Abstract Sequenced behaviours, including locomotion, reaching and vocalization, are patterned differently in different contexts, enabling animals to adjust their environments. How contextual information shapes neural activity flexibly alter the patterning of actions is not fully understood. Previous work has indicated that this could be achieved via parallel motor circuits, with differing sensitivities context 1,2 . Here we demonstrate a single pathway operates two regimes dependent on...
Oscillatory networks often include neurons with membrane potential resonance, exhibiting a peak in the voltage amplitude as function of current input at nonzero (resonance) frequency ( f res ). Although has been correlated to network net ) variety systems, causal relationship between two not established. We examine hypothesis that combinations biophysical parameters shift , without changing other attributes impedance profile, also same direction. test this hypothesis, computationally and...
Multiple neuromodulators act in concert to shape the properties of neural circuits. Different usually activate distinct receptors but can have overlapping targets. Therefore, circuit output depends on neuromodulator interactions at shared targets, a poorly understood process. We explored quantitative rules co-modulation two principal targets neuromodulation: synapses and voltage-gated ionic currents. In stomatogastric ganglion male crab Cancer borealis , neuropeptides proctolin (Proc)...
ABSTRACT Many sequenced behaviors, including locomotion, reaching, and vocalization, are patterned differently in different contexts, enabling animals to adjust their current environments. However, how contextual information shapes neural activity flexibly alter the patterning of actions is not yet understood. Prior work indicates such flexibility could be achieved via parallel motor circuits, with differing sensitivities sensory context [1, 2, 3]; instead we demonstrate here a single...
Neurons in oscillatory networks often exhibit membrane potential resonance, a peak impedance at non-zero input frequency. In electrically coupled networks, the coupling coefficient (the ratio of post- and prejunctional voltage responses) could also show resonance. Such resonance may emerge from interaction between current properties neurons, but this relationship has not been clearly described. Additionally, it is unknown if gap-junction mediated electrical conductance have frequency...
The present study was conducted to investigate the antinociceptive action of relationship between Herba Epimedium (HE) and 5-HT1A receptor, 5-HT2A receptor. We used hot-plate method writhing assay in mice by intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection observed analgesic effect HE. Furthermore, through i.c.v. injection, receptor partial agonist Buspirone, antagonist Propranolol, adrenaline β 1-receptor selective blocking agent Metoprolol, hydrochloride DOI Ketanserin were used, and, 5 min...
Abstract Different neuromodulators usually activate distinct receptors but can have overlapping targets. Consequently, circuit output depends on neuromodulator interactions at shared targets, a poorly understood process. We explored quantitative rules of co-modulation two principal targets: voltage-gated and synaptic ionic currents. In the stomatogastric ganglion crab Cancer borealis , neuropeptides proctolin CCAP modulate synapses pyloric circuit, current ( I MI ) in multiple neurons....
