Figure Legend Snippet: EPSCs after stimulation of the SCE and FCE.A, Type I fiber. Twin pulse stimulation of the SCE generating two EPSCs, the first by release of one transmitter quantum, the second of three quanta caused by facilitation.Asterisks in A and C mark spontaneously released single quanta. B, EPSCs after twin pulse stimulation of the FCE. The amplitude of the second EPSC is typically smaller than that of the first in type I fibers because of depression of release. C, Direct stimulation of a release bouton of FCE in a type IV fiber with a single pulse through the macropatch electrode. D, Stimulation and recording paradigm for the SCE and FCE. Both axons were stimulated selectively, as shown in A and B, but the FCE usually for a shorter period than the SCE. Only the EPSC amplitudes generated by the second of the twin pulses are plotted. In the experiment shown, 20 min was allowed for equilibration after 10−8m ω-AgaTX application before resuming stimulation and recording. The SCE was stimulated first. The short equilibration time was chosen to show the gradual development of the toxin effect.

Article Snippet: Two a-bungarotoxin-sensitive nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptor subtypes in neurons of the American cockroach have been identified as desensitizing (nAChD) and selectively inhibitable with 100 nM imidacloprid, and non-desensitizing (nAChN) and selectively inhibitable with 100 pM methyllycaconitine.. In this paper, the single-electrode voltage-clamp technique was used to measure concentration-response relations for the action of ACh and five antagonists on pharmacologically separated nAChD and nAChN receptors of acutely dissociated neurons from thoracic ganglia of the American cockroach.. A dual bath and U-tube perfusion system was used to achieve rapid application of ACh in the continued presence of antagonists, which was essential to accurately measure inhibition by rapidly-reversible antagonists.

Article Snippet: The L-type voltage-gated calcium channel Cav1.2 and the calcium-activated CaM kinase cascade both regulate excitation transcription coupling in the brain.. CaM kinase is known to associate with the C terminus of Cav1.2 in a region called the PreIQ-IQ domain, which also binds multiple calmodulin molecules.. Here we identify and characterize a second CaMKII binding site in the N terminus of Cav1.2 that is formed by a stretch of four amino residues (cysteine–isoleucine–serine–isoleucine) and which regulates channel expression and function.

Article Snippet: BACKGROUND: Insect desensitizing nicotinic acetylcholine (nAChD) receptors are desensitized by low concentrations of agonists, including neonicotinoid insecticides, but are essentially insensitive to spinosyns, while non-desensitizing nicotinic acetylcholine (nAChN) receptors are selectively activated by spinosyns and relatively insensitive to neonicotinoids.. RESULTS: The single-electrode voltage-clamp technique was used to measure the actions of newer nicotinic insecticides dinotefuran, sulfoxaflor, triflumezopyrim, spinetoram and GS-ω/k-hexatoxin-Hv1a on cockroach neuronal nAChD and nAChN currents.. Like imidacloprid and clothianidin, newer orthosteric nicotinic agonist insecticides dinotefuran and sulfoxaflor act by desensitizing nAChD receptors.
