Acetylcholine Release In Mouse Hippocampal Ca1 Preferentially Activates Inhibitory-Selective Interneurons Via Α4Β2* Nicotinic Receptor Activation, L. Andrew Bell, Karen A. Bell, A. Rory Mcquiston
Acetylcholine Release In Mouse Hippocampal Ca1 Preferentially Activates Inhibitory-Selective Interneurons Via Α4Β2* Nicotinic Receptor Activation, L. Andrew Bell, Karen A. Bell, A. Rory Mcquiston
Anatomy and Neurobiology Publications
Acetylcholine (ACh) release onto nicotinic receptors directly activates subsets of inhibitory interneurons in hippocampal CA1. However, the specific interneurons activated and their effect on the hippocampal network is not completely understood. Therefore, we investigated subsets of hippocampal CA1 interneurons that respond to ACh release through the activation of nicotinic receptors and the potential downstream effects this may have on hippocampal CA1 network function. ACh was optogenetically released in mouse hippocampal slices by expressing the excitatory optogenetic protein oChIEF-tdTomato in medial septum/diagonal band of Broca cholinergic neurons using Cre recombinase-dependent adeno-associated viral mediated transfection. The actions of optogenetically released ACh were …
