As they are causal to synaptic transmission, alterations to the structure of these channels can lead to a variety of neurological and psychiatric diseases. The Kv3 subfamily of voltage-gated potassium channels are found on many neurons in the brain, including inhibitory interneurons where they contribute to fast-frequency firing. Changes to the firing ability of these interneurons can lead to an imbalance of inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmission. To date, we have little understanding of the mechanism by which excitatory and inhibitory inputs become imbalanced. This imbalance is associated with cognitive deficits seen across neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders, which are currently difficult to treat. In this review, we collate evidence supporting the hypothesis that voltage-gated potassium channels, specifically the Kv3 subfamily, are central to many neurological and psychiatric disorders, and may thus be considered as an effective drug target. The collective evidence provided by the studies reviewed here demonstrates that Kv3 channels may be amenable to novel treatments that modulate the activity of these channels, with the prospect of improved patient outcome.</p>","PeriodicalId":12432,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11473391/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142461927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After treatment, the cell's FA and NAE profiles and pro-inflammatory molecule expression were analyzed. Our results demonstrated that CLA isomers mitigate LPS-induced morphological changes in BV-2 cells and reduce gene expression and protein levels of inflammatory markers. This effect was linked to an upregulation of acyl-CoA oxidase 1, a key enzyme in the anti-inflammatory peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway that efficiently metabolizes CLA isomers. Notably, t10,c12-CLA significantly suppressed stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1, impacting monounsaturated fatty acid synthesis. The NAEs profile was remarkably altered by CLA isomers, with a significant release of the anti-neuroinflammatory mediator docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)-derived <i>N-</i>acylethanolamine (DHAEA).

The gut microbiota plays a critical role in maintaining physiological homeostasis and influences various aspects of human health, particularly via the gut brain axis. Since 2017, the challenging concept of the gut-retina axis has emerged thanks to a network analysis emphasizing the potential role of the gut microbiota disruption in the development of the age-related macular degeneration and further retinal damages. Many other ocular disorders have been linked to the dysbiosis of the gut microbiota, including uveitis and glaucoma. It has been shown that age related macular degeneration can be prevented or reversed using a diet that induces changes in the gut microbiota. The potential link between the gut microbiota as well as others types of microbiota such as the ocular surface microbiota and the development/progression of age related as well as inherited retinal degenerations and other degenerative eye diseases, has recently been broadened. Therefore, the pathogenesis of several eye diseases has recently been associated with a larger perception called the gut eye axis.

In schizophrenia, working memory impairments are thought to result from alterations of microcircuitry within the DLPFC. GABAergic interneurons, in particular, are crucially involved in synchronizing neural activity at gamma frequency, the power of which increases with working memory load. Alterations of GABAergic interneurons, particularly parvalbumin (PV) and somatostatin (SST) subtypes, are frequently observed in schizophrenia. Abnormalities of GABAergic neurotransmission, such as deficiencies in the 67 kDA isoform of GABA synthesis enzyme (GAD67), vesicular GABA transporter (vGAT), and GABA reuptake transporter 1 (GAT1) in presynaptic boutons, as well as postsynaptic alterations in GABA <sub><i>A</i></sub> receptor subunits further contribute to impaired inhibition. This review explores GABAergic abnormalities of the postmortem DLPFC in schizophrenia, with a focus on the roles of interneuron subtypes involved in cognition, and GABAergic neurotransmission within presynaptic boutons and postsynaptic alterations. Where available, comparisons between schizophrenia and affective disorders that share cognitive pathology such as bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder will be made.

AVP neurons are present in the accessory olfactory bulb (AOB), which is the first relay in the vomeronasal system and has been demonstrated to be a critical site for mating-induced mate recognition (olfactory memory) in female mice. The transmission of information from the AOB to higher centers is controlled by the dendrodendritic recurrent inhibition, i.e., inhibitory postsynaptic currents (IPSCs) generated in mitral cells by recurrent dendrodendritic inhibitory inputs from granule cells. These reports suggest that AVP might play an important role in regulating dendrodendritic inhibition in the AOB. To test this hypothesis, we examined the effects of extracellularly applied AVP on synaptic responses measured from mitral and granule cells in slice preparations from 23--36-day-old Balb/c mice. To evoke dendrodendritic inhibition in a mitral cell, depolarizing voltages of -70 to 0 mV (10 ms duration) were applied to a mitral cell using a conventional whole-cell configuration. We found that AVP significantly reduced the IPSCs. The suppressive effects of AVP on the IPSCs was diminished by an antagonist for vasopressin receptor 1a (V1aR) (Manning compound), but not by an antagonist for vasopressin receptor 1b (SSR149415). An agonist for V1aRs [(Phe<sup>2</sup>)OVT] mimicked the action of AVP on IPSCs. Additionally, AVP significantly suppressed voltage-activated currents in granule cells without affecting the magnitude of the response of mitral cells to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).
