Abstract
In adults, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) type A receptor (GABAAR)-mediated inhibition depends on the maintenance of low intracellular chloride anion concentration through neuron-specific potassium-chloride cotransporter-2 (KCC2). KCC2 has been widely reported to have a plasticity change during the course of epilepsy development, with an early downregulation and late recovery in neuronal cell membranes after epileptic stimulation, which facilitates epileptiform burst activity. Furosemide is a clinical loop diuretic that inhibits KCC2. Here, we first confirmed that furosemide pretreatment could effectively prevented convulsant stimulation-induced neuronal membrane KCC2 downregulation in the hippocampus in both in vivo and in vitro cyclothiazide-induced seizure model. Second, we verified that furosemide pretreatment rescued KCC2 function deficits, as indicated by E GABA depolarizing shift and GABAAR inhibitory function impairment induced via cyclothiazide treatment. Further, we demonstrated that furosemide also suppressed cyclothiazide-induced epileptiform burst activity in cultured hippocampal neurons and lowered the mortality rate during acute seizure induction. Overall, furosemide prevents membrane KCC2 downregulation during acute seizure induction, restores KCC2-mediated GABA inhibition, and interrupts the progression from acute seizure to epileptogenesis.

PLoS One 2022; 17:e0265078. [PMID: 35263381 PMCID: PMC8906582 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0265078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2021] [Accepted: 02/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of this paper was to investigate the influence of four different external factors (acetylcholine, ethanol, temperature and lidocaine hydrochloride) on PC12 quasi-neuronal networks by multielectrode-array-based Voltage Threshold Measurement Method (VTMM). At first, VTMM was employed to measure the lowest amplitude of the voltage stimulating pulses that could just trigger the action potential from PC12 quasi-neuronal networks under normal conditions, and the amplitude was defined as the normal voltage threshold (VTh). Then the changes of the VTh of PC12 quasi-neuronal networks treated by the four external factors were tested respectively. The results showed the normal VTh of PC12 quasi-neuronal networks was 36 mV. The VTh has negative correlation with the concentration of acetylcholine and has positive correlation with the concentration of ethanol. The curves of the correlation of the VTh with temperature and the concentration of lidocaine hydrochloride were U-shaped and Λ-shaped respectively. Comparing with our earlier studies on hippocampal neuronal networks and hippocampal slices, PC12 quasi-neuronal networks not only had the same typical voltage threshold characteristic, but also had similar changes on electrical excitability when treated by the four external factors mentioned above. Therefore, the rapid-formed PC12 quasi-neuronal networks could replace neuronal networks in proper conditions, and VTMM could be used to analyze the influence of external factors on the electrical excitability of PC12 quasi-neuronal networks.

Abstract
Insights into chloride regulation in neurons have come slowly, but they are likely to be critical for our understanding of how the brain works. The reason is that the intracellular Cl- level ([Cl-]i) is the key determinant of synaptic inhibitory function, and this in turn dictates all manner of neuronal network function. The true impact on the network will only be apparent, however, if Cl- is measured at many locations at once (multiple neurons, and also across the subcellular compartments of single neurons), which realistically, can only be achieved using imaging. The development of genetically-encoded anion biosensors (GABs) brings the additional benefit that Cl- imaging may be done in identified cell-classes and hopefully in subcellular compartments. Here, we describe the historical background and motivation behind the development of these sensors and how they have been used so far. There are, however, still major limitations for their use, the most important being the fact that all GABs are sensitive to both pH and Cl-. Disambiguating the two signals has proved a major challenge, but there are potential solutions; notable among these is ClopHensor, which has now been developed for in vivo measurements of both ion species. We also speculate on how these biosensors may yet be improved, and how this could advance our understanding of Cl- regulation and its impact on brain function.

Abstract
Developmental, cellular, and subcellular variations in the direction of neuronal Cl- currents elicited by GABAA receptor activation have been frequently reported. We found a corresponding variance in the GABAA receptor reversal potential (EGABA) for synapses originating from individual interneurons onto a single pyramidal cell. These findings suggest a similar heterogeneity in the cytoplasmic intracellular concentration of chloride ([Cl-]i) in individual dendrites. We determined [Cl-]i in the murine hippocampus and cerebral cortex of both sexes by (1) two-photon imaging of the Cl--sensitive, ratiometric fluorescent protein SuperClomeleon; (2) Fluorescence Lifetime IMaging (FLIM) of the Cl--sensitive fluorophore MEQ (6-methoxy-N-ethylquinolinium); and (3) electrophysiological measurements of EGABA by pressure application of GABA and RuBi-GABA uncaging. Fluorometric and electrophysiological estimates of local [Cl-]i were highly correlated. [Cl-]i microdomains persisted after pharmacological inhibition of cation-chloride cotransporters, but were progressively modified after inhibiting the polymerization of the anionic biopolymer actin. These methods collectively demonstrated stable [Cl-]i microdomains in individual neurons in vitro and in vivo and the role of immobile anions in its stability. Our results highlight the existence of functionally significant neuronal Cl- microdomains that modify the impact of GABAergic inputs.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Microdomains of varying chloride concentrations in the neuronal cytoplasm are a predictable consequence of the inhomogeneous distribution of anionic polymers such as actin, tubulin, and nucleic acids. Here, we demonstrate the existence and stability of these microdomains, as well as the consequence for GABAergic synaptic signaling: each interneuron produces a postsynaptic GABAA response with a unique reversal potential. In individual hippocampal pyramidal cells, the range of GABAA reversal potentials evoked by stimulating different interneurons was >20 mV. Some interneurons generated postsynaptic responses in pyramidal cells that reversed at potentials beyond what would be considered purely inhibitory. Cytoplasmic chloride microdomains enable each pyramidal cell to maintain a compendium of unique postsynaptic responses to the activity of individual interneurons.

Abstract
Lidocaine hydrochloride (LC-HCl) and morphine hydrochloride (Mor-HCl) are two kinds of most prevalently used anesthetics. However, their influences on electrical excitability of hippocampal neuronal networks and hippocampal brain slices were rarely studied. Previously, our group have assessed the influence of acetylcholine, alcohol and temperature change on the excitability of neural networks with the so-called Voltage Threshold Measurement Method (VTMM) based on microelectrode array (MEA). In this paper, we will study the influence of LC-HCl and Mor-HCl on the electrical excitability of neural networks and the morphological features of neurons, and discuss the relations between the changes of electrical excitability of neural networks and the morphological changes of neurons. The results of VTMM showed: The voltage threshold (VTh) of hippocampal neuronal networks and hippocampal brain slices first increased and then decreased as the LC-HCl concentration increased. The VTh of hippocampal neuronal networks and hippocampal brain slices increased as the Mor-HCl concentration increased. The results of HCS experiments showed: The neurite length change of cultured hippocampal neuronal networks increased first and then decreased with increased LC-HCl concentration, but decreased as the Mor-HCl concentration increased. The combined analysis of VTMM and HCS experiments showed that under effects of the two drugs, the VTh and the hippocampal neurite length were strongly negatively correlated.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Local anesthetics are widely used in clinical practice. While toxicity is rare, these drugs can cause potentially lethal seizures. OBJECTIVE In the present study, we investigated the electrocorticographic (ECoG) and electromyographic patterns of seizures induced by acute lidocaine (LA) toxicity and treated with anticonvulsant drugs. The study used adult male Wistar rats to describe of the seizure-related behavior of LA and investigated the treatment with anticonvulsant drugs. RESULTS The use of LA resulted in clear changes in the ECoG pattern, which presented characteristics of Status epilepticus, with increased intensity in all brainwaves. The decomposition of the cerebral waves showed an increase in the beta and gamma waves that may be related to tonic-clonic seizure. Although the treatment with anticonvulsants drugs reduces the power of brainwaves at frequencies between 1 and 40 Hz compared to the LA group, but only diazepam (DZP) was able to decrease the intensity of oscillations. The muscle contraction power also indicated a difference in the effectiveness of the three treatments. CONCLUSION The sum of the evidence indicates that LA causes status epilepticus and that DZP is the most effective treatment for the control of these seizures, by restoring the systemic values to levels close to those recorded in the control group.

Abstract
The role of glycine and GABA as inhibitory neurotransmitters in the adult vertebrate nervous system has been well characterized in a variety of model systems, including the auditory, which is particularly well suited for analyzing inhibitory neurotransmission. However, a full understanding of glycinergic and GABAergic transmission requires profound knowledge of how the precise organization of such synapses emerges. Likewise, the role of glycinergic and GABAergic signaling during development, including the dynamic changes in regulation of cytosolic chloride via chloride cotransporters, needs to be thoroughly understood. Recent literature has elucidated the developmental expression of many of the molecular components that comprise the inhibitory synaptic phenotype. An equally important focus of research has revealed the critical role of glycinergic and GABAergic signaling in sculpting different developmental aspects in the auditory system. This review examines the current literature detailing the expression patterns and function (chapter 1), as well as the regulation and pharmacology of chloride cotransporters (chapter 2). Of particular importance is the ontogeny of glycinergic and GABAergic transmission (chapter 3). The review also surveys the recent work on the signaling role of these two major inhibitory neurotransmitters in the developing auditory system (chapter 4) and concludes with an overview of areas for further research (chapter 5).
