NF-κB-dependent Signaling Pathway02:26

NF-κB-dependent Signaling Pathway

10.1K
The transcription factor NF-κB was discovered in 1986 in the lab of Nobel laureate Professor David Baltimore, for its interaction with the immunoglobulin light chain enhancer in B-cells. After more than three decades of study, it is now evident that NF-κB regulates the expression of over 100 genes. Most of these genes play an essential role in the innate and adaptive immune responses as well as the inflammatory responses of animals.

cAMP-dependent Protein Kinase Pathways

8.5K
Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate (cAMP) is an essential second messenger that activates protein kinase A (PKA) and regulates various biological processes. A single epinephrine molecule binds to GPCR and activates several heterotrimeric G proteins, each stimulating multiple adenylyl cyclase, amplifying the signal, and synthesizing large numbers of cAMP molecules. Small changes in cAMP concentration affect PKA activity. The binding of four cAMP molecules induces a conformational change in PKA,...

The Aufbau Principle and Hund's Rule

73.0K
To determine the electron configuration for any particular atom, we can build the structures in the order of atomic numbers. Beginning with hydrogen, and continuing across the periods of the periodic table, we add one proton at a time to the nucleus and one electron to the proper subshell until we have described the electron configurations of all the elements. This procedure is called the aufbau principle, from the German word aufbau (“to build up”). Each added electron occupies the...

Lewis Symbols and the Octet Rule

Chemical bonds are complex interactions between two or more atoms or ions, which reduce the potential energy of the molecule. Gilbert N. Lewis developed a model called the Lewis model that simplified the depiction of chemical bond formation and provided straightforward explanations for the chemical bonds seen in most common compounds.

The Quotient Rule01:30

The Quotient Rule

The quotient rule is a fundamental differentiation technique in calculus used to differentiate functions expressed as a ratio of two differentiable functions. Given a function of the form:Where g(x) and h(x) are both differentiable and h(x) ≠ 0, the derivative of f(x) is given by:Example:The quotient rule is beneficial when differentiating rational functions, trigonometric ratios, and exponential functions. For example, given:applying the quotient rule,This rule is essential in solving...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Synaptic plasticity, including spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP), can be non-monotonic and influenced by multiple interacting pathways. Understanding these complex dynamics is crucial for a complete description of learning and memory engrams.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Computational Neuroscience
  • Biophysics

Background:

  • Hebbian plasticity and spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) are fundamental to synaptic learning.
  • Traditionally, STDP is viewed as a monotonic process.
  • Calcium-based mechanisms are key to STDP induction and maintenance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To challenge the monotonicity hypothesis of STDP.
  • To investigate how multiple plasticity pathways dynamically affect synaptic plasticity.
  • To develop a general mathematical model for diverse STDP forms.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a general class of mathematical models based on calcium transients.
  • Modeled competing and cooperating calcium-based plasticity mechanisms.
  • Validated the model against striatal STDP involving endocannabinoid and NMDAR pathways.

Main Results:

  • The model accurately reproduces striatal STDP.
  • Predicted effects of stimulus frequency on plasticity and triplet rules.
  • Demonstrated that multiple pathways can lead to varied plasticities even with identical long-term outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • Synaptic plasticity is not solely dependent on fixed pairing numbers and frequencies.
  • A comprehensive understanding requires considering the full spectrum of activity-dependent parameters.
  • This approach offers insights into engram formation and synaptic plasticity dynamics.
