In temporal lobe epilepsy, sprouting of hippocampal mossy fiber axons onto dentate granule cell dendrites creates a recurrent excitatory network. However, unlike mossy fibers projecting to CA3, sprouted mossy fiber synapses depress upon repetitive activation. Thus, despite their proximal location, relatively large presynaptic terminals, and ability to excite target neurons, the impact of sprouted mossy fiber synapses on hippocampal hyperexcitability is unclear. We find that despite their short-term depression, single episodes of sprouted mossy fiber activation in hippocampal slices initiated bursts of recurrent polysynaptic excitation. Consistent with a contribution to network hyperexcitability, optogenetic activation of sprouted mossy fibers reliably triggered action potential firing in postsynaptic dentate granule cells after single light pulses. This pattern resulted in a shift in network recruitment dynamics to an “early detonation” mode and an increased probability of release compared with mossy fiber synapses in CA3. A lack of tonic adenosine-mediated inhibition contributed to the higher probability of glutamate release, thus facilitating reverberant circuit activity.

In the epileptic hippocampus, newly sprouted mossy fibers are considered to form recurrent excitatory connections to granule cells in the dentate gyrus and thereby increase seizure susceptibility. To study the effects of mossy fiber sprouting on neural activity in individual lamellae of the dentate gyrus, we used high-speed optical recording to record signals from voltage-sensitive dye in hippocampal slices prepared from kainate-treated epileptic rats (KA rats). In 14 of 24 slices from KA rats, hilar stimulation evoked a large depolarization in almost the entire molecular layer in which granule cell apical dendrites are located. The signals were identified as postsynaptic responses because of their dependence on extracellular Ca2+. The depolarization amplitude was largest in the inner molecular layer (the target area of sprouted mossy fibers) and declined with increasing distance from the granule cell layer. In the inner molecular layer, a good correlation was obtained between depolarization size and the density of mossy fiber terminals detected by Timm staining methods. Blockade of GABAergic inhibition by bicuculline enlarged the depolarization in granule cell dendrites. Our data indicate that mossy fiber sprouting results in a large and prolonged synaptic depolarization in an extensive dendritic area and that the enhanced GABAergic inhibition partly masks the synaptic depolarization. However, despite the large dendritic excitation induced by the sprouted mossy fibers, seizurelike activity of granule cells was never observed, even when GABAergic inhibition was blocked. Therefore, mossy fiber sprouting may not play a critical role in epileptogenesis.

ABSTRACT Infection of neonatal rats with Borna disease virus results in a characteristic behavioral syndrome and apoptosis of subsets of neurons in the hippocampus, cerebellum, and cortex (neonatal Borna disease [NBD]). In the NBD rat hippocampus, dentate gyrus granule cells progressively degenerate. Apoptotic loss of granule cells in NBD is associated with accumulation of zinc in degenerating neurons and reduced zinc in granule cell mossy fibers. Excess zinc can trigger poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) activation, and PARP-1 activation can mediate neuronal death. Here, we evaluate hippocampal PARP-1 mRNA and protein expression levels, activation, and cleavage, as well as apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) nuclear translocation and executioner caspase 3 activation, in NBD rats. PARP-1 mRNA and protein levels were increased in NBD hippocampi. PARP-1 expression and activity were increased in granule cell neurons and glia with enhanced ribosylation of proteins, including PARP-1 itself. In contrast, levels of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase mRNA were decreased in NBD hippocampi. PARP-1 cleavage and AIF expression were also increased in astrocytes in NBD hippocampi. Levels of activated caspase 3 protein were increased in NBD hippocampi and localized to nuclei, mossy fibers, and dendrites of granule cell neurons. These results implicate aberrant zinc homeostasis, PARP-1, and caspase 3 activation as contributing factors in hippocampal neurodegeneration in NBD.

Recurrent mossy fiber pathway in rat dentate gyrus: synaptic currents evoked in presence and absence of seizure-induced growth. A common feature of temporal lobe epilepsy and of animal models of epilepsy is the growth of hippocampal mossy fibers into the dentate molecular layer, where at least some of them innervate granule cells. Because the mossy fibers are axons of granule cells, the recurrent mossy fiber pathway provides monosynaptic excitatory feedback to these neurons that could facilitate seizure discharge. We used the pilocarpine model of temporal lobe epilepsy to study the synaptic responses evoked by activating this pathway. Whole cell patch-clamp recording demonstrated that antidromic stimulation of the mossy fibers evoked an excitatory postsynaptic current (EPSC) in ∼74% of granule cells from rats that had survived >10 wk after pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus. Recurrent mossy fiber growth was demonstrated with the Timm stain in all instances. In contrast, antidromic stimulation of the mossy fibers evoked an EPSC in only 5% of granule cells studied 4–6 days after status epilepticus, before recurrent mossy fiber growth became detectable. Notably, antidromic mossy fiber stimulation also evoked an EPSC in many granule cells from control rats. Clusters of mossy fiber-like Timm staining normally were present in the inner third of the dentate molecular layer at the level of the hippocampal formation from which slices were prepared, and several considerations suggested that the recorded EPSCs depended mainly on activation of recurrent mossy fibers rather than associational fibers. In both status epilepticus and control groups, the antidromically evoked EPSC was glutamatergic and involved the activation of both AMPA/kainate and N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors. EPSCs recorded in granule cells from rats with recurrent mossy fiber growth differed in three respects from those recorded in control granule cells: they were much more frequently evoked, a number of them were unusually large, and the NMDA component of the response was generally much more prominent. In contrast to the antidromically evoked EPSC, the EPSC evoked by stimulation of the perforant path appeared to be unaffected by a prior episode of status epilepticus. These results support the hypothesis that recurrent mossy fiber growth and synapse formation increases the excitatory drive to dentate granule cells and thus facilitates repetitive synchronous discharge. Activation of NMDA receptors in the recurrent pathway may contribute to seizure propagation under depolarizing conditions. Mossy fiber-granule cell synapses also are present in normal rats, where they may contribute to repetitive granule cell discharge in regions of the dentate gyrus where their numbers are significant.

Dentate granule neurons give rise to some of the smallest unmyelinated fibers in the mammalian CNS, the hippocampal mossy fibers. These neurons are also key regulators of physiological and pathophysiological information flow through the hippocampus. We took a comparative approach to studying mossy fiber action potential initiation and propagation in hippocampal slices from juvenile rats. Dentate granule neurons exhibited axonal action potential initiation significantly more proximal than CA3 pyramidal neurons. This conclusion was suggested by phase plot analysis of somatic action potentials and by local tetrodotoxin application to the axon and somatodendritic compartments. This conclusion was also verified by immunostaining for voltage-gated sodium channel alpha subunits and by direct dual soma/axonal recordings. Dentate neurons exhibited a significantly higher action potential threshold and slower axonal conduction velocity than CA3 neurons. We conclude that while the electrotonically proximal axon location of action potential initiation allows granule neurons to sensitively detect and integrate synaptic inputs, the neurons are sluggish to initiate and propagate an action potential.

Hippocampal mossy fiber axons simultaneously activate CA3 pyramidal cells and stratum lucidum interneurons (SLINs), the latter providing feedforward inhibition to control CA3 pyramidal cell excitability. Filopodial extensions of giant boutons of mossy fibers provide excitatory synaptic input to the SLIN. These filopodia undergo extraordinary structural plasticity causally linked to execution of memory tasks, leading us to seek the mechanisms by which activity regulates these synapses. High-frequency stimulation of the mossy fibers induces long-term depression (LTD) of their calcium-permeable AMPA receptor synapses with SLINs; previous work localized the site of induction to be postsynaptic and the site of expression to be presynaptic. Yet, the underlying signaling events and the identity of the retrograde signal are incompletely understood. We used whole cell recordings of SLINs in hippocampal slices from wild-type and mutant mice to explore the mechanisms. Genetic and pharmacologic perturbations revealed a requirement for both the receptor tyrosine kinase TrkB and its agonist, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), for induction of LTD. Inclusion of inhibitors of Trk receptor kinase and PLC in the patch pipette prevented LTD. Endocannabinoid receptor antagonists and genetic deletion of the CB1 receptor prevented LTD. We propose a model whereby release of BDNF from mossy fiber filopodia activates TrkB and PLCγ1 signaling postsynaptically within SLINs, triggering synthesis and release of an endocannabinoid that serves as a retrograde signal, culminating in reduced glutamate release. Insights into the signaling pathways by which activity modifies function of these synapses will facilitate an understanding of their contribution to the local circuit and behavioral consequences of hippocampal granule cell activity. NEW & NOTEWORTHY We investigated signaling mechanisms underlying plasticity of the hippocampal mossy fiber filopodial synapse with interneurons in stratum lucidum. High-frequency stimulation of the mossy fibers induces long-term depression of this synapse. Our findings are consistent with a model in which brain-derived neurotrophic factor released from filopodia activates TrkB of a stratum lucidum interneuron; the ensuing activation of PLCγ1 induces synthesis of an endocannabinoid, which provides a retrograde signal leading to reduced release of glutamate presynaptically.

Sekino, Yuko, Kunihiko Obata, Manabu Tanifuji, Makoto Mizuno, and Jin Murayama. Delayed signal propagation via CA2 in rat hippocampal slices revealed by optical recording. J. Neurophysiol. 78: 1662–1668, 1997. Signal propagation from mossy fibers to CA1 neurons was investigated in rat hippocampal slices by a combination of electrical and optical recordings. The slices were prepared by oblique sectioning of the middle part of the hippocampus to preserve fiber connections. The mossy fibers were stimulated to induce population spikes (PSs) and excitatory postsynaptic potentials in the middle part of the CA1 region. Latencies of maximal PSs in CA1 varied widely among slices; they ranged from 7 to 13.5 ms, with two maxima at 9 and 11.5 ms. The fastest PSs probably are evoked by the Schaffer collaterals that connect the CA3 and CA1 regions in the well-known trisynaptic circuit. However, the slower PSs suggest the existence of additional delayed inputs. To determine the source of the delayed input, slices were stained with a voltage-sensitive dye, RH482, and the optical signals relevant to membrane potential changes were detected by a high-resolution optical imaging system. Optical recording of responses to mossy fiber stimulation indicated two distinct types of signal propagation from CA3 to CA1. In preparations evincing the fast type of propagation, signals spread to CA1 within 7.2 ms after the mossy fiber stimulation. During such propagation, activity flowed directly from CA3 to the stratum radiatum of CA1. Other preparations illustrated slow signal propagation, in which optical signals were generated in CA2 before spreading to CA1. During such slow signal transmission, activity persisted in CA2 and its surrounding area for 3 ms before propagating to the strata radiatum and oriens in CA1. In such cases, CA1 activity was detected within 10.8 ms of mossy fiber stimulation. In some slices, a mixture of the fast and slow propagation patterns was observed, indicating that these two transmission modes can coexist. Our data reveal that CA2 neurons can transmit delayed excitatory signals to CA1 neurons. We therefore conclude that consideration of electrical signal propagation through the hippocampus should include flow through the CA2 region in addition to the traditional dentate gyrus–CA3–CA1 trisynaptic circuit.

Monosynaptic GABAergic Signaling from Dentate to CA3 with a Pharmacological and Physiological Profile Typical of Mossy Fiber Synapses Walker MC, Ruiz A, Kullmann DM Neuron 2001;29:703–715 Mossy fibers are the sole excitatory projection from dentate gyrus granule cells to the hippocampus, where they release glutamate, dynorphin, and zinc. In addition, mossy fiber terminals show intense immunoreactivity for the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA. Fast inhibitory transmission at mossy fiber synapses, however, has not previously been reported. Here, we show that electrical or chemical stimuli that recruit dentate granule cells elicit monosynaptic GABA(A) receptor-mediated synaptic signals in CA3 pyramidal neurons. These inhibitory signals satisfy the criteria that distinguish mossy fiber-CA3 synapses: high sensitivity to metabotropic glutamate receptor agonists, facilitation during repetitive stimulation, and NMDA receptor-independent long-term potentiation. GABAergic transmission from the dentate gyrus to CA3 has major implications not only for information flow into the hippocampus but also for developmental and pathological processes involving the hippocampus. Seizures Induce Simultaneous GABAergic and Glutamatergic Transmission in the Dentate Gyrus-CA3 System Gutierrez R J Neurophysiol 2000;84:3088–3090 Monosynaptic and polysynaptic responses of CA3 pyramidal cells (PC) to stimulation of the dentate gyrus (DG) are normally blocked by glutamate receptor antagonists (GluRAs). However, after kindled seizures, GluRAs block the monosynaptic excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) and isolate a monosynaptic inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP), suggesting that mossy fibers release GABA. However, kindling epilepsy induces neuronal sprouting, which can underlie this fast inhibitory response. To explore this possibility, the synaptic responses of PC to DG stimulation were analyzed in kindled epileptic rats, with and without seizures, and in nonepileptic rats, immediately after a single pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced seizure, in which sprouting is unlikely to have occurred. Excitatory and inhibitory synaptic responses of PC to DG stimulation were blocked by GluRAs in control cells and in cells from kindled nonseizing rats, confirming that inhibitory potentials are disynaptically mediated. However, a fast IPSP could be evoked in kindled epileptic rats and in nonepileptic rats after a single PTZ-induced seizure. The same response was induced after rekindling the epileptic nonseizing rats. This IPSP has an onset latency that parallels that of the control EPSP and is not altered under low Ca(2+) medium or halothane perfusion. In addition, it was reversibly depressed by L(+)-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyric acid (L-AP4), which is known to inhibit transmitter release from mossy fibers. These results demonstrate that seizures, and not the synaptic rearrangement due to an underlying epileptic state, induce the emergence of fast inhibition in the DG-CA3 system, and suggest that the mossy fibers underlie this plastic change. Kindling Induces Transient Fast Inhibition in the Dentate Gyrus-CA3 Projection Gutierrez R, Heinemann U Eur J Neurosci 2001;13:1371–1379 The granule cells of the dentate gyrus (DG) send a strong glutamatergic projection, the mossy fibre tract, toward the hippocampal CA3 field, where it excites pyramidal cells and neighbouring inhibitory interneurons. Despite their excitatory nature, granule cells contain small amounts of GAD (glutamate decarboxylase), the main synthetic enzyme for the inhibitory transmitter GABA. Chronic temporal lobe epilepsy results in transient upregulation of GAD and GABA in granule cells, giving rise to the speculation that following overexcitation, mossy fibres exert an inhibitory effect by release of GABA. We therefore stimulated the DG and recorded synaptic potentials from CA3 pyramidal cells in brain slices from kindled and control rats. In both preparations, DG stimulation caused excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP)/inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP) sequences. These potentials could be completely blocked by glutamate receptor antagonists in control rats, while in the kindled rats, a bicuculline-sensitive fast IPSP remained, with an onset latency similar to that of the control EPSP. Interestingly, this IPSP disappeared 1 month after the last seizure. When synaptic responses were evoked by high-frequency stimulation, EPSPs in normal rats readily summate to evoke action potentials. In slices from kindled rats, a summation of IPSPs overrides that of the EPSPs and reduces the probability of evoking action potentials. Our data show for the first time that kindling induces functionally relevant activity-dependent expression of fast inhibition onto pyramidal cells, coming from the DG, that can limit CA3 excitation in a frequency-dependent manner. Vesicular GABA Transporter mRNA Expression in the Dentate Gyrus and in Mossy Fiber Synaptosomes Lamas M, Gomez-Lira G, Gutierrez R Brain Res Mol Brain Res 2001;93:209–214 In the normal granule cells of the dentate gyrus, glutamate and both gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) coexist. GAD expression is increased after seizures, and simultaneous glutamatergic and GABAergic neurotransmission from the mossy fibers to CA3 appears, supporting the hypothesis that GABA can be released from the mossy fibers. To sustain GABAergic neurotransmission, the amino acids for the presence and regulation of expression of the vesicular GABA transporter (VGAT) mRNA in the dentate gyrus and in mossy fiber synaptosomes of control and kindled rats. We found trace amounts of VGAT mRNA in the dentate gyrus and mossy fiber synaptosomes of control rats. In the dentate gyrus of kindled rats with several seizures and of control rats subject to one acute seizure, no changes were apparent either 1 or 24 h after the seizures. However, repetitive synaptic or antidromic activation of the granule cells in slices of control rats in vitro induces an activity-dependent enhancement of VGAT mRNA expression in the dentate. Surprisingly, in the mossy fiber synaptosomes of seizing rats, the levels of VGAT mRNA were significantly higher than in controls. These data show that the granule cells and their mossy fibers, besides containing machinery for the synthesis of GABA, also contain the elements that support its vesiculation. This further supports the notion that local synaptic molecular changes enable mossy fibers to release GABA in response to enhanced excitability.

In adulthood, mossy fibers (MFs), the axons of granule cells of the dentate gyrus (DG), release glutamate onto CA3 principal cells and interneurons. In contrast, during the first week of postnatal life MFs release -aminobutyric acid (GABA), which, at this early developmental stage exerts a depolarizing and excitatory action on targeted cells. The depolarizing action of GABA opens voltage-dependent calcium channels and NMDA receptors leading to calcium entry and activation of intracellular signaling pathways involved in several developmental processes, thus contributing to the refinement of neuronal connections and to the establishment of adult neuronal circuits. The release of GABA has been shown to be down regulated by several neurotransmitter receptors which would limit the enhanced excitability caused by the excitatory action of GABA. It is worth noting that the immature hippocampus exhibits spontaneous correlated activity, the so called giant depolarizing potentials or GDPs that act as coincident detector signals for enhancing synaptic activity, thus contributing to several developmental processes including synaptogenesis. GDPs render the immature hippocampus more prone to seizures. Here, I explored the molecular mechanisms underlying synaptic transmission and activity-dependent synaptic plasticity processes at immature GABAergic MF-CA3 synapses in wild-type rodents and in mice lacking the prion protein (Prnp0/0 mice).
In the first paper, I studied the functional role of kainate receptors (KARs) in regulating GABA release from MF terminals. Presynaptic KARs regulate synaptic transmission in several brain areas and play a central role in modulating glutamate release at adult MF-CA3 synapses. I found that functional presynaptic GluK1 receptors are present on MF terminals where they down regulate GABA release. Thus, application of DNQX or UBP 302, a selective antagonist for GluK1 receptors, strongly increased the amplitude of MF-GABAA-mediated postsynaptic currents (GPSCs). This effect was associated with a decrease in failure rate and increase in PPR, indicating a presynaptic type of action.
GluK1 receptors were found to be tonically activated by glutamate present in the extracellular space, since decreasing the extracellular concentration of glutamate with a glutamate scavenger system prevented their activation and mimicked the effects of KAR antagonists. The depressant effect of GluK1 on GABA release was dependent on pertussis toxin (PTx)-sensitive G protein-coupled kainate receptors since it was prevented when hippocampal slices were incubated in the presence of a solution containing PTx. This effect was presynaptic since application of UBP 302 to cells patched with an intracellular solution containing GDP S still potentiated synaptic responses. In addition, the depressant effect of GluK1 on GABA release was prevented by U73122, which selectively inhibits phospholipase C, downstream to G protein activation. Interestingly, U73122, enhanced the probability of GABA release, thus unveiling the ionotropic type of action of kainate receptors. In line with this, we found that GluK1 receptors enhanced MF excitability by directly depolarizing MF terminals via calcium-permeable cation channels. We also explored the possible involvement of
GluK1 in spike time-dependent (STD) plasticity and we found that GluK1 dynamically regulate the direction of STD-plasticity, since the pharmacological block of this receptor shifted spike-time dependent potentiation into depression. The mechanisms underlying STD-LTD at immature MF-CA3 synapses have been investigated in
detail in the second paper.
STD-plasticity is a Hebbian form of learning which consists in bi-directional modifications of synaptic strength according to the temporal order of pre and postsynaptic spiking. Interestingly, we found that at immature mossy fibers (MF)-CA3 synapses, STD-LTD occurs regardless of the temporal order of stimulation (pre versus post or viceversa). However, as already mentioned, while STD-LTD induced by positive pairing (pre before post) could be shifted into STD-LTP after blocking presynaptic GluK1 receptors, STD-LTD induced by negative pairing (post before pre) relied on the activation of CB1 receptors. At P3 but not at P21, endocannabinoids released by the
postsynaptic cell during spiking-induced membrane depolarization retrogradely activated CB1 receptors, probably expressed on MF terminals and persistently depressed GABA release in the rat hippocampus. Thus, bath application of selective CB1 receptor antagonists prevented STD-LTD.
Pharmacological tools allow identifying anandamide as the endogenous ligand responsible of activity-dependent depressant effect. To further assess whether STD-LTD is dependent on the activation of CB1 receptors, similar experiments were performed on WT-littermates and CB1-KO mice. While in WT mice the pairing protocol produced a persistent depression of MF-GPSCs as in rats, in CB1-KO mice failed to induce LTD. Consistent with these data, in situ hybridization experiments revealed detectable levels of CB1 mRNA in the granule cell layer of P3 but not of P21mice. These experiments strongly suggest that at immature MF-CA3 synapses STD-LTD is mediated by CB1 receptors, probably transiently expressed, during a critical time window, on MF
terminals.
In the third paper, I studied synaptic transmission and activity dependent synaptic plasticity at immature MF-CA3 synapses in mice devoid of the prion protein (Prnp0/0). The prion protein (PrPC) is a conserved glycoprotein widely expressed in the brain and involved in several neuronal processes including neurotransmission. If converted to a conformationally altered form, PrPSc can cause neurodegenerative diseases, such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans. Previous studies aimed at characterizing Prnp0/0 mice have revealed only mild behavioral changes, including an impaired
spatial learning, accompanied by electrophysiological and biochemical alterations. Interestingly, PrPC is developmentally regulated and in the hippocampus its expression parallels the maturation of MF. Here, we tested the hypothesis that at immature (P3-P7) MF-CA3 synapses, PrPC interferes with synaptic plasticity processes. To this aim, the rising phase of Giant Depolarizing Potentials (GDPs), a hallmark of developmental networks, was used to stimulate granule cells in the dentate gyrus in such a way that GDPs were coincident with afferent inputs. In WT animals, the pairing procedure induced a persistent increase in amplitude of MF-GPSCs. In contrast, in Prnp0/0 mice, the same protocol produced a long-term depression (LTD). LTP was postsynaptic in origin and required the activation of cAMP-dependent PKA signaling while LTD was presynaptic and was reliant on G protein-coupled GluK1 receptor and protein lipase C downstream to G protein activation.
In addition, at emerging CA3-CA1 synapses of PrPC-deficient mice, stimulation of Schaffer collateral failed to induce LTP, known to be PKA-dependent. Finally, we also found that LTD in Prnp0/0 mice was mediated by GluK1 receptors, since UBP 302 blocked its induction. These data suggest that in the immature hippocampus PrPC controls the direction of synaptic plasticity.

Synapsen sind die spezialisierten subzellulären Kontaktstellen im Gehirn, die die Kommunikation zwischen einzelnen Nervenzellen, den Neuronen, auf elektrischem oder chemischem Weg ermöglichen. Anatomisch und physiologisch sind Synapsen jedoch erstaunlich divers, unter anderem abhängig von der untersuchten Hirnregion, der Identität der prä- und postsynaptischen Neurone, den präsynaptisch ausgeschütteten Neurotransmittern und postsynaptischen Rezeptorsystemen. Generell kann die Effektivität oder Stärke synaptischer Übertragung durch unterschiedliche Mechanismen beeinflusst werden. Hier werden nun Mechanismen, Ausprägung und funktionelle Relevanz von Neuromodulation, Kurzzeit- und Langzeit-Plastizität der Stärke der synaptischen Übertragung an der hippokampalen Moosfaser-Synapse erarbeitet. Die vorgestellten Daten konnten mit Hilfe von in vitro experimentellen Ansätzen an der hippokampalen Formation von Mäusen gewonnen werden und durch Analysen und Simulationen aus dem Bereich der theoretischen Biologie bestätigt und erweitert werden.Chemical synapses are key elements for the communication between nerve cells. This communication can be regulated on various time scales and through different mechanisms affecting synaptic transmission. Amongst these are slow and long-lasting adjustments by endogenous neuromodulators, instantaneous and reversible activity-dependent regulation by short-term plasticity and persistent activity-dependent changes by long-term plasticity. Within this thesis, we have investigated several aspects of modulation of synaptic transmission and its functional relevance at the example of the hippocampal mossy fiber synapse. The presented results were acquired through electrophysiological and microfluorometric experiments at the hippocampal formation of mice and could be verified and substantiated through theoretical analyses, simulations and computational modelling.

Hippocampal mossy fibres (MFs) have been studied intensely in vitro. While many properties of the MFs are well characterised, other findings are debated, particularly in relation to MF long-term potentiation (MF-L TP). MF-L TP is widely accepted as being expressed presynaptically in vitro; however, the induction mechanisms remain unclear. Although kainate receptors (KARs) are generally considered to have a role in MF-L TP induction, the identity of the subtype is debated. Furthermore, the contribution of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGlu receptors) in this form of plasticity is also controversial. The MFs also exhibit unusual short-term plasticity, including frequency facilitation (FF) which is observed to variable extents in vitro and in conscious rats. An aim of this study was to circumvent the methodological variations, which can affect experimental outcomes in vitro. This was achieved by assessing MF synaptic plasticity in vivo, in anaesthetised rats. A slow-onset MF-L TP was reliably induced and saturated by one train of tetanisation at 100 Hz. MF field excitatory postsynaptic potentials (fEPSPs) were depressed by a group II mGlu receptor agonist, DCG-IV. MF-L TP was also shown to be inducible independently of NMDAR activation. The slow-onset profile of MF-L TP was further investigated and found to be unaffected by altering anaesthetic and tetanisation parameters. Depression, as opposed to facilitation, of the MF fEPSPs occurred in anaesthetised rats during increased frequencies of stimulation. However, facilitation of the fEPSPs was noted in the hippocampus, most likely at the associational/commissural pathway following contralateral or ipsilateral stimulation. MF-L TP persisted in the presence of KAR antagonists or mGlu receptor antagonists. However, MF-L TP was abolished by intrahippocampal co-injection of a KAR antagonist with specific mGlu receptor antagonists. Use of group I mGlu receptor antagonists indicated roles for both mGlu1 and mGlu5 receptors. This study suggests that KARs and mGlu receptors play interchangeable roles in the induction of MF-LTP in vivo.

Dentate microcircuitry is thought to be involved in filtering, integrating, and relaying extrinsic hippocampal inputs to the hippocampus proper, which contributes to memory formation and retrieval. The axons of granule cells are called mossy fibres (MFs), and contain multiple terminal types that form characteristic synaptic connections with their postsynaptic targets. This diversity of presynaptic release sites that exists on the same MF provides an extremely interesting axonal type to study the organizing principles of presynaptic release regulation. A remarkable set of neurotransmitters and receptors present at the MF synaptic complex allow diverse computational modification of information from the dentate gyrus to the hippocampus. There are several types of glutamate receptors expressed at MF, such as group II/III mGluRs and kainate receptors (KARs). Presynaptic KARs modulate transmission at MF-CA3 pyramidal cell synapses; however, it is not known whether presynaptic KARs affect other synapses made by MFs. The aim of the first part of this thesis was to establish the principles of synapse-specific actions of presynaptic KARs in MFs. Combining electrophysiology and calcium imaging, this study provides compelling evidence that presynaptic KARs and Ca2+ stores can be activated by glutamate release from a single action potential in a single MF axon. This contributes to short-term, use-dependent facilitation of presynaptic Ca2+ entry and glutamate release exclusively at MF-CA3 pyramidal cell synaps, but not at other MF synapses, on hilar mossy cells or interneurons. Thus, our findings indicate that the presynaptic KARs, coupled with intracellular stores, exist in a synapse-specific autoreceptor mechanism. Activation of KARs strengthened MF-CA3 pyramidal cell synapses by increasing the Ca2+ influx at giant boutons, which might also contribute to the KAR-dependent hyper-excitability of the MF circuitry related to the mechanisms of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). This makes KARs good potential targets for therapies in CNS disorders such as epilepsy and other neurological and psychiatric disorders. The second part of this thesis was to explore the actions on the hippocampus of purified antibodies from a limbic encephalitis (LE) patient. LE is a CNS disease characterized by subacute onset of memory loss and temporal lobe seizures. The serum of these patients strongly labels MFs apparently co-localizing with the VGKC. The patients improve with immunotherapies that reduce the VGKC antibody levels in the serum, thus, strongly suggesting that these antibodies cause the condition. We found that LE serum IgGs enhance CA3 pyramidal cell excitability by blocking α-DTX sensitive VGKCs, which results in the increased release of glutamate. This, in turn, strengthens and desynchronizes MF and CA3 pyramidal cells synaptic transmission. However, these effects were occluded by α-DTX, a Kv1.1, Kv1.2 and Kv1.6 antagonist which, when applied alone, mimicked the action of the LE IgG, suggesting that they may share similar mechanisms of action. In contrast serum taken from healthy control patients had no significant effect under same recording conditions. Thus, this study provides the first evidence that the LE IgG functionally affects VGKC containing Kv1.1, Kv1.2 and/or Kv1.6 at both presynaptic MF axon terminals as well as the postsynaptic somatodendritic domain of CA3 pyramidal cells. Whatever defines the exact nature of LE IgG action, our results suggest that drugs acting specifically as openers of VGKC might help to protect the hippocampus from immune-mediated damage. In conclusion my data is consistent with the increasingly documented idea that MFs play a critical role in regulating the excitability of the hippocampal circuits and the dysfunction of MF transmission profoundly impairs hippocampal function.

L'hippocampe est une région du cerveau située dans le lobe temporal médian. Avec d'autres structures limbiques, l'hippocampe est impliqué dans des processus d'apprentissage et de mémorisation et possède un rôle crucial dans le traitement spatial de l'information. Les synapses de l'hippocampe formées entre les fibres moussues (fm) originaires du gyrus denté et les neurones pyramidaux de CA3 ont reçu une attention particulière, compte tenu de la position stratégique occupée par le gyrus denté à l'entrée de l'hippocampe. En outre les synapses fm- CA3 sont distinctes de la plupart des autres synapses excitatrices du système nerveux central par leurs propriétés morphologiques et physiologiques uniques. Cela soulève la question de savoir si ces propriétés uniques reflètent aussi un rôle fonctionnel unique dans le traitement de l'information effectué par cette synapse au sein du microcircuit de l'hippocampe. Malheureusement nous ne savons que peu de choses sur la façon dont les cellules granulaires modulent l'activité des neurones de CA3 dans le réseau intact in vivo (Henze et al, 2002 ; Hagena et Manahan - Vaughan, 2010, 2011). Le manque d'information est dû au fait que la manipulation classique des circuits neuronaux par des approches électriques, pharmacologiques et génétiques manque de précisions spatiale et temporelle in vivo. L'utilisation de la stimulation extracellulaire de fibres moussues peut conduire à l'activation polysynaptique de cellules pyramidales de CA3, qui peuvent ensuite contaminer les réponses enregistrées. Par ailleurs, l'utilisation de critères trop conservateurs peut conduire à l'exclusion des réponses provenant des fibres moussues «purs» aux propriétés méconnues (Henze et al., 2000). Toutefois, le développement récent et rapide de l’optogénétique dans les neurosciences a fourni de nouveaux outils offrant une sélectivité spatiale élevée (activation optique spécifique de la cellule), et une grande précision temporelle (à l'échelle de la milliseconde), permettant la dissection et l'étude des circuits neuronaux in vivo. L'objectif de ma thèse était de mieux comprendre les mécanismes et les conséquences physiologiques de la plasticité synaptique à court terme se produisant à la synapse formée entre les fibres moussues et les neurones pyramidaux de CA3 dans le cerveau de souris intact. La présente thèse se compose de deux parties principales. Dans la première partie, j'ai exploré de nouveaux outils optogénétiques dans le but de contrôler l'activité des cellules granulaires à l’aide d’impulsions de lumière. La stimulation optogénétique repose sur l'activation du canal ionique channelrhodopsin - 2 - lumière fermée ( ChR2 ) par une lumière bleue et induit des potentiels d'action sur une large gamme de fréquences de stimulation. J'ai aussi observé que la stimulation optique peut être utilisée pour déclencher la plasticité à court terme au niveau des synapses fm-CA3.Dans la deuxième partie j'ai affiné la méthodologie de stimulation optogénétique in vivo pour la caractérisation non invasive du fonctionnement synaptique des synapses fm- CA3. La fiabilité de la stimulation optogénétique d'une population neuronale génétiquement ciblée ainsi que la résolution d'une seule cellule obtenue en utilisant des enregistrements de cellules entières sont des étapes importantes vers une meilleure compréhension du rôle fonctionnel des fibres moussues dans le réseau de l'hippocampe in vivoThe hippocampus is a brain region located in the medial temporal lobe. Along with other limbic structures, the hippocampus is involved in learning and memory processes and has a crucial role in spatial information processing. Within the hippocampus synapses made between mossy fibers (mf) originating from the dentate gyrus and CA3 pyramidal neurons have received particular attention, given the strategic position occupied by the dentate gyrus at the entrance of the hippocampus. Moreover mf-CA3 synapses are distinct from most of other excitatory synapses in the central nervous system for their unusual morphological and physiological properties. This raises the question if these unique properties reflect a unique functional role in information processing carried out by this synapse within the microcircuit of the hippocampus. Unfortunately very little is known on how granule cells modulate the activity of CA3 neurons in the intact network in vivo (Henze et al., 2002; Hagena and Manahan-Vaughan, 2010, 2011). The paucity of information is due to the fact that classical manipulation of neuronal circuits using electrical, pharmacological and genetic approaches lack spatial and temporal precision in vivo. The use of bulk extracellular stimulation may lead to polysynaptic activation of CA3 pyramidal cells, which can subsequently contaminate putative mossy fibers synaptic responses measured in CA3 pyramidal cells. The use of overly conservative criteria on the other side may lead to the exclusion of “pure” mossy fibers responses with unexpected properties (Henze et al., 2000).However the recent and fast growth of optogenetics in neuroscience has provided new tools with high spatial selectivity (cell specific optical activation) and temporal precision (at the millisecond scale), allowing the dissection and investigation of neuronal circuits in vivo. The aim of my thesis was to gain insight into the mechanisms and the physiological consequences of short-term synaptic plasticity occurring at mossy fibers to CA3 pyramidal neurons synapses in the intact mouse brain. The present thesis consists of two main parts. In the first part I explored new optogenetic tools to control the activity of granule cells with pulses of light. Optogenetic stimulation, which relies on the activation of the light-gated ion channel channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) by blue light reliably induced action potentials over a wide range of frequencies of stimulation. I also found that optical stimulation can be used to trigger short term plasticity at mf-CA3 synapses. In the second part I refined optogenetic stimulation methodology in vivo for non-invasive characterization of synaptic functioning of the mf-CA3 synapses. The reliability of optogenetic stimulation of a genetically targeted neuronal population together with the single cell resolution obtained using whole-cell recordings are important steps towards a better understanding of the functional role of the mossy fibers in the hippocampal network in vivo

Les synapses fibres moussues de l‘hippocampe entre le gyrus denté et les cellulespyramidales de CA3 sont caractérisées par leur morphologie particulière, et par leurspropriétés distinctives de transmission synaptique et de plasticité présynaptique. Cessynapses sont parfois appelées «détonatrices» pour leur rôle fonctionnel dansl‘encodage de la mémoire épisodique. Cependant, les mécanismes moléculaires à labase des propriétés spécifiques de ces synapses restent peu connus. Ce travail estcomposé de deux parties principales:1) Phénotypage des synapses fibres moussues de l'hippocampe chez les sourisVAMP7 KOVAMP7 est une protéine SNARE vésiculaire de la famille des longins, qui joue unrôle dans la croissance des neurites durant le développement. Dans le cerveauadulte, VAMP7 est enrichi dans un sous-ensemble de terminaisons nerveuses, enparticulier dans les fibres moussues de l‗hippocampe. Nous avons analysé lafonction de VAMP7 dans la libération de neurotransmetteurs par une caractérisationextensive de la transmission synaptique et des mécanismes de plasticité de cettesynapse. L'absence de VAMP7 ne cause pas de graves déficits développementauxou neuronaux (Sato et al., 2011; Danglot et al., 2012). Les mécanismesprésynaptiques de la plasticité à court terme de la fibre moussue de l‘hippocampesemblent également normaux, pour des raisons éventuelles qui seront discutées.2) Circuits du CA3 examinés par traçage viral et enregistrements de pairesNous avons développé une technique pour établir des enregistrements en pairesentre cellules en grain du gyrus denté connectées et cellules pyramidales CA3 (GCCA3),sur des cultures organotypiques de tranches d'hippocampe de souris. Pouridentifier les partenaires présynaptiques directs à une cellule pyramidale CA3 ciblée,nous avons combiné l‘électroporation cellulaire unitaire et le traçage mono-transsynaptiquebasé sur un virus de la rage recombinant et pseudotypé. Nous avonstransfecté une cellule pyramidale CA3 unique par tranche avec les plasmides codantla glycoprotéine d‘enveloppe du virus de la rage (RG), un rapporteur fluorescent, etla protéine TVA (récepteur de surface apparenté au EnvA, qui n'a pas d‘homologuechez les cellules de mammifères). Les tranches ont ensuite été infectées avec levirus de la rage recombinant et pseudotypé. Après 3-4 jours, le traçage mono-transsynaptiquerévèle les entrées présynaptiques de ce neurone unique. Ensuite, nousavons pu établir des enregistrements de paires entre les cellules en grain-CA3connectés, ainsi que de quantifier les partenaires présynaptiques de la cellulepyramidale CA3 de départThe hippocampal mossy fiber is characterized by its particular morphology, distinctsynaptic transmission and presynaptic plasticity. Moreover, this synapse has beencalled ―teacher‖ or ―detonator‖ for its proposed functional role in episodic memoryencoding. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying its specific functionalproperties remain elusive. This work is composed of two main parts:1) Phenotyping Hippocampal Mossy Fiber Synapses in VAMP7 KO MiceVAMP7 is a vesicle SNARE of the longin family important in neurite growth duringdevelopment. In the adult brain, VAMP7 is enriched in a subset of nerve terminals,particularly at the hippocampal mossy fiber. We analyzed VAMP7 function inneurotransmitter release by characterizing basal and evoked transmission at thissynapse in KO mice and fully tested hypotheses relevant to short-term plasticity.Loss of VAMP7 has been previously reported not to cause major developmental orneurological deficits (Sato et al., 2011; Danglot et al., 2012). Presynapticmechanisms of short-term plasticity at the hippocampal mossy fiber also seemunaffected for potential reasons that will be discussed.2) CA3 Circuits Probed with RABV-Tracing and Paired RecordingsWe developed a technique to establish paired recordings between connected dentategyrus granule cells and CA3 pyramidal cells (GC-CA3) in mouse hippocampalorganotypic slice cultures. To identify direct presynaptic partners to a defined targetCA3 pyramidal cell, we combined single-cell electroporation (SCE) and mono-transsynaptictracing based on a pseudotyped, recombinant rabies virus (EnvApseudotyped RABV ΔG). Using SCE we transfected a single CA3 pyramidal cell perslice with the plasmids encoding: the RABV envelope glycoprotein (RG), afluorescent reporter, and TVA (the EnvA cognate surface receptor, which has nohomologue in mammalian cells). The slices were subsequently infected with EnvApseudotyped RABV ΔG. After 3-4 days, the RABV mono-trans-synaptic tracingrevealed the presynaptic inputs of that single neuron. Then, we were able toestablish paired recordings between connected GC-CA3 cells, as well as to quantifythe presynaptic partners of the starter CA3 pyramidal cell
De mosvezel van de hippocampus kenmerkt zich door een bijzondere morfologie,uitzonderlijke synaptische transmissie en presynaptische plasticiteit. De synapswordt ook wel "leraar" of "detonator" genoemd vanwege zijn waarschijnlijke rol in decodering van het episodisch geheugen. Toch blijven de specifieke moleculairemechanismen van dit synaps onbekend. Dit werk bestaat uit twee delen:1) Fenotypering van mosvezel synapsen van de hippocampus in VAMP7 KO muizenVAMP7 is een vesicle-SNARE van de longin familie van belang bij de groei vanneurieten tijdens de ontwikkeling. In de volwassen hersenen, wordt VAMP7 verrijkt ineen subset van zenuwuiteinden, vooral in de mosvezel van de hippocampus. Weanalyseerden VAMP7 functie in neurotransmitter afgifte door het karakteriseren vanbasale en opgeroepen transmissie bij deze synaps in KO muizen. Eerder is algesteld dat gebrek aan VAMP7 niet leidt tot grote ontwikkelings- of neurologischeafwijkingen (Sato et al., 2011; Danglot et al., 2012). Presynaptische mechanismenvan korte termijn plasticiteit in de mosvezel van de hippocampus lijken ookonaangetast te zijn, de mogelijke redenen hiervoor zullen worden besproken.2) CA3 circuits onderzocht met behulp van RABV-tracing en gekoppelde opnamesWe ontwikkelden een techniek om gekoppelde opnames tussen korelcellen van degyrus dentatus en aangesloten CA3 piramidale cellen (KC-CA3) op zogenaamde‗mouse hippocampal organotypic slice cultures‘ te meten. Om rechtstreeksepresynaptische partners te identificeren van een specifieke CA3 piramidale cel,combineerden we single-cell electroporation (SCE) en mono-trans-synaptic tracingop basis van een pseudo-typed, recombinant rabiësvirus (EnvA pseudogetypedRABV ΔG). Met behulp van SCE transfecteerde we één CA3 piramidale cel per slicemet plasmiden die coderen voor: het RABV glycoproteïne-envelop (RG), eenfluorescerende reporter, en TVA (de aan EnvA verwante oppervlakte receptor diegeen homoloog in zoogdiercellen heeft). De slices werden vervolgens geïnfecteerdmet ENVA pseudogetyped RABV ΔG. Na 3-4 dagen bracht de RABV mono-transsynaptischetracing de presynaptische ingangen van die ene neuron aan het licht.Hierna konden we gekoppelde opnames doen tussen verbonden KC-CA3 cellen.Daarnaast konden we de presynaptische partners van de starter CA3 pyramidale celkwantificeren

La maladie d’Alzheimer (MA) est la forme la plus commune de démence chez les personnes âgées. La maladie se caractérise par des pertes de fonctions cognitives et plusieurs études ont montré une étroite relation entre la neuroinflammation, les déficits synaptiques et la perte des fonctions cognitives dans la MA. L'importance de la composante neuroinflammatoire a été démontrée essentiellement grâce à des données épidémiologiques rapportant une prévalence diminuée de 40 à 70% chez des patients traités chroniquement par des anti-inflammatoires non stéroïdiens (AINS) pour d'autres pathologies. Les AINS sont des inhibiteurs des enzymes de synthèse des prostaglandines. Les prostaglandines sont des métabolites de l’acide arachidonique. Parmi ces prostaglandines, la PGE2 est connue pour moduler la transmission et les plasticités synaptiques dans l’hippocampe et son expression est fortement augmentée dans la maladie d’Alzheimer. De nombreux travaux rapportent l'existence de déficits synaptiques dans la MA, notamment dans l'hippocampe, siège de la mémoire et de l’apprentissage. Ces travaux se sont focalisés sur les déficits postsynaptiques à la synapse archétypique formée entre les cellules pyramidales CA3 et CA1. A l'inverse, la synapse formée entre les fibres moussues et les cellules pyramidales CA3 (FM-CA3) exprime des plasticités présynaptiques atypiques, à court et à long terme, indépendantes des récepteurs NMDA et il n'existe que très peu d'études concernant ces plasticités dans le contexte de MA. L’objectif de cette étude a été de montrer l’implication de PGE2 dans les déficits synaptiques à la synapse FM-CA3 dans un modèle murin de la MA, la souris double transgénique APPswe/PS1ΔE9 (APP/PS1). Nos résultats montrent que l’application exogène de PGE2 chez des souris sauvages entraîne un déficit de plasticité uniquement sur la potentialisation à long terme (PLT) exprimée présynaptiquement via l’activation spécifique du récepteur EP3. Nous montrons aussi que dans la souris APP/PS1, seule cette PLT présynaptique est impactée à partir de 12 mois. Enfin, ce déficit de la PLT présynaptique pour la souris APP/PS1 est réversé par un inhibiteur spécifique des récepteurs EP3 montrant ainsi un rôle clé pour la signalisation PGE2 - EP3 dans les déficits synaptiques hippocampaux de ce modèle murin de la maladie d’AlzheimerAlzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in elder people characterized by a loss of cognitive function linked to synaptic deficits. There is considerable evidence that neuroinflammation and AD are intimately linked. The key role of neuroinflammation in the course of the disease was figured out by epidemiological studies reporting a reduced prevalence to develop AD for patients chronically treated with Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs). Prostaglandins are lipidic mediators derived from arachidonic acid and their synthesis is inhibited by NSAIDs. Among prostaglandins, PGE2 is known to modulate synaptic transmission and plasticity in the hippocampus and its concentration is higher in brains from AD patients. Numerous studies have reported synaptic deficits in the course of AD, mainly in the hippocampus which is essential for cognitive functions like learning or memory formation. The vast majority of these studies were focused on postsynaptic deficits at the canonical CA3-CA1 synapse. On the opposite, the synapse between mossy fiber and CA3 pyramidal cell (Mf-CA3) that express presynaptic short-term and long-term plasticity, was poorly studied in the context of AD. The aim of my project was to decipher the involvement of PGE2 in synaptic deficits in a mouse model of AD, the APPswe/PS1ΔE9 (APP/PS1). Our results show that acute application of PGE2 on wild type young mice impairs only presynaptic long term potentiation (LTP) at the Mf-CA3 synapse via the specific activation of EP3 receptor. In APP/PS1 mice, we demonstrate that the sole deficit at the Mf-CA3 synapse is an impairment of the presynaptic LTP at 12 months of age. Finally we demonstrate that the impaired presynaptic LTP in APP/PS1 mice can be rescued by the acute application of a specific EP3 receptor antagonist, pointing out the key role of PGE2 - EP3 signaling pathway in synaptic deficits in hippocampus in a mouse model of AD

Cette thèse a pour objectif spécifique d’explorer les événements précoces pouvant être à l’origine du bourgeonnement aberrant des fibres moussues (FM) du gyrus denté, une réorganisation majeure dans l’Epilepsie du Lobe Tempora (ELT). Nous avons utilisé le modèle pilocarpine d’ELT chez le rat afin de montrer que la transmission GABAergique jouait un rôle prépondérant dans la formation des FM aberrantes au cours de l’épileptogenèse. Ceci étant due à une altération de l’homéostasie chlore, suite à une augmentation de l’expression du co-transporteur NKCC1 et une diminution du co-transporteur KCC2. Nos résultats ont démontré que le récepteur aux neurotrophines p75NTR était un médiateur de l’action trophique de la réponse GABAergique dépolarisante sur le bourgeonnement aberrant des FM. Le blocage de l’action dépolarisante de la transmission GABAergique via l’utilisation de la bumétanide, a permis de réduire le bourgeonnement aberrant des MF en réduisant l’expression de p75NTR. Enfin, l’application transitoire de la bumétanide au cours de l’épileptogenèse a abouti à la réduction du nombre de crises récurrentes et spontanées au cours de la phase chronique d’ELT chez le rat. Ce travail a permis de dévoiler les mécanismes moléculaires sous-jacents de la réorganisation du réseau neuronal glutamatergique consécutif à une crise inaugurale dans un modèle d’ELT. Dans l'ensemble, cette thèse apporte un éclairage nouveau sur l’importance de l’interaction de la signalisation GABAergique avec les neurotrophines afin d’orchestrer la plasticité réactive au sein de l’hippocampe dans TLEThe present dissertation undertakes to investigate the early triggering events of the mossy fiber sprouting (MFS) in the dentate gyrus, a hallmark of hippocampal reactive plasticity in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE). We used the rat pilocarpine model of TLE to show that altered GABAA receptor-mediated transmission play a key role in the formation of early ectopic MFS during epileptogenesis. This is likely due to a compromised chloride homeostasis, as a result of increased expression of chloride loader NKCC1 and downregulation of the neuronal chloride extruder KCC2. We next addressed the mechanistic action of depolarizing GABAAR responses with regard to neurotrophin signaling. Our findings uncovered that the pan neurotrophin receptor p75 (p75NTR) mediated the sculpting action of depolarizing GABAAR responses on the ectopic MFS. Blockade of depolarizing GABAAR responses using the loop diuretic bumetanide reduced abnormal p75NTR subsequently decreased the ectopic MFS. Finally, transitory application of bumetanide during epileptogenesis resulted in reduction of spontaneous and recurrent seizures during the chronic phase of TLE. The rationale of this work is that unveiling the molecular mechanisms underlying the hippocampal post-seizure glutamatergic network rewiring will help to drive future novel therapeutic avenues involving chloride homeostasis and neurotrophin interplay. Overall, this dissertation shed a new light on how GABAergic transmission and neurotrophin signaling crosstalk can orchestrate reactive hippocampal plasticity in TLE

Glutamatergic vesicles in hippocampal mossy fiber presynaptic boutons release zinc, which plays a modulatory role in synaptic activity and LTP. In this work, a fluorescence microscopy technique and the fluorescent probe for cytosolic zinc, Newport Green (NG), were applied, in a combined study of autofluorescence and zinc changes at the hippocampal mossy fiber-CA3 synaptic system. In particular, the dynamics of flavoprotein (FAD) autofluorescence signals, was compared to that of postsynaptic zinc signals, elicited both by high K+ (20 mM) and by tetraethylammonium (TEA, 25 mM). The real zinc signals were obtained subtracting autofluorescence values, from corresponding total NG-fluorescence data. Both autofluorescence and zinc-related fluorescence were raised by high K+. In contrast, the same signals were reduced during TEA exposure. It is suggested that the initial outburst of TEA-evoked zinc release might activate ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels, as part of a safeguard mechanism against excessive glutamatergic action. This would cause sustained inhibition of zinc signals and a more reduced mitochondrial state. In favor of the “KATP channel hypothesis”, the KATP channel blocker tolbutamide (250 μM) nearly suppressed the TEA-evoked fluorescence changes. It is concluded that recording autofluorescence from brain slices is essential for the accurate assessment of zinc signals and actions.
