Modulation of excitatory glutamatergic transmission at corticostriatal synapses by a metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) was examined using a newly developed cell culture preparation in which small explants of cortical tissue are grown in co-culture with isolated striatal neurons. Electrical stimulation of cortical tissue evoked excitatory postsynaptic currents (eEPSCs) observed during tight-seal,...
Striatal spiny neurons are selectively vulnerable in Huntington's disease (HD). No effective treatment is available to limit neuronal death in this pathological condition. In an experimental model of HD, a beneficial effect has recently been reported by the neuroprotective agent riluzole. We performed intracellular recordings in order to characterize the electrophysiological effects of this compound...
