2. 1. Neocortical layer 2/3 microcircuits

   Author : Carl Holmgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Neocortical microcircuit; layer 2 3; pyramidal cell; FSN interneuron; retrograde signaling; VGLUT3; spike-timing dependent plasticity; LTP; LTD.;

   Abstract : Pairs of interconnected neurons form elementary information processing units within neocortical microcircuits. Pyramidal cells within these microcircuits receive synaptic input, both from their connected partners, and from more distant cortical and sub-cortical regions. Consequently, they require a means to identify relevant synaptic signals. READ MORE

4. 2. Immunocytochemical studies of excitatory amino acid neurotransmitters and transporters in the spinal cord and nucleus submedius

   Author : Stefan Persson; Neurofysiologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neuropsykologi; neurophysiology; neuropsychology; Neurology; VGLUT2; VGLUT1; pain; somatosensory; thalamus; immunogold; glutamate; aspartate; dorsal horn; excitatory amino acids; spinal cord; neurofysiologi; Neurologi;

   Abstract : The amino acid glutamate is today regarded as the main fast excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and a large body of evidence support that glutamate serves as a neurotransmitter in primary afferent terminals in the spinal cord. Previous evidence also suggests that the closely related amino acid aspartate may serve a similar role in some primary afferent terminals. READ MORE
