00:00 risk. So today we will continue about the neurotransmitter systems And this is

00:11 12 of neuroscience. The neurotransmitter systems we saw have several different components that

00:19 synaptic components. Their synaptic components within synaptic cleft. They're also passed inactive

00:26 prison optically you have to have the to synthesize. You have to have

00:31 to transport your transmitters back into south transport them into the vesicles in the

00:39 . You have a releasing machinery. have vesicles that are specific to glutamate

00:45 specific. Done score vesicles peptides. Now you also have boston optic components

00:55 are receptors the boston optic receptors. we discussed that those receptors can be

01:01 a tropic or they can be metal , meaning that if there are no

01:08 then the receptor channels. If their tropic then their receptors that are linked

01:12 g proteins intracellular early that mediate into actions. You get the level of

01:19 number of downstream within the molecular cascades secondary messenger cascades. Some of the

01:26 techniques to then study different components of neurotransmitter system is the immune artistic chemistry

01:33 situ hybridization mimicry of neurotransmitters or synoptic if you may and also caging and

01:43 of neurotransmitters which is the additional information was in your supporting class materials that

01:49 about engaging which allows essentially for very activation of single synopsis using laser microscopy

02:00 all of these techniques can be applied studying the pre synaptic components for studying

02:06 receptors for synaptic receptors are studying degrading such as those who still call industries

02:12 would be found in the synoptic They can give you a bird's eye

02:16 of the whole embryo. If you're at developmental stages can give you a

02:21 eye view of the developing brain structures they change with time. Different markers

02:28 identify different proteins in different components of systems. Also evolve, mature and

02:37 with time and also change and get by different pathologies. Yes.

02:49 In reality, when you study the system and when you study, let's

02:55 any one of the neurotransmitter system you're likely to use multiple staining

03:01 You're likely to use multiple markers So when you hear about double or

03:08 immunities to chemistry immuno fluorescence that means you're using two or three antibodies that

03:14 directed potentially against different parts of a of interest for you such as the

03:21 enzyme and degrading enzyme and there is that receives that quality. We want

03:26 see it all together. And so you would use different fluorescence and different

03:33 markers that will allow you to simultaneously all of the different components of a

03:41 system of interest. These are some the neurotransmitter systems that we've discussed in

03:48 . We will know a lot at end of the sports about guido

03:53 GIC signaling and at the end of lecture about Gabby allergic signaling and Colin

03:59 signal And as you recall glutamate and , the major amino acids, neurotransmitters

04:06 missy locally in is the major I you're a transmitter that you studied in

04:12 detail but we also addressed other molecules as the production of serotonin from trip

04:18 fan or the cata cola mean cascade piracy um to doping me into one

04:26 . Um So you should know certain of that but not all of the

04:30 and synthesizing and degrading enzymes for all the systems apart from the three most

04:36 one. So let's see the cooling you know really well. The synthesis

04:41 acetylcholine with the help of chad gets the vesicles gets released. Austin

04:46 It will buy into nicotine nick, single building receptor channels and binding of

04:51 civil code into these channels will cause influx of sodium and pasta. Matic

04:56 polarization, this negative legacy locally in is also permissible to potassium. So

05:01 sodium rushes in and causes deep The re polarization from this potential will

05:07 from potassium reflux in through the nicotine receptor channel from the inside to the

05:13 of the south still Colin. Can buy into mascara nick. I see

05:18 coding receptors in the cns and some these receptors can be expressed in the

05:23 synopsis really can be expressed in different or they can be expressed in different

05:29 that are located nearby. So the from acetylcholine nicotine receptor is going to

05:35 a change in the number of potential is fairly fast because it will open

05:40 channel or will allow for sodium to The in fact the versatile clothing binding

05:45 middle. The tropic masculinity receptor will you 13 couple protein cascade and downstream

05:53 potassium channel which will take sometimes a delayed response. Okay. And the

06:00 of nicotine receptors influx of sodium which deep polarization and as you will see

06:06 fact that most chronic receptors influx of which is hyper polarization. So they

06:12 of these systems Iona tropic and metal tropic systems, they could be working

06:17 each other either at the level of number and potential or downstream the intracellular

06:23 cascades. And we'll illustrate some of examples. A single clothing in the

06:28 club gets broken by down by cyclical . Growing is transported back to the

06:34 we synthesize goes through the same cycle alzheimer's medications for the most part targeted

06:40 investor race by inhibiting as a vehicle race and prolonging the by availability opposite

06:48 coding. And that remaining synopsis euro you can distinguish between different receptors whether

06:56 nicotine, IQ or mascara, nick . The tropic, formidable tropic nicotine

07:02 an agonist for nicotine, it must from Moscow manicure ari. For

07:07 it is an antagonist and ultra pean an antagonist from estrogenic or something when

07:13 little company and binds to the mosque receptor you have what is called the

07:18 path of initiation. This is called shortcut, partly because the activation of

07:23 . Protium interacts immediately with a nearby and this channel is a potassium

07:29 The shortcut faculty because there is no chemical intermediaries like secondary messengers between the

07:35 protein coupled complex and the target channel is potassium channel. So this gamma

07:42 will have a binding site on the channel and opening of the potassium channel

07:47 cause positive, starts to leave the , leaving the inside of the cell

07:51 negative or hyper polarized. And this began to to to to what I've

07:57 earlier that nicotine nick receptor channels to influx of sodium will dip polarizing

08:04 mascara, nick activation of masculinity, Colin receptor, which is not a

08:10 . The G protein receptor, G coupled receptor activation of the G podium

08:16 open up nearby potassium channels with some , must quranic. If the two

08:20 co express nicotine, it will dip and with some delay activation of masculinity

08:26 the same molecule with some delay will polarized the number of the country.

08:31 why they have actually opposing actions at level of the charge crossing plasma

08:41 Um This is also the system that understand pretty well. In addition to

08:45 Kobe and we understand the glutamate system well and we'll understand the glutamate subtypes

08:50 synaptic receptors right now we're talking about of glutamate and cycling still. But

08:56 be looking later in this lecture and person attic glutamate receptors as well as

09:01 gaba ergic receptors remember is a tripartite . Pre synaptic neuron past synaptic neuron

09:08 leah in glutamate cycling. Glutamate that released. Person optical. It can

09:14 bind to ion to tropical intimate receptors metal tropic with major surface which will

09:19 the subject matter in the next few from now glutamate when it binds do

09:25 receptors, it also gets recycled back optically through the transporters that are neuronal

09:31 and released again. Word gets really taken by glial glutamate transporters. It

09:37 getting broken down and made into glutamine centers and glutamine is given back transported

09:45 neurons and contaminates with the help of and ATP synthesizing to glutamate and re

09:52 into the vesicles. Who is a part in controlling the amount of available

10:01 neurotransmitters. Glia is the astra site is located here because part of this

10:07 from the synoptic club doesn't return to . So as much as this neuron

10:12 like to release more and more glue maybe we are saying no wait a

10:16 let me put it through my cycle is again a slower cycle because you're

10:21 glutamate and glutamine, you're exporting You're importing glutamine, your real synthesizing

10:29 and your imp uploading the vesicles. this is much slower so in a

10:35 glee is concerned with the slower uh and regulation of good and made.

10:43 it plays a major role in how two neurons pre synaptic unfasten optical communicate

10:50 each other and the availability of that demon and neurons Cata cola means.

10:56 talked about tyrosine and l dopa norepinephrine and epinephrine and we talked about

11:04 molecules as being the upstate molecules the the net foreign and north and now

11:12 with adrenaline of the brain uh dopamine well. Uh We discussed this very

11:21 motor functions and if a civil Colin impairment Macedo Colin is common with Alzheimer's

11:29 and pseudo Colin pathways of targeted Alzheimer's pharmaceuticals, then the cata cola means

11:40 pathway and dopamine, for example is in motor control. And so motor

11:50 , central nervous system, neurological motor such as Parkinson's disease which may have

11:56 , certainly truly have spasms that really from four signalling in the Cns.

12:04 is the molecule dopamine that it's linked . And it's a common theme that

12:09 along this pathway the release the degradation the versatile Colin or cata cola means

12:17 the re update in this case the uptake of cata cola means is regulated

12:22 amphetamines like cocaine and what it does blocking the transport. It prolongs the

12:29 availability of this up neurotransmitter op molecule the synoptic left. So the other

12:41 that we discussed also serotonin and we it Trip to fan if you eat

12:48 for thanksgiving or uh is a precursor five Htp and five HTP you can

12:55 of a good mood, good appetite , sleep molecule motivation and learning.

13:04 so that relaxation when you eat big dinner parties from trip to fan not

13:09 from being full as you have a that's now generating serotonin inside inside your

13:17 . And you can see again a from ecological pharmaceutical tactic. Common

13:25 the anxiety medication PROzac, that will the reuptake of serotonin. They d

13:30 is to prolong the mouth or the availability of that molecule in the synoptic

13:38 . And there is by far less that will target the release. But

13:43 neurotransmitters which is which is a whole of study if you want to.

13:49 say instead of prolonging the availability can this serotonin vesicles and the amount of

13:56 may be normal but something is wrong the release machinery. And so how

14:01 you maybe make these vesicles stick better the membranes so that they can spill

14:06 contents into the into the amount that more effectively. Um But all of

14:12 elements along the pathways are definitely targeted should be targeted for pharmaceutical and pharmacological

14:20 manipulations. Now this is an example , we talked about nicotine, IQ

14:27 receptor, it's going to be So what's going to we're going to

14:32 potassium channels going to hyper polarized Now let's look at what can happen

14:39 a lot of these means and a of the um interactions for molecules north

14:46 Afrin more adrenaline serotonin, they all through g protein coupled cascades. And

14:52 then the question as well do they opposing actions? And the answer is

14:57 . If you look at the norepinephrine and if that norepinephrine molecule bonds to

15:02 subtype of north american receptive, its its length to a stimulus authority protein

15:09 that will induce the production of campion, podium chinese eh and Pekka

15:16 a chinese and is responsible for phosphoric which means adding pure form molecules two

15:25 proteins. And by first for relating proteins that can regulate the opening time

15:30 the closing time of these proteins. if that same norepinephrine molecule and these

15:36 receptors, the beta receptor and alpha receptor can be co expressed in the

15:41 patch of the number and in the synods if that norepinephrine molecule binds to

15:46 to its link to inhibit there's you complex and that will actually inhibit the

15:52 of cycling campy and reduce the presence protein kind and saying this is a

15:57 pull mechanism. One of them is to produce more cycling camping. Another

16:01 is pulling the system away So they the opposing actions. Yes, but

16:06 it's not as much in regulating the crossing across plasma member and influencing the

16:12 of the member and potential but rather this activity to the secretary messenger to

16:18 secondary messenger cascades have converged on the a factor molecules cycling campaign protein final

16:25 . Now you're regulating this by two receptor subtypes that is the same

16:31 the same neurotransmitter and juxtaposition to kindness inside the South. You also have

16:39 cases and hospitalizations are responsible for defence relating or removing that peel for groups

16:45 so a lot of the intracellular secondary interactions from these Ukrainian couple of complexes

16:52 the amounts relative amounts in space and time of kindnesses and foster cases.

16:59 was for relating and hospitals is defense different proteins and molecules in the separate

17:06 . Um Yeah Northern Afrin and serotonin acetylcholine. And all of these are

17:15 immune molecules that we're discussing are very from the nino acid neurotransmitters. And

17:22 reason for it is because if you in the frontal lobe there will be

17:27 innate expressing neurons. Criminal cells exhibit lot of glutamate. There's glutamate in

17:33 spinal cord and there's there's sort of that will glutamine, glutamate and gaba

17:39 same with Gabba Gabba major inhibitory neurotransmitter the cns. You'll have south peppered

17:47 throughout the C. N. That will express gaba but that's not

17:51 case with their means nor not from example has a patch in the brain

17:59 that's called local serious. The nucleus serious. There are so much of

18:06 neurons that will synthesize and produce north and you will not find any neuron

18:13 in the cortex or in this arab or in the spinal cord. No

18:18 will be synthesizing that molly with the from local civilians will be far

18:24 quite diffuse and quite spread out throughout cortex, cerebellum and also in the

18:32 . So if you were to literally uh do a surgery or have an

18:37 , let's say a knife injury that and eliminates this portion of the brain

18:43 . Just this one small nucleus, say just gets removed by accident by

18:48 bullet, there would no be no norepinephrine in the brain. But if

18:55 bullet pierced through the frontal cortex but throughout the entire cortex it would still

19:01 glutamate and Gaba released and expressed all the CNN's the same cases with

19:09 you have raffi nuclear here in purple will supply serotonin to all of the

19:15 , sub cortex, basal ganglia then you have the raffi nuclear located

19:20 a slightly different locations and the brain will supply the spinal cord. So

19:29 look at some of the other important that you should know. This is

19:36 magna cellular basil for brain nuclei which expressing a single column. So that

19:44 that civil Colin neurons that express the that are located that only and then

19:52 will project the Seattle combing these cohen projections. So think about the

19:58 You're putting a cyclical industries inhibitor. do you think it's going to be

20:07 somebody swallows a pill in the process blood brain barrier, where do you

20:11 it's going to end up going to to one blood vessel to one part

20:15 the brain? You know? You this whole circulatory system in the

20:20 We don't have time to go over . You have this beautiful circle of

20:24 , distributes the brain that sits at base of the brain. That savior

20:31 the brain cardiovascular system. Because circle actually provides circle afloat, much like

20:37 would have a circle on the traffic with multiple exits. So one this

20:43 you can still exit and enter the about the brain still works. One

20:48 the probably most beautiful structures for Their anatomical in the brain as a

20:53 of Willis. Uh Not on the , but something for everybody to

20:58 And look into. So you have colon ergic neurons here. And so

21:04 does this where does the truck It gets into the brain gets into

21:07 blood. Given to the circle of . It goes everywhere. Vanessa's

21:16 Uh senor God. As you swallow pill, It's in your blood.

21:22 is it relevant? A single colonoscopy inevitable. It's rather than, What

21:31 you say? What we're talking about cns? Okay, swallowed up and

21:41 . Went into your blood. You calling this an inhibitor. Where is

21:47 relevant? Is it relevant to Uh huh. Is it relevant to

21:55 so famous that produced a single It is no where is it

22:06 Neuromuscular junction. We're talking about N. S. The mountains.

22:13 houses only why? Because that's where get released. It doesn't matter that

22:21 are widely distributed and get sprinkled throughout cortex. They're still within synopsis,

22:27 still gets released within seven oz. now you're a drug that answered into

22:32 blood, into the brain, goes . That concentration of the blood of

22:38 drug and the pill that gets partly destroyed, digested out before it gets

22:45 the blood? A portion of it into the brain. It now gets

22:49 through alcohol brain. There's no specific . There's no drug right now that

22:54 can take as a pill and will only to the frontal neurons versus the

23:00 all neurons. It will go everywhere it's only relevant where there's that

23:05 where do you find this little polling find it in the synopsis? If

23:10 wanted to adjust? If you wanted adjust the synthesis and you have to

23:16 about how do I make these dying synthesis? More subtle poli this should

23:24 a strategy that should be pursued. what is happening then? An alzheimer's

23:28 ? You're losing Colin ergic neurons. means that the synopsis that these projections

23:35 come from the nuclei that make a Ian including this one uh particular can

23:46 kill upon thine. Don't kill Apollo is better, as you said with

23:50 British accent trying to get it right don't feel upon times lateral golf.

23:58 take mental nuclei T A lateral So L. D. T.

24:06 . Nuclear anyways so these neurons are and that's unfortunate. Right? So

24:12 trying to introduce a strategy. So strategy then should be also how do

24:18 preserve going under time? Why are doing? Why the most vulnerable to

24:25 other pathologies that we discussed tangles Right. So all of these are

24:32 questions for you. They're not quiz real answers to them. You will

24:38 up with these answers in the next decades. But this gives you a

24:43 good understanding of signaling in the brain how these very specific molecules like dopamine

24:51 eventually take mental area and substantial Migros for dopamine expression. So if you

24:58 this area of the brain but the penetrates this nucleus and destroys the south

25:04 there would be a lack of So can you feed people a single

25:11 ? Right. Does it get into brain or does it all stay in

25:16 gut? You know? So All these things are very relevant. I

25:21 it's very relevant to just general awareness everything that's going on around us with

25:28 especially and how you use drugs and you in the future develop pharmacological different

25:35 treatments and approaches and they can harmonize the gas is not the stocks in

25:41 carbon monoxide. They function in different and the retrograde fashion. We discussed

25:46 when there is a lot of deep and either dramaturgical Gabbard pre synaptic terminals

25:52 polarization. This will induce production of cannabinoids which will travel through the plasma

26:00 not stored in the vesicles and will Lee buying two CB 1 receptors which

26:06 G protein coupled cascade will shut down channel an influx of calcium will then

26:14 the influx of calcium will then reduce vesicular release and that's why you have

26:18 polarization induced suppression of inhibition. It gabba release or deep polarization induced suppression

26:25 excitation that controls glutamate release also. in this retrograde fashion under the nominees

26:31 produced when there are heightened levels of and essentially regulate and balance the release

26:36 excited turning inhibitory neurotransmitters and you know Through CB one receptors CB one receptor

26:44 cause us the bliss the euphoria feeling runner's high feeling that comes from the

26:49 avenue is because they get produced as body is working out intensely or running

26:56 . This will be through CB one CB two receptors will discuss later and

27:01 course but right now we'll mention that mostly expressed on glial cells and especially

27:06 the micro glial cells and they are in regulation of inflammation and pro inflammatory

27:13 released by microwave. So it's CB receptors are concerned with vast neural transmission

27:19 balancing of Gaba and glutamate. CB receptors are concerned with slower processes such

27:25 the control of the inflammatory processes in brain. These are the major endocannabinoid

27:31 and two A. G. And delta nine tetrahydrocannabinol. And as I

27:37 last time Canada's plant, the marijuana , the hemp plant cannabis plant period

27:44 the civic version of Delta nine The plant itself has a scent is

27:50 delta nine THC a cent days and produces the citic version of Delta nine

27:57 which is actually non psychotropic. Now Delta nine THC is a naturally occurring

28:04 cannabinoid that has a bond at the carbon between ninth and 10th carbon.

28:10 I always like to talk about things are natural and things that are synthetic

28:15 the cannabinoids are natural from your body cannabinoids such as THC a delta nine

28:22 a Delta nine THC are natural from plan produced when you go outside to

28:29 festival. So you go to the stations or you see signs that the

28:35 shops Delta eight THC carry delta eight . Canada's plant does not produce DELTA

28:43 THC. There's no DELTA H. . H. C. A.

28:48 . So how does the FAA TC about actually gets produced from CBD.

28:54 if we take the other phyto cannabinoids is can never die. All it's

28:58 second most prevalent cannabinoids. Fighter cannabinoids cannabis plant and it's a semi synthetic

29:04 . It converts and moves that bond 9 10 to 89 carbon and makes

29:10 into delta eight THC. Which is a semi synthetic form of delta nine

29:19 . And it's unregulated. That's why see signs for sale. It's unknown

29:26 unknown. As far as we the Delta nine and CBD have therapeutic

29:30 properties. You don't know any therapeutic of delta a semi synthetic which means

29:39 Every lab may use a slightly different of conversion Delta nine into Delta

29:47 That means that during that process there be solvent are the things chemicals

29:55 it may remain in that outside and plant wouldn't produce these chemicals naturally when

30:01 presume smell to mine. And so is a cautionary note to find out

30:07 any of you in the circle. with our from the scalp and eighth

30:11 to find out what it really And it is really a semi synthetic

30:16 and it will cause half of that intoxicating effect. But I believe in

30:23 different way and then rather unpleasant way another thing to know is that synthetic

30:31 in general are a lot more dangerous they can be a lot more potent

30:37 natural mode. So synthetic cannabinoids which still be found, there's no enough

30:44 for regulators to catch them and regulate . Spice kush K to whatever Sullivan

30:50 shops. It's synthetic phenomena that gets on some plant matter. They have

30:56 affinity to the CB one receptors that times greater. So if you

31:04 let's say if you have 1000 intoxicating from alcohol or from Canada's This is

31:12 of legal states and some of your 21 or some of you have access

31:17 legal status of medicinal but now or experience where you were kind of a

31:24 altered not try to multiply 1000 times feeling it's basically can be incapacitating,

31:33 be deadly and can actually cause long consequences from single or few uses because

31:40 a synthetic molecules that cannot be processed same way about the body that have

31:45 been found in nature. They don't evolutionarily with us. But rather than

31:51 from different chemical designer molecules in the . This is a cautionary.

31:57 because in Houston there were over two people that died in Hermann Park a

32:01 years ago when somebody spread some of synthetic cannabinoids, synthetic cannabinoids, synthetic

32:09 . It's a flawed term synthetic Yes, synthetic marijuana is the same

32:14 saying synthetic sunflower plans. It does exist. Okay, so it's nobody

32:21 take and synthesize a plant and put together for molecules but you can take

32:27 molecules powders like the yellow mixed and with temperatures, put solvents and so

32:34 and gets to all sorts of different that are currently unregulated. And so

32:40 state of texas has a medical Canada's . We'll talk about it later.

32:44 of course and it's really about regulation delta nine THC. It also has

32:49 hemp program on hemp part of Canada's that don't produce large amounts of

32:55 It's regulated also for THC on the fighter cannabinoid which is CBD or

33:01 And that CBD or cannabidiol is regulated regulated by the state of texas by

33:07 individually and can be freely grown and . So, know your cannabinoids.

33:14 , you're a cannabis as this therapeutic in the signaling molecules are going to

33:22 very much looked at in the future trials for multiple different applications. Right

33:27 , the state of Texas decided that , his medicine for over 200 conditions

33:34 is not really proven. And the of California decided this medicine for any

33:42 medicinal. So we also have to developing this understanding that this is an

33:49 molecule and this unusual plant because if had anti cancer, it was patented

33:58 anti inflammatories. It was used as anti epileptic, a shot of

34:04 you know, it's not, it's . So THC has a psychotropic

34:11 But it also has these therapeutic therapeutic of distinguishing medicinal from adult use or

34:19 Canada's and what it can do. also how things get muffled because people

34:26 it for adults or recreational purposes and actually see therapeutic effects. Or they're

34:32 to use it for therapeutic purposes and don't like getting high. Okay so

34:38 all sorts of situations happening right now the world related to cannabis. This

34:44 our favorite. I mean acid neurotransmitter glue to make atomic acid, it

34:50 darker box elated by God. Which dick of oscillation is simply the process

34:54 removing the acidic cielo age group and it into Gaba. So all of

35:00 inhibitory into neurons that release gamma will in positive for God. The cycling

35:07 glutamate is not unique to glue A. So you have the same

35:10 for Jabba. Also in the sense it needs to be transported and needs

35:15 be uploaded into vesicles needs to be . The synthesis is regulated and especially

35:20 for glutamate it is very much so by pastor glial cells. So when

35:27 gets released there are three types of a tropical filmmakers actors to which glutamate

35:35 tampon and M. D. And kind Nate hamper receptor and the

35:40 and highlight their distinguished based on their because these distinct molecules called pampa and

35:46 airplane will activate or service agonists for distinct channels. Mm. Yeah let's

35:57 about glutamate channels And uh in general acid channels And there are several concepts

36:04 pharmacology kinetic selectivity and conductance. so first of all, from the

36:11 of pharmacology, we're going to talk Tampa blue channel on this pink channel

36:18 India they're both receptor channels for google the standpoint of pharmacology. They have

36:24 distinct agonists and they have their distinct agonist and India as an agonist for

36:31 . A. Gets a little bit complex with the terrorists for antagonists.

36:34 look into the following flag kinetics. do we talk about when we talk

36:40 kinetic how fast the channel opens, fast the channel closes. When we

36:45 about channel selectivity, we talked about ions crossed to the channel. When

36:50 look at the action potential dynamics, talked about voltage, gave it sodium

36:56 the channel vault, educated potassium selective . They were selected for one high

37:04 sodium, another ion potassium, both calcium channels present africa they selected for

37:12 . When you look at these channels , Ampara and an MBA. Their

37:18 for two or 3 islands. No . But now multiple ionic species,

37:27 the selectivity. When you talk about is how big is the conductors,

37:32 many ions can pass through that channel a big conductance. Because you can

37:38 again about the analogy of the water . If you have a big when

37:44 when the when the firemen come to the fire, they don't bring the

37:47 small garden hose? Bring the big . There's a lot of pressure.

37:55 how big is the hose and how of water can flow through it?

37:58 the conductance. How big is the when glutamate gets released into the glutamate

38:05 person optically emperor and NBA receptors co and expressed and glutamate will first bind

38:13 the same time to happen and the . But Emperor receptors of wrestling member

38:18 potential will open immediately. Will cause influx of sodium which will cause this

38:23 phase of excited very past synoptic potentially . And re polarization in this

38:30 P. S. P. Will because after some influx of sodium there's

38:34 to be a reflux of the casting these channels. Glutamate monster amper addressing

38:40 and potential it opens tries to de the number and then how to polarize

38:45 the numbering again. Yeah and D. A receptor channels are

38:51 First of all you can see that conduct sodium and calcium inside the cells

38:55 calcium calcium influx here is not as concerned with the polarization of the plasma

39:03 but as I noted, calcium inside south starts as a secondary messenger and

39:10 as a calcium induced calcium release So calcium is important there's influx of

39:20 but NMDA receptor doesn't open right away glutamate is released and advance the ample

39:26 receptors ample receptor opens right away and . D. A receptor does not

39:31 an NBA receptors blocked with magnesium regular concentration of extra cellular magnesium is 1.2

39:39 Ramallah and then in the A receptor a couple of binding size for that

39:44 to go inside the channel and basically it closed. So what needs to

39:51 is that this magnesium block needs to alleviated. And the way that this

39:55 is the plasma membrane from resting membrane of about negative 65 no balls has

40:01 de polarize to about minus 15 minus minus 30 million volts. And as

40:09 plasma membrane D polarizes, magnesium will NMDA receptor channel and will cause allow

40:17 an influx of sodium and calcium. an M. D. A receptor

40:22 is going to be responsible for the phase of this excited terrapass synaptic

40:28 So where does this deep polarization come ? This? Deep polarization comes from

40:33 receptors. So amber opening an influx sodium will cause the polarization which will

40:40 the alleviation of magnesium block. In M. D. A receptor it

40:44 has good um a bound to it now it will cost conduct consider an

40:48 . D. A receptor. Not an M. D.

40:52 A lot of time sample and kind to group together and they called nine

40:56 M. D. A receptor is they have these different kinetics and it's

41:01 because of them the receptors a matter tropic or something don't confuse it with

41:05 . This is notable tropical item This is an M. B.

41:08 . And M. D. A is not coupled to do bird in

41:11 I just I dunno tropic but it different kinetics and has different dynamics.

41:17 stands for appropriate tannic acid climate, an NBA receptors. There conductance is

41:22 the order of about 20 people. for China And an NBA Foster alaric

41:29 channel conductance is about 50 peter So an NBA channel in a

41:36 apple gets activated first then there's the , then you engage in MD A

41:42 then you get 2.5 times more excited be conducted Because it's 50 people.

41:49 over 20 people simmons your channel they their own antagonists or blockers sample kind

41:55 will get blocked or antagonized by molecule C N Q X. An

42:00 D. A will be blocked by PV. And sometimes it's a P

42:05 . This is roman numeral five really a Tv or a P five.

42:09 used interchangeably when glutamate is released. all that is necessary for anna tropical

42:18 a major center to open but that not all that is necessary for an

42:23 . D. A. I am tropical with a major septic field.

42:28 an interesting thing that it plays a first of all inside the synapse you

42:33 some licensing, we learned about licenses inhibitory neurotransmitter and the spinal cord licensing

42:40 also a co factor for an D. A receptor. That means

42:43 the certain amount. Well I see to be present and the synapses in

42:49 for this glutamate to effectively mind I walk into fit into key chain effectively

42:55 the NMDA receptor. Uh huh. other thing is it's a coincidence detector

43:03 is an NBA receptacle coincident defector? it needs pre synaptic glutamate. So

43:09 detects pre synaptic activity and it needs synaptic deep polarization so it detects passing

43:17 pre synaptic we made it binds the but it won't function until it senses

43:24 synoptic deep polarization. Uh huh. it's a coincidence detector in a way

43:30 linking the activity the priest an african activity and it is a very important

43:37 in many different forms of plasticity which the cellular mechanisms for learning and

43:45 Once an M. D. A is open it will allow for influx

43:48 sodium and calcium and influx of There's a couple of binding sites from

43:54 there's a binding site for a sink well. And a common street drug

44:00 or Angel dust also has a binding to an NBA receptor and pharmaceutical pharmacological

44:08 also have binding sites in NBA So then the receptor is a huge

44:14 for different things mostly for therapeutical applications obviously for and illicit street drugs as

44:23 . PCP binding to an M. . A receptor can cause hallucinations and

44:28 and state of acute schizophrenia which can into chronic schizophrenia that that is evident

44:37 quite a lot of the illicit drug reported from this drug. So it's

44:43 potent one time the fact that it's powerful on that door may mess up

44:49 door for a long time. So you don't use the right key you

44:55 you sometimes forced the key in and try to kind of push your way

44:59 and then the lock is broken. it doesn't block anymore, stays half

45:05 or stays closed all the time and have to slam it every time to

45:09 up. And now you have to the door and do some magic

45:12 Turn it three times to wait for click and remedial. That's just an

45:17 . But that's the reality again, that these powerful synthetic molecules they bind

45:24 these receptors bind to these doors and they get unbound even the effect can

45:31 long lasting. This is the metal intimate receptors that are linked through june

45:37 couple of cascades and we'll look at in the second. You guys remember

45:42 it to this technique called a voltage technique and the voltage clamp technique was

45:47 in order for us to isolate the and to measure russell potential for individual

45:54 and we use voltage clamp and Hoskin hostile use voltage plant in order to

45:59 that inward sodium Karen outward potassium They showed the reversal potentials for these

46:06 . They use specific blockers to block the inward are the outward fern.

46:11 so this is a voltage clamp experiment an M. D. A receptor

46:16 the left. You have normal physiological In which you have 1.2 million moller

46:24 outside of the next solution. And you apply glutamate and you record from

46:30 NMDA receptors and this is an MDA current but minus 60. These downward

46:38 should be opening of an M. . A receptor and as you can

46:41 there's no activity here the moment 60 compared to here there's a lot of

46:48 here at -60. This is a condition -30. You can see some

46:56 the activity here And at zero you nothing. So you're recording through an

47:05 . D. A receptor. And in this course we learned the nearest

47:10 . The first equation was equilibrium potential for individual ions. My Mercedes for

47:18 positive 55 for sodium positive, 125 for calcium. This is the reversal

47:27 for NMDA receptor with zero and an . D. A receptor is

47:35 To three aisles One potassium -80 sodium 55 calcium 125 for yourself. So

47:48 reversal potential in these receptor channel somewhat a reflection of relative concentrations and flexes

47:56 ions through these specific channels. Okay it cannot just be calculated. It

48:04 to be measured. Once it's measured it can be applied and calculated in

48:10 reverse manner. Once you d polarize south to positive 30 positive 60.

48:15 does not really happen physiologically. But can see that these channels are very

48:20 d. Polarized potentials in voltage And then you repeat the same experiment

48:25 you remove magnesium from extra cellular That means there's no magnesium and an

48:30 . D. A receptor in the of looting made at minus 60 mil

48:35 . It's opening and it's opening a and it's staying open a lot.

48:41 you remove magnesium you have massive deep . Is that massive activation of NMDA

48:48 ? zero. Magnesium is also a for hyper excitability, seizures and

48:55 Because if you remove magnesium now and M. D. A receptor gets

49:00 with all of the glutamate being D. Polarizes lots of conductance causes

49:06 activity causes synchrony. And so it's important that an M. B.

49:11 . And magnesium levels and NBA Magnesium levels are being shot them extra

49:17 solution all of the time. So where acetylcholine receptor reverses. Zero.

49:27 vault. What about and play potential junction? Zero normal. What about

49:39 receptor? Zero normals. What about PSP zero normals. So that's zero

49:49 is important. And it's uh when said it's arbitrary to the outside the

49:55 value. It's interesting how some of major components of the system would fall

50:01 that zero value that we chose Another . Remember I. Ve plots ivy

50:12 are I stands for current and the for voltage. So if you have

50:18 current here in this direction it's inward and the positive fecal sample values represent

50:25 currents. Now we're going to use crime and I'm gonna measure the

50:32 V. Curves for the empire which the early component E. S.

50:38 . And for an M. A. Receptor channel which is the

50:41 component of the PSP. So in experiment now we're going to use all

50:46 these brains and all of the techniques you learned in the last couple of

50:52 voltage clamp. It allows you to for potential. So it allows you

50:56 look at different currents, allows you use pharmacology to belong different kinds of

51:01 potential. Good with that. This blip here is is stimulating releasing

51:07 Not just stimulus is you're releasing glutamate there's little blip here and then you're

51:12 for synaptic response and fasten optical. see this inward current coming in and

51:20 you say, okay I know what gonna do is I'm gonna measure this

51:24 component. The non an M. . A component which is ample Kinney

51:29 and I'm gonna measure it only about milliseconds following the stimulation. So just

51:36 milliseconds following the stimulus. I'm gonna this dashed line here and I'm going

51:41 take a measurement but this early So at every voltage minus 80 minus

51:48 20 0 plus 20 plus for I'm going to have a measurement after

51:54 of this current. Just like you earlier when we looked at that reversals

52:00 sodium are in the action potential. these triangles either closed or filled or

52:10 Is the measurement for the early component says that the -100. There was

52:15 lot of this early -40. It to zero. It reversed. There's

52:22 current zero million. Also the early . Just approving that ample which is

52:27 early component reverses its zero more And then it continued a millimeter like

52:34 . So now you have not only but now you have a deep plot

52:38 is the linear plot for the early which is ampara receptor component in that

52:48 experiment. I'm also gonna say I'm interested in measuring the length opponent.

52:54 I want to have an ivy plot the late component. Leave component as

53:00 NBA. This after channel as I to you and I'm going to take

53:03 second dash line measurement maybe about 20 following the stimulus. Yeah. And

53:13 at -80 of -100 At -80. is my closed closed circle here.

53:22 not seeing much current. The current close to zero at -60. I

53:27 seeing some current of -40. Is more current was a little bit more

53:32 than it reverses it zero and then closed circle here is an India conductance

53:39 the positive all the potential. Okay now I know that my leave component

53:47 NBA component has a non linear I've and it actually prefers to conduct in

53:55 outward fashion. So if I were bring the potential to zero and then

54:00 areas after would be conducting much stronger the outward fashion Then it would be

54:05 -52. The inward fashion. These all important components when you're modeling the

54:11 when you're modeling conductance is when you're to understand and mathematically recreate these conducting

54:18 models which is very important from both and theoretical perspective and now you realize

54:27 okay so what I'm measuring here is late component that this blew this whole

54:33 area under this blue curve essentially is late component is the component that comes

54:39 an M. D. A And now I'm really smart too because

54:46 know how to use voltage clown, know how to produce ivy plots So

54:52 can model and talk to friends in math department but I also am really

54:59 because I can use nerve pharmacology and I applied glutamate and stimulated and measure

55:07 lead component. I'm now going to to my friends and the pharmacology department

55:12 borrow a little bit of aptv and this a PV. And essentially when

55:18 apply a PV this whole blue component going to disappear and going to get

55:25 and if you repeat the measurement of late component in the presence of a

55:31 which is an NMDA receptor blocker. can again measure the early component and

55:37 or filled in open triangles. It matter. Doesn't affect early component at

55:43 because this block is specific to nmB specific to the late component of the

55:50 . But when you apply it you these open circles on the lead component

55:55 this is the curve For the block NBA receptive delayed component which was essentially

56:01 to zero line mm biology. Nothing is zero. It doesn't stay at

56:06 for long. Always fluctuates. So a little bit of remaining current here

56:12 small but it's very close to zero and that tells you that this is

56:17 P. D. Is a specific . It to the late component is

56:21 specific block. It and N. . A component and it does not

56:26 the early component and two component but will block this nonlinear played an

56:31 A component of the PSP. Great an exam questions from this but but

56:42 think that if you understood the voltage you understood the ivies in the

56:47 This is all coming together nicely for . Yeah Glutamate gated channels calcium intelligently

56:57 several locations so we talked about Still Colin we're talking about Gleiberman.

57:06 gonna talk about Gabba today. So have a few more slides to go

57:11 . And if you look at the receptors which are ruminate receptors. But

57:16 mentioned in the previous slide as I that all in NBA receptors impermeable with

57:20 calcium but only certain Emperor receptor supermodel the council. All permissible to sodium

57:26 potassium but only certain Emperor receptor supermodel the council. And now if you

57:31 we studied the trans membrane segments and voltage gated sodium channels as one as

57:36 as three or four. So now looking at this glutamate receptor channel which

57:42 a number of subunits. Um has trans membrane M. One M two

57:46 three and four does remembering segments. is a very large sequence of amino

57:54 sequence and long sequence three dimensional. ordinary Centenary structures, false sheets.

58:04 how important is one amino acid in sequence. It can be very important

58:12 the sequence of Emperor receptor has a . In it which stands for glutamate

58:17 an additive uh emperor receptor. It allow for calcium conductance. So if

58:23 apply glutamate can you measure uh sodium ? Who detect sodium conductance? Yeah

58:32 is an emperor sector. So you sodium conductance and you're also detecting a

58:38 calcium conductance here. But if you in that very long I mean as

58:45 chain and substitute or removed. And substituted with arginine. Are you

58:53 now apply glutamate and you'll still see currents but there will no longer be

59:00 calcium flux is through that channel. how important are these sequences going back

59:10 roderick Mackinnon studies Identifying sequences that gate and closing of the channel. Now

59:18 talking about one it's not closing and of the channel, but one amino

59:24 decides whether this channel will allow for or not. Remember calcium is not

59:28 much about changing number of potential as as changing the intracellular processes inside the

59:36 that's really potent. Again we go to that same lock and key

59:42 you messed up one tiny piece of lock and that's it. The door

59:47 no longer open or it doesn't open . Montecatini is a development. And

59:57 enough when we talk about the developing CMS synopsis, they only contain an

60:02 . D. A receptor is they have amperage separates. Glutamate gets released

60:07 the synopsis and the synopsis are referred in called a silent synopsis. Why

60:13 they silent because you need a lot deep polarization in order to open those

60:20 M. D. A receptor And there's glutamate that is being

60:24 There's no ample receptors to cause the deep polarization. And so the synopsis

60:28 silent and those synapses during early development be woken up a very large deep

60:35 stimuli. External stimuli internal chemical stimuli not just by minute, minute

60:42 And excited terry synopsis. Um And . D. A receptor has sub

60:50 . And uh and R. two R. to be at the sub

60:55 . And remember that these proteins are up of multiple different subunits groups.

61:06 and these multiple different sub units shift their composition So there could be two

61:14 to beta and gamma. And then are the predominant receptors of day one

61:22 birth and the date 21 Post They rearrange they rearrange the subunits so

61:29 ratio on our 28 and are to changes cellular location and activity dependent Obviously

61:37 NBA receptors a coincidence detector. It's activity, detective activity increased on that

61:42 can cost an active activity. There changes in the expression and AMP on

61:48 M. D. A. Receptor ample receptors And the receptors can also

61:54 located extra synaptic allowed outside the synaptic . I'm for receptor in particular is

62:00 fast and it can travel through this mosaic membrane into the synopsis. Can

62:05 imported in the way into the synopsis it can travel micro meters in milliseconds

62:15 travels very fast. So when you about cellular protein channels that are insertions

62:21 inside it's one way to enhance that . Remember it's all do that glia

62:26 control the amount of modem empathy is for neurons. Mhm. And now

62:32 plus synaptic neuron is like I want be active. I want to be

62:35 . I'm not getting enough blood to that that that pre synaptic neuron is

62:41 me down. Mhm. But I my own powers fasten attic neuron.

62:47 own power is I'm gonna import more receptors into the synapse more than the

62:56 . Why? Because just a little and made now is still going to

62:59 significant for me. So these are pre synaptic fasten optic strategies. An

63:05 on an NBA can both move through numbering. They don't need to be

63:09 inserted from the cell into the An ample moves fast and an

63:16 D. A receptor is tied to different forms of plasticity. We talked

63:21 on in this course that you can certain synopsis or potentially ate them.

63:26 become stronger potential hated that potentially asian be long term and sustained and you

63:33 also depress, weaken synapses or eliminate altogether. The ones that are not

63:39 . So you have this depression also be long lasting. We also talked

63:45 spike timing dependent plasticity which is the between the pre synaptic activity and parson

63:52 response and M. D. A . Pre synaptic activity And the textbooks

63:58 responses placed very perfectly at the intersection what some of the necessary mechanisms for

64:05 south to have these forms of Whether the short term long term forms

64:10 plasticity that's why it's activity dependent Its activity dependent learning if you start

64:16 wall you don't learn much, there's much activity on an empty wife wall

64:23 activity dependent processes activity dependent learning linking synaptic vipassana, linking pre synaptic signaling

64:32 chemicals blew them A plus and that motivate response, spike timing dependent plasticity

64:40 an MBA is very very important for forms of this plasticity. And you

64:44 see in the review articles if you scientific literature and the few articles you

64:50 see even separate sections for an D. A. Dependent and

64:55 D. A. Receptor an D. A. Dependent plasticity plasticity

65:00 models and rules for the south's that based on an NBA areas after.

65:06 . By the way, I don't time maybe today but maybe sometime in

65:12 future I'd like to remind you that you walk onto uhh libraries using your

65:18 and that idea and password, you access so much cool literature, original

65:24 , review articles, books, some old you can borrow things that

65:31 doesn't have through what is called inter loan. So you find something you

65:37 know it's not at us and says you can actually access it because you

65:41 a choice will have an agreement with medical center library with other libraries that

65:46 larger national libraries and you can get really cool article. But let's say

65:52 want to Look at 1920s article you probably get it uh in pdf in

65:59 two days or so by this If it's not available to you immediately

66:05 uh look up pop mod and started up through some of the articles.

66:11 started talking about this because a lot times students are scared of reading the

66:18 and when you download a special an is your undergraduate student you are very

66:24 maybe. Uh and that is something just comes with time and territory like

66:32 everything you have to learn, you how you first pick up an app

66:35 for parking and you're confused and where the zone number that I enter?

66:39 it's just going to work. Am going to get a ticket? You

66:42 as a reminder gonna go through and on the fifth time your parking,

66:45 know the zone is there, you're away all cool. You know,

66:50 coming through you know it's easier. the same way the scientific literature,

66:55 police authority pickles and if it's intimidating a couple of things, read the

67:02 . And a lot of the modern will have a graphic graphical abstract which

67:09 in a very quick way, should able to convey information mouse molecule X

67:16 this cell. Did this. This really what you're going to read

67:21 So if you can understand the abstract you can understand the graphical abstract do

67:27 first. And if you're ever entering a new area, a new protein

67:35 molecule model disease always go to review first because review articles will broadly explain

67:42 you what is this? What is X. It will broadly explain to

67:49 . Then go to original scientific literature say you're hunting for the new molecule

67:53 something but it's very complex and so get scared and you're like, I'm

67:59 gonna do this. All right you at the last minute and then you

68:02 remember something 15 minutes, answer the or answer questions and you're gone.

68:08 understand the graphical concept the abstract. next thing you do is you go

68:13 figures. Read the material and look the figures and that's when you go

68:20 to methods. A lot of students the abstract and a lot of journal

68:24 will have abstracting and methods. You reading methods C N. Q X

68:29 P. D. Magnesium zero. like what in the world? But

68:34 read the thing is we wanted to in an epilepsy model, this is

68:38 figure. And then what is the tomorrow you go back and say okay

68:42 zero magnesium and that opens an NBA . Now you understand the methods behind

68:48 the last word of advice if you to read the literature will be is

68:54 discussion section allows for scientists to predict to fantasize to excuse themselves by saying

69:03 is not perfect work by no So please don't hold me fully for

69:10 . There's going to be better students my lab will be even better

69:15 Okay, predict because we saw this we partly prove the hypothesis. We

69:22 the answer to the next secret The number's gone behind the next corner

69:29 fantasize If I had $1 million dollars a billion dollars. Mhm. And

69:38 I say sky is the limit, is no longer the limit right

69:43 Three dudes been there already. What they for? More than three And

69:49 too. There's a mosque Branson of . Who's going to get me 1st

70:01 now you know the Sky's going around to live in two. So this

70:05 with the discussion section. If you're for new trends, I have an

70:11 from somebody telling you like what are new trends And Alzheimer's disease discussion

70:16 Review articles a lot of times at end. Well, where are we

70:19 with this kind of? What's the of this therapy electromagnetic simulation. What's

70:24 future of this? And you're oh the future? What's interesting for

70:28 , you know? So anyways let's on this path. Oh my

70:33 I'm running out of time trying to to the medical tropic signaling. But

70:39 the google make receptor binds to the tropic receptive will activate this cascade here

70:45 P. I. P. It will split this P.

70:47 P. Two molecule one that will membrane bound Dia sollecito de Gea.

70:53 one. But we'll go into cytoplasm hospital triphosphate I. P.

70:57 I'd be three will bind to the . P. Three receptor calcium channels

71:02 is located in smooth and the plasma and cause further release of calcium.

71:07 you have the calcium induced calcium release for cellular early And this dag will

71:13 with protein kinase C. And calcium interact and rev up and start activating

71:19 kindnesses. Calcium module, independent And in all of these cascades medical

71:25 cascades will be regulating the amounts of kindnesses post thoroughly and foster tasers to

71:32 correlate the challenge. Gaba particular gobble channel. Yeah. To a channel

71:38 iron. A tropic Gaba receptor When gabble binds to Gaba receptor,

71:44 happens when it binds to the Gaba receptor? Gabble binding will cause influx

71:51 chloride and you will have hyper Gabby is a medical tropic G protein

71:59 receptors. So typically they have seven member in sub units and activation of

72:05 receptor by goblin can cost two things open potassium channel and cause influx of

72:12 more hyper polarization or this is prison or Priest pasin article and Prison

72:19 It can block calcium channels so it regulate neurotransmitter release. Hang with me

72:26 a second. Let's first look at very popular channel. A lot of

72:33 bond to that channel if you want increase inhibition in the brain If there's

72:38 much excitation you know the child is and running around give them drugs given

72:46 put him down arbitrary, it's it's active. Too busy. A PhD

72:51 . Let's do it. We'll get at school to give a DVD medications

72:56 some counties. So what is Gaba inhibition? Okay so the brain activity

73:05 inhibited benzodiazepines. Benzos will buy into . There's a very classic anti epileptic

73:12 seizure medications. There's no anti epileptic . This is anticonvulsant drugs.

73:18 it's a seizure and anticonvulsant medication and stop seizures by increasing inhibition. Barbiturates

73:25 put you down uh sedatives, they through the Gabba reception there steroids also

73:34 and control of information Also I think Gaba a receptor that's an all martini

73:42 hour, One or two causes So usually a person is quiet three

73:48 4 dancing on the table. Too inhibition. We have desensitization and you

73:56 disinhibition of inhibition. So all of are targeting Gaba a receptor and chloride

74:05 . Yeah baby receptors linked to g complex. And if you look at

74:11 Gabba and Gabba be signaling. This some of the work that I did

74:16 I was a crazy graduate student we the cells and you can see the

74:21 . P. S be excited for response here immediately. The C.

74:25 . S. P. Gets checked Gaba a mediated I PSP. The

74:29 conductance is and with some delay because the activation of jeopardy in couple of

74:34 stop turn and subsequently opening of the channel. You see further hyper polarization

74:40 was the gavel. B. What happens if you block Yabba

74:46 With the curriculum is a specific antagonist blocker for gobble A. Instead of

74:51 small response in Guam followed by Now you get this massive massive response

74:59 depressurization. So you can see how excited to inhibit their synapses and activation

75:05 excited to intercept is followed by an within the same networks. Really check

75:10 control the amount of deep polarization and polarization of these sounds. And finally

75:17 I was going to go over this which places it all together for you

75:23 I don't think I'm going to talk you anymore today and I'm going to

75:28 it for the next lecture. But you want to review it yourself before

75:34 this is really cool diagram that puts lot of things in the perspective Gaba

75:39 inhibitory synapse. Blue dramaturgy excited tourists how the Gabba functions in the

75:46 how Gabba spillover can affect excited their . So when we come back on

75:52 we'll review this, we'll have two slides on the synaptic transmission and we

75:58 move into the cNS brain parts and and functions of the cNS. So

76:06 out for registration for your quiz this . And if there's any issues or

76:12 , please email me or dress it class on thursday. Thank you.
