Journal ArticleDOI
Ictal Epileptiform Activity Is Facilitated by Hippocampal GABAA Receptor-Mediated Oscillations
TL;DR: It is concluded that under epileptogenic conditions, γ band oscillations arise from GABAAergic depolarizations and that this activity may lead to the generation of ictal discharges.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cholinergic Interneurons Control the Excitatory Input to the Striatum
Pavel Pakhotin,Enrico Bracci +1 more
TL;DR: Results show that a single spike in a cholinergic interneuron exerts a fast and powerful inhibitory control over the glutamatergic input to striatal neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dopamine excites fast-spiking interneurons in the striatum.
TL;DR: Ex vivo results show that endogenous dopamine exerts a dual excitatory action on FS interneurons, by directly depolarizing them (through D1-like receptors) and by reducing their synaptic inhibition (through presynaptic D2- like receptors).
Journal ArticleDOI
Spontaneous rhythmic bursts induced by pharmacological block of inhibition in lumbar motoneurons of the neonatal rat spinal cord
TL;DR: Results show that in the rat spinal cord highly patterned motor output can occur despite block of inhibition, and Rhythmic bursts appear to result from large, synchronous synaptic events generated by a network modulated by 5-HT and highly sensitive to variations in efficacy of glutamatergic synaptic transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Localization of Rhythmogenic Networks Responsible for Spontaneous Bursts Induced by Strychnine and Bicuculline in the Rat Isolated Spinal Cord
TL;DR: The results suggest that bursting induced by strychnine and bicuculline apparently relied on distinct mechanisms for burst triggering and intraburst structure, which required a relatively smaller neuronal network that was confined to a ventral quadrant.
