Abstract

1. Currents activated by glutamate receptor (GluR) agonists were recorded from outside-out patches isolated from the soma of visually identified pyramidal neurones of the CA3 and CA1 region of rat hippocampal slices. alpha-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA), L-glutamate (L-Glu), and kainate (KA) were delivered either by bath application through perfusion of the recording chamber or by rapid application via a piezo-driven two-barrelled fast application system. 2. Bath application of each of the three agonists activated inward currents in all patches (n = 134) at holding potentials of -50 or -60 mV. The current amplitude increased in size between 3 to 30 microM-AMPA and 100 microM to 1 mM-KA. With this slow mode of bath application, the responses showed no apparent desensitization even at saturating concentrations of AMPA (30 microM) and KA (1 mM). 3. The ratio of currents activated by 30 microM-AMPA and 300 microM-KA showed a characteristic difference between CA3 and CA1 neurones. The ratio was 0.242 +/- 0.028 (mean +/- S.E.M., n = 16) for CA3 cell patches and 0.097 +/- 0.012 (n = 8) for CA1 cell patches indicating that GluRs in the two cell populations are different. 4. The steady-state current-voltage relations (I-Vs) for AMPA- and KA-activated currents showed pronounced outward rectification for both cell types (when the main cations are Na+ in the bath and Cs+ in the pipette solution). The current reversed close to 0 mV and the ratio of chord conduct…

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The current amplitudes showed a supralinear dependence on radiation power, with a power exponent of 2.5 ± 0.6 (mean ± s.d., n = 7).

    “The current amplitudes showed a supralinear (power exponent, 2.5 ± 0.6, mean ± s.d., n = 7) dependence on the radiation power, as predicted (Fig. 1i) both by the two-photon excitation30 of MNI-glutamate and by the cooperativity (1.2–1.7) of glutamate binding to AMPA receptors31 (2pEPSCs were CNQX (6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline)-sensitive).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
