The effect of repeated pentylentetrazole (PTZ) administration on the postnatal development of hippocampal electrophysiological indices has been studied. Contrary to adult rats, repeated PTZ injections did not intensify convulsive activity in rat pups (from postnatal day 14). We did not observe any between-group differences in population spike amplitudes and paired pulse facilitation (PPF) ratio at 70 ms interpulse interval during early period of postnatal development, PPF suppression at short interlulse interval (15 ms) only was significantly less in PTZ group as compared with saline-injected controls, but the effect of saline injections has developed in the same directio However PTZ resulted in the modification of developmental profile. Besides the change of paired-pulse inhibition (15 ms), in the slices of young rats (27-48 postnatal days) the input-output curve was specifically modified and the intensity-dependent increase in population spike amplitudes was less expressed than in the slices of young control rats repeatedly subjected to saline injection, while PPF ratio of both groups was significantly decreased in a similar way, as compared with passive controls. In addition, LTP magnitude in the slices of PTZ group was also suppressed. These modifications did not correlate with convulsive activity. A significant correlation with convulsive activity was found only for population spike amplitudes evoked by low, near-threshold stimuli. 相似文献

Normal aging is characterized with a decline in hippocampal memory functions that is associated with changes in long‐term potentiation (LTP) of the CA3‐to‐CA1 synapse. Age‐related deficit of the dopaminergic system may contribute to impairment of CA1 LTP. Here we assessed how the modulation of CA1 LTP by dopamine is affected by aging and how it is dependent on the Ca2+ source. In slices from adult mice, the initial slope of the field potential showed strong LTP, but in slices from aged mice LTP was impaired. Dopamine did not affect LTP in adult slices, but enhanced LTP in aged slices. The dopamine D1/D5 receptor (D1R/D5R) agonist SKF‐81297 did not affect LTP in adult but caused a relative small increase in LTP in aged slices; however, although there was no difference in dopamine D4 receptor (D4R) expression, the D4R agonist PD168077 increased LTP in aged slices to a magnitude similar to that in adult slices. The N‐Methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor antagonist D‐AP5 reduced LTP in adult slices, but not in aged slices. However, in the presence of D‐AP5, PD168077 completely blocked LTP in aged slices. The voltage‐dependent calcium channel (VDCC) blocker nifedipine reduced LTP in adult slices, but surprisingly enhanced LTP in aged slices. Furthermore, in the presence of nifedipine, PD168077 caused a strong enhancement of LTP in aged slices to a magnitude exceeding LTP in adult slices. Our results indicate that the full rescue of impaired LTP in aging by the selective D4R activation and that a large potentiation role on LTP by co‐application of D4R agonist and VDCC blocker may provide novel strategies for the intervention of cognitive decline of aging and age‐related diseases. 相似文献

The neurobiological basis of pathological anxiety and the improvement of its pharmacological treatment are a matter of intensive investigation. Here, using electrophysiological techniques in brain slices from animals of the high anxiety-related behavior (HAB) and normal anxiety-related behavior (NAB) mouse model, we show that basal neurotransmission at ventral hippocampal CA3-CA1 synapses is weaker in HAB compared to NAB mice. We further demonstrate that paired-pulse facilitation (PPF) and long-term potentiation (LTP) at these synapses are more pronounced in slices from HAB animals. Based on previous findings, we also examined whether intranasal delivery of neuropeptide S (NPS), which increasingly emerges as a potential novel treatment option for anxiety symptoms occurring in a variety of diseases like anxiety disorders, posttraumatic stress disorder, and major depression, impacts on the high-anxiety electrophysiological endophenotype in HAB mice. Strikingly, we detected enhanced basal neurotransmission and reduced PPF and LTP in slices from NPS-treated HAB animals. Collectively, our study uncovers a multifaceted high-anxiety neurophysiological endophenotype in the murine ventral hippocampus and provides the first evidence that an intranasally applied neuropeptide can shift such an endophenotype in an anxiety-regulating brain structure towards a “normal”-anxiety one. 相似文献

Various animal models of Alzheimer disease (AD) are characterized by deficits in spatial memory that are causally related
to altered synaptic function and impairment of long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus. In Tg2576 AD mice, we compared
LTP in 2 major hippocampal pathways, Schaffer collateral (SC) and mossy fiber (MF) pathways. Whereas LTP was completely abolished
in the SC pathway of Tg2576 mice, we found no decrease in LTP induced by stimulation of the MF pathway. In fact, we found
that in the MF pathway, LTP was slightly, but significantly, enhanced compared with that in the MF pathway of WT littermates.
This pathway-specific impairment of LTP is not attributable to alterations in transmitter release, as indicated by an unaltered
paired-pulse ratio. These results suggest that the spatial memory deficits normally seen in AD models arise primarily from
LTP impairment at the SC pathway. 相似文献

Circadian regulation of hippocampal long-term potentiation 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The goal of this study is to investigate the possible circadian regulation of hippocampal excitability and long-term potentiation (LTP) measured by stimulating the Schaffer collaterals (SC) and recording the field excitatory postsynaptic potential (fEPSP) from the CA1 dendritic layer or the population spike (PS) from the soma in brain slices of C3H and C57 mice. These 2 strains of mice were of interest because the C3H mice secrete melatonin rhythmically while the C57 mice do not. The authors found that the magnitude of the enhancement of the PS was significantly greater in LTP recorded from night slices compared to day slices of both C3H and C57 mice. They also found significant diurnal variation in the decay of LTP measured with fEPSPs, with the decay slower during the night in both strains of mice. There was evidence for a diurnal rhythm in the input/output function of pyramidal neurons measured at the soma in C57 but not C3H mice. Furthermore, LTP in the PS, measured in slices prepared during the day but recorded during the night, had a profile remarkably similar to the night group. Finally, PS recordings were carried out in slices from C3H mice maintained in constant darkness prior to experimentation. Again, the authors found that the magnitude of the enhancement of the PS was significantly greater in LTP recorded from subjective night slices compared to subjective day slices. These results provide the 1st evidence that an endogenous circadian oscillator modulates synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus. 相似文献

通过细胞外记录方法记录场兴奋性突触后电位(field excitatory postsynaptic potential,fEPSP)的变化是研究突触可塑性,诸如长时程增强(long-term potentiation,LTP)和双脉冲可塑性(paired-pulse plasticity,PPP)的最常见方法之一。fEPSP波形的起始斜率、起始面积、峰值及总面积等的变化常用作判断突触可塑性增强或减弱的标准。在相同记录结果中测量fEPSP波形不同部位通常会有不同的结果,因此可能得出不同的结论,这些往往会被研究者忽略。本文通过测量小鼠海马CA1区细胞fEPSP波形的起始斜率、起始面积、峰值、总面积及时间参数等,分析比较高频刺激(high-frequency stimulation,HFS)诱发的突触可塑性,包括LTP和PPP的变化。结果显示,LTP过程中AMPA受体动力学变化加快,且在同一记录中,fEPSP波形不同部位的测量分析可以产生较大幅度的LTP和PPP差异。给予HFS后,双脉冲诱发fEPSP的比率在测量起始面积时略有下降,但在测量起始斜率时则显著增加,这些结果可能导致相反的结论。因此,全面仔细地分析fEPSP波形在整个实验中的变化对正确了解突触可塑性至关重要。 相似文献

Seizures have profound impact on synaptic function and plasticity. While kainic acid is a popular method to induce seizures and to potentially affect synaptic plasticity, it can also produce physiological-like oscillations and trigger some forms of long-term potentiation (LTP). Here, we examine whether induction of LTP is altered in hippocampal slices prepared from rats with different sensitivity to develop status epilepticus (SE) by systemic injection of kainic acid. Rats were treated with multiple low doses of kainic acid (5 mg/kg; i.p.) to develop SE in a majority of animals (72–85% rats). A group of rats were resistant to develop SE (15–28%) after several accumulated doses. Animals were subsequently tested using chronic recordings and object recognition tasks before brain slices were prepared for histological studies and to examine basic features of hippocampal synaptic function and plasticity, including input/output curves, paired-pulse facilitation and theta-burst induced LTP. Consistent with previous reports in kindling and pilocapine models, LTP was reduced in rats that developed SE after kainic acid injection. These animals exhibited signs of hippocampal sclerosis and developed spontaneous seizures. In contrast, resistant rats did not become epileptic and had no signs of cell loss and mossy fiber sprouting. In slices from resistant rats, theta-burst stimulation induced LTP of higher magnitude when compared with control and epileptic rats. Variations on LTP magnitude correlate with animals’ performance in a hippocampal-dependent spatial memory task. Our results suggest dissociable long-term effects of treatment with kainic acid on synaptic function and plasticity depending on its epileptogenic efficiency. 相似文献

Incubation of the rat hippocampal slices with caspase-3 inhibitor Z-DEVD-FMK resulted in a time-dependent decrease in long-term potentiation (LTP) magnitude. Analysis of paired pulse facilitation at a 70-msec interval revealed that, after caspase-3 inhibition, the increase in the amplitude of the second response in the pair during LTP that was characteristic for control slices, did not occur. In this situation, the LTP magnitude depended on differences in the amplitudes of the first and second responses before the LTP induction. LTP was absent in slices with initially high efficacy of the afferent stimulation and respective low paired pulse facilitation. The Caspase inhibition seems to prevent structural reorganization during the LTP related to involvement into the response of new synapses and neurons. 相似文献

miR-132 and miR-212 are two closely related miRNAs encoded in the same intron of a small non-coding gene, which have been suggested to play roles in both immune and neuronal function. We describe here the generation and initial characterisation of a miR-132/212 double knockout mouse. These mice were viable and fertile with no overt adverse phenotype. Analysis of innate immune responses, including TLR-induced cytokine production and IFNβ induction in response to viral infection of primary fibroblasts did not reveal any phenotype in the knockouts. In contrast, the loss of miR-132 and miR-212, while not overtly affecting neuronal morphology, did affect synaptic function. In both hippocampal and neocortical slices miR-132/212 knockout reduced basal synaptic transmission, without affecting paired-pulse facilitation. Hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) induced by tetanic stimulation was not affected by miR-132/212 deletion, whilst theta burst LTP was enhanced. In contrast, neocortical theta burst-induced LTP was inhibited by loss of miR-132/212. Together these results indicate that miR-132 and/or miR-212 play a significant role in synaptic function, possibly by regulating the number of postsynaptic AMPA receptors under basal conditions and during activity-dependent synaptic plasticity. 相似文献

The effect of long-term potentiation (LTP) on endogenous amino acid release from rat hippocampus slices was studied. LTP was induced in vivo by application of a tetanus (200 Hz, 200 ms) to the Schaffer collateral fibers in unanesthetized rats. Endogenous release of glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) was investigated 60 min after tetanization in CA1 subslices of potentiated and control rats. No significant effects of LTP were observed in basal and K(+)-induced Ca(2+)-independent release components of these amino acids. In contrast, K(+)-induced Ca(2+)-dependent release of both glutamate and GABA increased approximately 100% in slices from potentiated rats. No differences were observed in total content of glutamate and GABA between the subslices from control and LTP animals. These results suggest a persistent increase in the recruitment of the presynaptic vesicular pool of glutamate and GABA during LTP. 相似文献

Long-term potentiation (LTP) of excitatory postsynaptic potentials (epsp's) was investigated with extracellular field potential recording in hippocampal slices from rats. In the presence of 100 microM 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) the probability of eliciting LTP was unchanged or increased; the extent of potentiation was not significantly different from normal. During LTP saturation, 4-AP further enhanced the epsp. These data are inconsistent with an involvement of A-current reduction in LTP. 相似文献

Effects of matrix metalloproteinase inhibition on short- and long-term plasticity of schaffer collateral/CA1 synapses 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

It is increasingly evident that matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a family of zinc containing extracellular endopeptidases, participate in processes supporting hippocampal synaptic plasticity. The purpose of this study was to further the understanding of MMPs involvement in hippocampal plasticity. Acute hippocampal slices, generated from 20- to 30-day-old male Sprague-Dawley rats, were subjected to various electrophysiologic stimulatory paradigms to produce either short-term or long-term modifications to synaptic efficacy. Slices exposed to broad-spectrum MMP inhibitor, FN-439, exhibited impairments in paired-pulse facilitation, theta-burst facilitation, and long-term depression. Additionally, we observed that MMP inhibition impaired both the induction and stability of long-term potentiation (LTP). Furthermore, evidence indicated that the effect of MMP inhibition on LTP maintenance is dependent upon integrin-directed adhesion, whereas the effects of MMP inhibition on LTP induction are independent of integrin-directed adhesion. Together, these data support a generalized role for MMPs in short-term and long-term hippocampal plasticity and indicate that MMPs are a necessary facet of integrin-mediated cell adhesion supporting LTP stabilization. 相似文献

Stimulation of [3H]inositol monophosphate ([3H]InsP) formation by ibotenate or trans-1-aminocyclopentyl-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (t-ACPD) in rat hippocampal slices was enhanced after tetanic stimulation of the Schaffer collaterals projecting to the CA1 region (in vitro) or the perforant pathway projecting to the dentate gyrus (in freely moving animals). This effect was observed 5 h (but not 2 h) after long-term potentiation (LTP) induction and was abolished if tetanic stimulation was performed in the presence of specific antagonists of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors. The delayed increase in excitatory amino acid-induced polyphosphoinositide (PPI) hydrolysis was accompanied by an enhanced responsiveness to norepinephrine, whereas the basal and carbamylcholine-stimulated [3H]InsP formation were unchanged. These results suggest that an increased activity of "metabotropic" glutamate receptors may contribute to the synaptic mechanisms enabling the late expression and or maintenance of LTP. Accordingly, LTP decayed more rapidly (within 5 h) in rats repeatedly injected with LiCl (60-120 mg/kg, i.p., for 10 days), a treatment that led to a reduced efficacy of ibotenate and norepinephrine in stimulating PPI hydrolysis in hippocampal slices. 相似文献

Biochemical effects of high-frequency synaptic activity studied with in vitro slices 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Brain slices have a number of features that may be of value in the analysis of how physiological events affect neuronal chemistry. This paper discusses this topic and describes slice experiments concerned with the chemical events responsible for long-term potentiation (LTP) of synaptic responses found in hippocampus after brief episodes of high-frequency stimulation. Work with two variants of the slice procedure indicated that LTP is accompanied by an increase in the sodium-independent binding of [3H]glutamate to partially purified synaptic membranes; this effect very likely results from an increase in the numbers of a particular postsynaptic receptor. Stimulation that produces long-term potentiation also causes a significant change in the endogenous phosphorylation of pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), a key mitochondrial enzyme. Inasmuch as the phosphorylated state of PDH is strongly correlated with calcium sequestration by mitochondria, it is possible that LTP is triggered by a transient perturbation of the calcium buffering function provided by mitochondria. Low micromolecular levels of calcium increase glutamate binding to purified membranes apparently via the activation of a calcium-sensitive thiol proteinase. This mechanism could account for the increase in glutamate binding found in slices exhibiting LTP. These experiments suggest a possible explanation for long-term potentiation and indicate that slices can be used to detect at least some of the biochemical consequences of repetitive synaptic activity. 相似文献

Alterations in Nitric Oxide-Stimulated Endogenous ADP-Ribosylation Associated with Long-Term Potentiation in Rat Hippocampus 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
Abstract: The present study examines the possible involvement of nitric oxide (NO)-stimulated endogenous ADP-ribosylation in long-term potentiation (LTP). LTP was induced in hippocampal slices by stimulation of Schaffer collateral inputs to the CA1 pyramidal neurons. Basal and sodium nitroprusside (SNP), which generates NO, stimulation of endogenous ADP-ribosylation was then studied in CA1 subfields isolated from the slices. Control slices received no treatment or were tetanized in the presence of aminophosphonovaleric acid, an NMDA receptor antagonist that blocks the development of LTP. SNP-stimulated ADP-ribosylation of endogenous proteins was reduced by 40–70% in LTP slices relative to control slices. LTP was also associated with a small but significant reduction in basal ADP-ribosylation activity. The results demonstrate that the induction of LTP is associated with regulation of endogenous ADP-ribosylation and suggest a role for this type of covalent modification in some aspect of LTP. 相似文献

Cognitive deficits and memory loss are frequent in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. Persistent changes in synaptic efficacy are considered as a cellular substrate underlying memory processes. Electrophysiological studies have shown that the properties of short-term and long-term synaptic plasticity in the cortex and hippocampus may undergo substantial changes after seizures. However, the neural mechanisms responsible for these changes are not clear. In this study, we investigated the properties of short-term and long-term synaptic plasticity in rat hippocampal slices 24 h after pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced status epilepticus. We found that the induction of long-term potentiation (LTP) in CA1 pyramidal cells is reduced compared to the control, while short-term facilitation is increased. The experimental results do not support the hypothesis that status epilepticus leads to background potentiation of hippocampal synapses and further LTP induction becomes weaker due to occlusion, as the dependence of synaptic responses on the strength of input stimulation was not different in the control and experimental animals. The decrease in LTP can be caused by impairment of molecular mechanisms of neuronal plasticity, including those associated with NMDA receptors and/or changes in their subunit composition. Realtime PCR demonstrated significant increases in the expression of GluN1 and GluN2A subunits 3 h after PTZ-induced status epilepticus. The overexpression of obligate GluN1 subunit suggests an increase in the total number of NMDA receptors in the hippocampus. A 3-fold increase in the expression of the GluN2B subunit observed 24 h after PTZ-induced status epilepticus might be indicative of an increase in the proportion of GluN2B-containing NMDA receptors. Increased expression of the GluN2B subunit may be a cause for reducing the magnitude of LTP at hippocampal synapses after status epilepticus. 相似文献

Long-term potentiation (LTP) is impaired in the CA1 area of hippocampal slices from rats with chronic moderate hyperammonemia. We studied the mechanisms by which hyperammonemia in vivo impairs LTP. This process requires sequential activation of soluble guanylate cyclase, cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) and cyclic GMP-degrading phosphodiesterase. Application of the tetanus induced a rapid increase of cyclic GMP in slices from control or hyperammonemic rats, which is followed in control slices by a sustained decrease in cyclic GMP due to sustained activation of cyclic GMP-degrading phosphodiesterase, which in turn is due to sustained activation of PKG. In slices from rats with chronic hyperammonemia tetanus-induced decrease in cyclic GMP was delayed and transient due to lower and transient activation of PKG and of the phosphodiesterase. Hyperammonemia-induced impairment of LTP may be involved in the alterations of cognitive function in patients with hepatic encephalopathy. 相似文献

The membrane glycoprotein CD200 is expressed on several cell types, including neurons, whereas expression of its receptor, CD200R, is restricted principally to cells of the myeloid lineage, including microglia. The interaction between CD200 and CD200R maintains microglia and macrophages in a quiescent state; therefore, CD200-deficient mice express an inflammatory phenotype exhibiting increased macrophage or microglial activation in models of arthritis, encephalitis, and uveoretinitis. Here, we report that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and Pam(3)CysSerLys(4) exerted more profound effects on release of the proinflammatory cytokines, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα), in glia prepared from CD200(-/-) mice compared with wild type mice. This effect is explained by the loss of CD200 on astrocytes, which modulates microglial activation. Expression of Toll-like receptors 4 and 2 (TLR4 and -2) was increased in glia prepared from CD200(-/-) mice, and the evidence indicates that microglial activation, assessed by the increased numbers of CD11b(+) cells that stained positively for both MHCII and CD40, was enhanced in CD200(-/-) mice compared with wild type mice. These neuroinflammatory changes were associated with impaired long term potentiation (LTP) in CA1 of hippocampal slices prepared from CD200(-/-) mice. One possible explanation for this is the increase in TNFα in hippocampal tissue prepared from CD200(-/-) mice because TNFα application inhibited LTP in CA1. Significantly, LPS and Pam(3)CysSerLys(4), at concentrations that did not affect LTP in wild type mice, inhibited LTP in slices prepared from CD200(-/-) mice, probably due to the accompanying increase in TLR2 and TLR4. Thus, the neuroinflammatory changes that result from CD200 deficiency have a negative impact on synaptic plasticity. 相似文献

Protein tyrosine phosphatase delta (PTPdelta) is a receptor-type PTP expressed in the specialized regions of the brain including the hippocampal CA2 and CA3, B lymphocytes and thymic medulla. To elucidate the physiological roles of PTPdelta, PTPdelta-deficient mice were produced by gene targeting. It was found that PTPdelta-deficient mice were semi-lethal due to insufficient food intake. They also exhibited learning impairment in the Morris water maze, reinforced T-maze and radial arm maze tasks. Interestingly, although the histology of the hippocampus appeared normal, the magnitudes of long-term potentiation (LTP) induced at hippocampal CA1 and CA3 synapses were significantly enhanced in PTPdelta-deficient mice, with augmented paired-pulse facilitation in the CA1 region. Thus, it was shown that PTPdelta plays important roles in regulating hippocampal LTP and learning processes, and that hippocampal LTP does not necessarily positively correlate with spatial learning ability. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a specific PTP involved in the regulation of synaptic plasticity or in the processes regulating learning and memory. 相似文献
