Presynaptic alteration of [3H]GABA transport in hippocampus by amygdala kindling. 1987

I Chaudieu, and G Rondouin, and M Chicheportiche, and R Chicheportiche

gamma-Amino[2,3-3H]butyric acid ([3H]GABA) transport was investigated in hippocampal synaptosomes prepared from amygdala kindled rats. Kindling enhanced [3H]GABA uptake by 10-20%, while the Km of uptake and the kinetics of the release were unchanged. The dose response curve of the inhibition of [3H]GABA uptake by veratridine was altered by kindling: the K0.5 of inhibition and the Hill number increased and the curve became biphasic after a long period of stimulations. This effect was interpreted in terms of a modification of the functioning of the presynaptic fast Na+ channels which initially become more resistant to depolarization. In the long term, it appears that new Na+ channels develop that are more sensitive to the action of veratridine.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007696 Kindling, Neurologic The repeated weak excitation of brain structures, that progressively increases sensitivity to the same stimulation. Over time, this can lower the threshold required to trigger seizures. Kindlings, Neurologic,Neurologic Kindling,Neurologic Kindlings
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008297 Male Males
D008564 Membrane Potentials The voltage differences across a membrane. For cellular membranes they are computed by subtracting the voltage measured outside the membrane from the voltage measured inside the membrane. They result from differences of inside versus outside concentration of potassium, sodium, chloride, and other ions across cells' or ORGANELLES membranes. For excitable cells, the resting membrane potentials range between -30 and -100 millivolts. Physical, chemical, or electrical stimuli can make a membrane potential more negative (hyperpolarization), or less negative (depolarization).

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
