Abstract

NMDA receptors (NMDARs) are highly calcium-permeable and are negatively regulated by intracellular calcium during prolonged exposure to agonist. We have investigated whether calcium-mediated feedback occurs during transient exposure to glutamate during single synaptic events. Examination of miniature EPSCs (mEPSCs) indicated that the decay kinetics of the NMDAR component was markedly slowed by the intracellular perfusion of exogenous calcium buffers (BAPTA or Fluo-3). In contrast, the AMPA receptor component of the miniature EPSC was unaffected. Slow on-rate calcium buffers, such as EGTA, did not alter kinetics of the NMDAR component of the mEPSC. Addition of exogenous fast calcium buffers did not slow the decay kinetics of glutamate-evoked currents mediated by NR1/NR2A heteromers expressed in HEK 293 cells, suggesting that the effect we observed in neurons may be specific to processes associated with synaptically activated receptors. Trial-to-trial amplitude variability of miniature calcium transients mediated by NMDARs increased with the injection of exogenous calcium buffers, suggesting that the amplitude of synaptic calcium transients are maintained at a rather constant level by a calcium-mediated feedback mechanism.

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.
