Local Field Potentials (LFPs) integrate multiple neuronal events like synaptic inputs and intracellular potentials. LFP spatiotemporal features are particularly relevant in view of their applications both in research (e.g. for understanding brain rhythms, inter-areal neural communication and neuronal coding) and in the clinics (e.g. for improving invasive Brain-Machine Interface devices). However the relation between LFPs and spikes is complex and not fully understood. As spikes represent the fundamental currency of neuronal communication this gap in knowledge strongly limits our comprehension of neuronal phenomena underlying LFPs. We investigated the LFP-spike relation during tactile stimulation in primary somatosensory (S-I) cortex in the rat. First we quantified how reliably LFPs and spikes code for a stimulus occurrence. Then we used the information obtained from our analyses to design a predictive model for spike occurrence based on LFP inputs. The model was endowed with a flexible meta-structure whose exact form, both in parameters and structure, was estimated by using a multi-objective optimization strategy. Our method provided a set of nonlinear simple equations that maximized the match between models and true neurons in terms of spike timings and Peri Stimulus Time Histograms. We found that both LFPs and spikes can code for stimulus occurrence with millisecond precision, showing, however, high variability. Spike patterns were predicted significantly above chance for 75% of the neurons analysed. Crucially, the level of prediction accuracy depended on the reliability in coding for the stimulus occurrence. The best predictions were obtained when both spikes and LFPs were highly responsive to the stimuli. Spike reliability is known to depend on neuron intrinsic properties (i.e. on channel noise) and on spontaneous local network fluctuations. Our results suggest that the latter, measured through the LFP response variability, play a dominant role.  相似文献

The Venus clam Chamelea gallina is fairly common along the western coasts of the Adriatic and is subjected to intense fishing. Since over the last 20 years extensive hypoxic and anoxic conditions have repeatedly damaged this natural resource, we decided to study the effects of anoxic stress on the functionality of clam haemocytes and the consequences on immune responses. Clams, exposed to air, close their valves and tissues become anoxic and metabolism processes switch to anaerobiosis. In these conditions, a significant decrease in the haematocrit value and in the percentage of acid phosphatase-positive haemocytes was observed, while the number of cells with beta-glucuronidase significantly increased after day 1. The above indices generally returned to control values when clams were re-immersed in seawater after 1 day of treatment. Clams exposed to air for 2 days and then re-immersed, attempted to recover in the subsequent 3 days. Animals had fully recovered on day 4. Three-day-exposed clams did not recover. Phagocytic and adhesion indices decreased significantly after the first day of air exposure. The change in frequency of three types of circulating cells (spreading, round, apoptotic) was also monitored.  相似文献

The supernatant from cultures of haemocytes of the compound ascidian Botryllus schlosseri incubated with zymosan (conditioned medium; CM) can enhance yeast phagocytosis by Botryllus blood cells. It contains molecules recognised by antibodies raised against the mammalian pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1-α and TNF-α which appear as a single band of 60 kDa in immunoblot analysis. The effects on phagocytosis are abolished by the presence of sugars, such as galactose and rhamnose, sharing the same hydroxyl group configuration at C2 and C4. The same sugars also inhibit the haemagglutinating activity of the CM, suggesting the presence of lectins with opsonic activity. With immunoblot analysis, we confirmed the presence, in CM, of B. schlosseri rhamnose-binding lectins (BsRBLs), recently identified and characterised by our team, as a single electrophoretic band of 37 kDa. We had already demonstrated that these molecules are synthesised and secreted by activated phagocytes. Since previous studies have demonstrated that cytotoxic morula cells, and not phagocytes, are the haemocytes responsible for the release of molecules recognised by anti-cytokine antibodies, we propose a new scenario in which morula cells act as sentinels, able to sense foreign molecules and release immunomodulatory factors which induce phagocytes to secrete lectins able to enhance phagocytosis by acting as bridges between foreign particles and phagocyte surfaces.  相似文献

A recurrent blastogenetic cycle characterizes colonies of the ascidian Botryllus schlosseri. This cycle starts when a new zooid generation opens its siphons and ends with take-over, when adult zooids cease filtering and are progressively resorbed and replaced by a new generation of buds, reaching functional maturity. During the generation change, massive apoptosis occurs in the colony, mainly in the tissues of old zooids. In the present study, we have investigated the behaviour of haemocytes during the colonial blastogenetic cycle, in terms of the occurrence of cell death and the expression of molecules involved in the induction of apoptosis. Our results indicate that, during take-over, caspase-3 activity in haemocyte lysates increases. In addition, about 20%–30% of haemocytes express phosphatidylserine on the outer leaflet of their plasma membrane, show DNA fragmentation and are immunopositive for caspase-3. Senescent cells are quickly ingested by circulating phagocytes that frequently, having once engulfed effete cells, in turn enter apoptosis. Dying cells and corpses are replaced by a new generation of cells that appear in the circulation during the generation change. This research was supported by the Italian M.I.U.R. (PRIN 2006)  相似文献

The study of leaf vascular systems is important in order to understand the fluid dynamics of water movement in leaves. Recent studies have shown how these systems can be involved in the performance of photosynthesis, which is linked to the density of the vascular network per unit of leaf area. The aim of the present study was to highlight the correlation between a leaf vein density (VD) and net photosynthetic rate (PN), which was undertaken using a digital camera, a stereoscopic microscope, and a light source. The proposed hypothesis was tested, for the first time, on the leaves of two cultivars of Vitis vinifera (L.). A significant difference was found between the VD of mature leaves of the two cultivars. VD was also significantly correlated with the maximum leaf PN. These findings support the hypothesis that the vascular system of grape leaves can be correlated with leaf photosynthesis performance.  相似文献

This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of routine systems (Vitek2 cards AST-N022 and AST-N026; Kirby Bauer; Etest) for susceptibility testing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to piperacillin and piperacillin-tazobactam. Vitek2 (card AST-N022) showed the worst performance; the other three methods (Vitek2 card AST-N026, Kirby-Bauer and E-test) performed comparably but never fulfilled the minimal standard proposed by FDA.  相似文献

Haematological features were compared between diploid and triploid specimens of the ray-finned fish Umbrina cirrosa. No significant differences between diploids and triploids were reported in haematocrit and total haemoglobin concentration, but erythrocytes and thrombocytes were significantly greater in size in triploids. Glycaemia was significantly lower in diploids, whereas triploid erythrocytes were more resistant to osmotic stress. In triploids, a greater fraction of leukocytes was positive for alkaline phosphatase activity, when stimulated with Bacillus clausii spores, otherwise no significant increase of oxygen consumption was observed in triploid leukocytes after stimulation, based on assays for superoxide anions. Triploids were characterized by a lower concentration of circulating blood cells with a lower surface/volume ratio when compared with diploids. These features may lead to a general disadvantage of triploids in withstanding stress conditions: a situation that needs to be taken into account in aquaculture practice.  相似文献

Colonies of the ascidian Botryllus schlosseri undergo recurrent generation changes in which adult zooids are gradually resorbed and replaced by new blastogenic generations. During these periods, known as take-over phases, programmed cell death, which, on the basis of morphological analysis is ascribed to apoptosis, occurs widely in zooid tissues. In the present report, we re-investigate cell death during the take-over process. Results confirm the occurrence of diffuse apoptosis, as evidenced by chromatin condensation, positivity to the TUNEL reaction and expression of phosphatidylserine on the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane. Apoptosis also occurs among haemocytes, and senescent blood cells are actively recognised and ingested by circulating professional phagocytes. Both phosphatidylserine and CD36, a component of the thrombospondin receptor, are involved in the recognition of apoptotic haemocytes, which fosters the idea that fundamental recognition mechanisms are well conserved throughout chordate evolution.  相似文献

Phagocytes of the compound ascidian Botryllus schlosseri are capable of constitutive macropinocytosis (MP) at sites of membrane ruffling along the leading edge. This gives rise to the formation of initially irregular vesicles which then move to the inside of the cells and acquire a more regular morphology. Both phagocyte spreading and MP are enhanced by the recognition of molecules containing the sequence Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD): this suggests that, as in mammals, integrin activation is involved in the induction of both cell spreading and endocytosis. The occurrence of MP is associated with increased oxygen consumption and a rise in the production of superoxide anion, as indicated by nitroblue tetrazolium reduction, and ATP, as indicated by increased cytochrome oxidase activity. On the whole, our results indicate the conservation of common mechanisms of MP induction throughout the Chordate phylum.  相似文献
