Abstract

A‐type potassium channels regulate neuronal firing frequency and the back‐propagation of action potentials (APs) into dendrites of hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurones. Recent molecular cloning studies have found several families of voltage‐gated K+ channel genes expressed in the mammalian brain. At present, information regarding the relationship between the protein products of these genes and the various neuronal functions performed by voltage‐gated K+ channels is lacking. Here we used a combination of molecular, electrophysiological and imaging techniques to show that one such gene, Kv4.2, controls AP half‐width, frequency‐dependent AP broadening and dendritic action potential propagation. Using a modified Sindbis virus, we expressed either the enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP)‐tagged Kv4.2 or an EGFP‐tagged dominant negative mutant of Kv4.2 (Kv4.2g W362F) in CA1 pyramidal neurones of organotypic slice cultures. Neurones expressing Kv4.2g W362F displayed broader action potentials with an increase in frequency‐dependent AP broadening during a train compared with control neurones. In addition, Ca 2+ imaging of Kv4.2g W362F expressing dendrites revealed enhanced AP back‐propagation compared to control neurones. Conversely, neurones expressing an increased A‐type current through overexpression of Kv4.2 displayed narrower APs with less frequency dependent broadening and decreased dendritic propagation. These results point to Kv4.2 as the major contributor to the A‐current in hippocampal CA1 neurones and suggest a prominent role for Kv4.2 in regulating AP shape and dendritic signalling. As Ca 2+ influx occurs primarily during AP repolarization, Kv4.2 activity can regulate cellular processes involving Ca 2+‐dependent second messenger cascades such as gene expression and synaptic plasticity.

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.
