Journal ArticleDOI

Calcium and endocannabinoids in the modulation of inhibitory synaptic transmission

TL;DR: Both postsynaptic and presynaptic mechanisms mediating changes in synaptic strength will be examined, and particular attention will be devoted to phenomena of retrograde signaling and the recently discovered role, played by the endocannabinoid system in retrograde synaptic modulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation and characterization of an alpha 2-type zebrafish glycine receptor subunit.

TL;DR: Analysis of messenger RNA revealed that alphaZ2 is specifically expressed in adult brain tissue and present in both adult and embryonic zebrafish, contributing to the characterization of the diversity of glycine receptor isoforms in vertebrates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of potassium conductance in the cellular membrane at early embryogenesis.

TL;DR: It is proposed that oscillations of the resting potential during the cell-cleavage cycle arise due to modulation of SA channel sensitivity to stretch through cAMP-dependent phosphorylation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of spontaneous network activity in neonatal hippocampal slices by energy substrates is not correlated with intracellular acidification.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of complementary energy substrates (CES) on the neuronal properties governing excitability in neonatal brain slices, and found that the effect is not caused by a subtle intracellular acidification induced by these compounds, but by modulation of neuronal energy homeostasis.
