthetics with nAChRs has involved the muscle-type receptor. The authors investigate the effects of general anesthetics on defined mammalian neuronal and muscle nAChRs expressed in Xenopus oocytes.

Abstract:
Most computational models of neurons assume constant ion concentrations, disregarding the effects of changing ion concentrations on neuronal activity. Among the models that do incorporate ion concentration dynamics, simplifications are often made that sacrifice biophysical consistency, such as neglecting the effects of ionic diffusion on electrical potentials or the effects of electric drift on ion concentrations. A subset of models with ion concentration dynamics, often referred to as electrodiffusive models, account for ion concentration dynamics in a way that ensures a biophysical consisten

Abstract:
Three-dimensional (3D) neuronal cultures grown in hydrogels are promising platforms to design brain-like neuronal networks in vitro. However, the optimal properties of such cultures must be tuned to ensure a hydrogel matrix sufficiently porous to promote healthy development but also sufficiently rigid for structural support. Such an optimization is difficult since it implies the exploration of different hydrogel compositions and, at the same time, a functional analysis to validate neuronal culture viability. To advance in this quest, here we present a combination of a rheological protocol and

Monitoring the spatial distribution of intracellular GLU is important to study the uptake of GLU, but the approach has been hampered by the absence of appropriate GLU analogs that report the localization of GLU.

Abstract:
Background: Delirium is associated with dementia and thus biomarkers reflecting neurodegeneration are of interest. Fatty acid-binding protein 3 (FABP3) is a cytoplasmic neuronal protein that has been isolated from the brain. It is released following brain injury and concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are also higher in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Objective: To examine the relationship between CSF FABP3 concentration and delirium in hip fracture patients compared to a group of cognitively normal controls. Methods: CFS FABP3 concentration was measured i

Incubation of hippocampal slices in zero-Ca2+ medium blocks synaptic transmission and results in spontaneous burst discharges. This seizure-like activity is characterized by negative shifts (bursts) in the extracellular field potential and a K+ wave that propagates across the hippocampus. To isolate factors related to seizure initiation, propagation, and termination, a number of pharmacological agents were tested. K+ influx and efflux mechanisms where blocked with cesium, barium, tetraethylammonium (TEA), and 4-aminopyridine (4-AP). The effect of the gap junction blockers, heptanol and octanol

Alteration in the concentration of a 200 kDa neurofilament (NF200) in the rat hippocampus after forebrain ischemia and its relationship to hippocampal neuronal death were studied with an anti-200 kDa neurofilament antibody, using immunohistochemical and immunoblotting techniques. In rats subjected to 8 min of transient forebrain ischemia, hematoxylin-eosin staining showed survival of most of the neurons in the hippocampal CA1 region at 1 day and loss of more than 75% of the neurons at 7 days after ischemia.

Methylarginines inhibit nitric oxide synthases (NOS). Cellular concentrations of methylarginines are determined in part by the activity of dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH; EC 3.5.3.18). We have cloned human DDAH and identified and expressed a second novel DDAH isoform (DDAH I and II respectively). DDAH I predominates in tissues that express neuronal NOS. DDAH II predominates in tissues expressing endothelial NOS. These results strengthen the hypothesis that methylarginine concentration is actively regulated and identify molecular targets for the tissue and cell-specific regulatio

Abstract:
Background Endogenous serotonin (5-HT) provides important excitatory drive to inspiratory hypoglossal motoneurons (IHMNs). In vitro studies show that activation of postsynaptic 5-HT receptors decreases a leak K+ channel conductance and depolarizes hypoglossal motoneurons (HMNs). In contrast, volatile anesthetics increase this leak K+ channel conductance, which causes neuronal membrane hyperpolarization and depresses HMN excitability. Clinical studies show upper airway obstruction, indicating HMN depression, even at subanesthetic concentrations. The authors hypothesized that if anesthetic activ

Cultured cortical neurons deprived of glucose in a defined solution containing 2 m M glutamine became acutely swollen and went on to degenerate over the next day; this neuronal loss could be substantially attenuated by an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist. Removal of extracellular glutamine produced two effects: an increase in overall neuronal injury and a decrease in the protective effect of an NMDA antagonist. Both effects of glutamine removal were glutamine concentration dependent (EC50 for both ∼300 μ M) and not reversed by substitution of equimolar concentrations of alanine or argini

Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) has the ability to replicate in neurons and glial cells and to produce encephalitis leading to neurodegeneration. Accumulated evidence suggests that nitric oxide (NO) is a key molecule in the pathogenesis of neurotropic virus infections. NO can exert both cytoprotective as well as cytotoxic effects in the central nervous system (CNS) depending on its concentration, time course exposure, and site of action.

Abstract:
Learning of sensory cues is believed to rely on synchronous pre- and postsynaptic neuronal firing. Evidence is mounting that such synchronicity is not merely caused by properties of the underlying neuronal network but could also depend on the integrity of gap junctions that connect neurons and astrocytes in networks too. In this perspective, we set out to investigate the effect of astrocytic gap junctions on perceptual learning, introducing a model for coupled neuron-astrocyte networks. In particular, we focus on the fact that astrocytes are rich of GABA transporters (GATs) which can either up

Abstract:
<strong>Background:&nbsp;</strong>Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by key features such as loss of neurons, astrocytosis, and microglial activation/proliferation. These changes cause differences in the density of cell types between control and disease subjects, confounding results from gene expression studies. Chromosome X (ChrX) is known to be specifically important in the brain. We hypothesized the existence of a chromosomal signature of gene expression associated with the X-chromosome for neurological conditions not normally associated with that chromosome.
