Abstract
General anaesthetics (GA) have been in continuous clinical use for more than 170 years, with millions of young and elderly populations exposed to GA to relieve perioperative discomfort and carry out invasive examinations. Preclinical studies have shown that neonatal rodents with acute and chronic exposure to GA suffer from memory and learning deficits, likely due to an imbalance between excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters, which has been linked to neurodevelopmental disorders. However, the mechanisms behind anaesthesia-induced alterations in late postnatal mice have yet to be established. In this narrative review, we present the current state of knowledge on early life anaesthesia exposure-mediated alterations of genetic expression, focusing on insights gathered on propofol, ketamine, and isoflurane, as well as the relationship between network effects and subsequent biochemical changes that lead to long-term neurocognitive abnormalities. Our review provides strong evidence and a clear picture of anaesthetic agents' pathological events and associated transcriptional changes, which will provide new insights for researchers to elucidate the core ideas and gain an in-depth understanding of molecular and genetic mechanisms. These findings are also helpful in generating more evidence for understanding the exacerbated neuropathology, impaired cognition, and LTP due to acute and chronic exposure to anaesthetics, which will be beneficial for the prevention and treatment of many diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease. Given the many procedures in medical practice that require continuous or multiple exposures to anaesthetics, our review will provide great insight into the possible adverse impact of these substances on the human brain and cognition.

Abstract
KCC2, best known as the neuron-specific chloride-extruder that sets the strength and polarity of GABAergic currents during neuronal maturation, is a multifunctional molecule that can regulate cytoskeletal dynamics via its C-terminal domain (CTD). We describe the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in the multiple functions of KCC2 and its splice variants, ranging from developmental apoptosis and the control of early network events to the formation and plasticity of cortical dendritic spines. The versatility of KCC2 actions at the cellular and subcellular levels is also evident in mature neurons during plasticity, disease, and aging. Thus, KCC2 has emerged as one of the most important molecules that shape the overall neuronal phenotype.

Neurobiol Learn Mem 2021; 179:107385.

Abstract
We study the relations between different learning paradigms and enduring changes in excitatory synaptic transmission. Here we show that auditory fear conditioning (AFC), but not olfactory fear conditioning (OFC) training, led to enduring enhancement in AMPA-mediated miniature EPSCs (mEPSCs). Moreover, olfactory unpaired training led to a stable significant reduction in excitatory synaptic transmission. However, olfactory discrimination learning (OD) did not modulate postsynaptic AMPA-mediated mEPSCs in LA. The p21-activated kinase (PAK) activity, previously shown to have a key role in maintaining persistent long-lasting enhancement in synaptic inhibition after OFC, has an opposing effect on excitatory synaptic transmission. PAK maintained the level of excitatory synaptic transmission in the amygdala in all experimental groups, except in neurons in the OFC trained rats. PAK also maintained excitatory synaptic transmission in all neurons of auditory fear conditioning and naïve training groups except in neurons of the auditory safety learning. Safety learning was previously shown in our study to enhance synaptic inhibition. We thus suggest that PAK maintains inhibitory synaptic transmission in a learning-dependent manner and on the other hand affects excitatory synaptic transmission only in groups where learning has not affected inhibitory transmission. Thus, PAK controls learning-induced changes in the excitation/inhibition balance.

Abstract
Neuropathic pain is characterized by spontaneous pain, pain sensations, and tactile allodynia. The pain sensory system normally functions under a fine balance between excitation and inhibition. Neuropathic pain arises when this balance is lost for some reason. In past reports, various mechanisms of neuropathic pain development have been reported, one of which is the downregulation of K+-Cl--cotransporter-2 (KCC2) expression. In fact, various neuropathic pain models indicate a decrease in KCC2 expression. This decrease in KCC2 expression is often due to a brain-derived neurotrophic factor that is released from microglia. However, a similar reaction has been reported in astrocytes, and it is unclear whether astrocytes or microglia are more important. This review discusses the hypothesis that astrocytes have a crucial influence on the alteration of KCC2 expression.

Oruro EM, Pardo GVE, Lucion AB, Calcagnotto ME, Idiart MAP. The maturational characteristics of the GABA input in the anterior piriform cortex may also contribute to the rapid learning of the maternal odor during the sensitive period. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2020; 27:493-502. [PMID: 33199474 PMCID: PMC7670864 DOI: 10.1101/lm.052217.120] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2020] [Accepted: 09/27/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
During the first ten postnatal days (P), infant rodents can learn olfactory preferences for novel odors if they are paired with thermo-tactile stimuli that mimic components of maternal care. After P10, the thermo-tactile pairing becomes ineffective for conditioning. The current explanation for this change in associative learning is the alteration in the norepinephrine (NE) inputs from the locus coeruleus (LC) to the olfactory bulb (OB) and the anterior piriform cortex (aPC). By combining patch-clamp electrophysiology and computational simulations, we showed in a recent work that a transitory high responsiveness of the OB-aPC circuit to the maternal odor is an alternative mechanism that could also explain early olfactory preference learning and its cessation after P10. That result relied solely on the maturational properties of the aPC pyramidal cells. However, the GABAergic system undergoes important changes during the same period. To address the importance of the maturation of the GABAergic system for early olfactory learning, we incorporated data from the GABA inputs, obtained from in vitro patch-clamp experiment in the aPC of rat pups aged P5–P7 reported here, to the model proposed in our previous publication. In the younger than P10 OB-aPC circuit with GABA synaptic input, the number of responsive aPC pyramidal cells to the conditioned maternal odor was amplified in 30% compared to the circuit without GABAergic input. When compared with the circuit with other younger than P10 OB-aPC circuit with adult GABAergic input profile, this amplification was 88%. Together, our results suggest that during the olfactory preference learning in younger than P10, the GABAergic synaptic input presumably acts by depolarizing the aPC pyramidal neurons in such a way that it leads to the amplification of the pyramidal neurons response to the conditioned maternal odor. Furthermore, our results suggest that during this developmental period, the aPC pyramidal cells themselves seem to resolve the apparent lack of GABAergic synaptic inhibition by a strong firing adaptation in response to increased depolarizing inputs.
