Tetanic stimulation-induced changes in [3H]glutamate binding and uptake in rat hippocampus. 1986

J W Goh, and M Ho-Asjoe, and B R Sastry

Tetanus-induced (400 Hz, 200 pulses) long-lasting potentiation of the stratum radiatum-evoked CA1 population spike in hippocampal slices is not accompanied by any change in Na+-independent [3H]glutamate binding sites. Homosynaptic depression that occurs subsequent to either a low frequency tetanus (20 Hz, 600 pulses) or a transient exposure to Cl(-)-free (containing NO3-) medium is associated with an elevation in the amino acid binding. [3H]Glutamate uptake into slices was decreased following a high frequency (400 Hz, 200 pulses) tetanus but in the majority of cases was increased following a low frequency (20 Hz, 600 pulses) tetanus to stratum radiatum. When the high frequency tetanus was given in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, there was a further reduction in [3H]glutamate uptake.

D006624	Hippocampus	A curved elevation of GRAY MATTER extending the entire length of the floor of the TEMPORAL HORN of the LATERAL VENTRICLE (see also TEMPORAL LOBE). The hippocampus proper, subiculum, and DENTATE GYRUS constitute the hippocampal formation. Sometimes authors include the ENTORHINAL CORTEX in the hippocampal formation.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013569	Synapses	Specialized junctions at which a neuron communicates with a target cell. At classical synapses, a neuron's presynaptic terminal releases a chemical transmitter stored in synaptic vesicles which diffuses across a narrow synaptic cleft and activates receptors on the postsynaptic membrane of the target cell. The target may be a dendrite, cell body, or axon of another neuron, or a specialized region of a muscle or secretory cell. Neurons may also communicate via direct electrical coupling with ELECTRICAL SYNAPSES. Several other non-synaptic chemical or electric signal transmitting processes occur via extracellular mediated interactions.	Synapse
