Abstract
Exposure by women to stressors before pregnancy increases their risk of contracting prenatal depression, a condition which typically may require antidepressant treatment. And even though such perinatal antidepressant treatment is generally considered to be safe. For the mother, its effects on the development and functioning of the offspring`s brain remain unknown. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of pregestational chronic unpredictable stress (CUS) and perinatal bupropion on the anxiety behavior and firing activity of the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) serotonin (5-HT) neurons. Female rats underwent CUS for three weeks before mating. Bupropion was administered to them from gestation day ten until their offspring were weaned. Behavioral (elevated plus maze or EPM test) and neurophysiological (single-unit in vivo electrophysiology) assessments were performed on offspring who reached the age of 48-56 days. We found that maternal CUS and perinatal bupropion, as separate factors on their own, did not change offspring behavior. There was, however, an interaction between their effects on the number of entries to the open arms and time spent in the intersection: maternal CUS tended to decrease these values, and perinatal bupropion tended to diminish CUS effect. Maternal CUS increased the firing activity of 5-HT neurons in males, but not females. Perinatal bupropion did not alter the firing activity of 5-HT neurons but tended to potentiate the maternal CUS-induced increase in 5-HT neuronal firing activity. The CUS-induced increase in firing activity of 5-HT neurons might be a compensatory mechanism that diminishes the negative effects of maternal stress. Perinatal bupropion does not alter the offspring`s anxiety and firing activity of 5-HT, but it does intervene in the effects of maternal stress.

Abstract
SNC80 was designed as a highly selective nonpeptide delta opioid receptor (DOR) agonist. Antidepressant-like and antinociceptive effects of this compound were demonstrated in animal models. Naltrindole was synthetized as a highly selective DOR antagonist. Its antitussive and antinociceptive effects were reported. Observed effects of SNC80 and naltrindole may be accompanied by changes in neuronal excitability including modulation of voltage-dependent ion channels. We investigated possible DOR-independent modulation of neuronal sodium, calcium and potassium currents by both agents. NG108-15 cells lacking expression of DOR protein were used as model of neuronal cells. Cells were differentiated into neuronal phenotype by exposure to dibutyryl cyclic-AMP (dbcAMP). Lack of DORs expression in NG108-15 cells and the presence of DOR expression in brain and neuronal cultures were demonstrated by Western blot analysis. Both SNC80 and naltrindole exerted low to moderate modulatory effects on voltage-dependent ion currents. SNC80 weakly inhibited sodium current, potentiated calcium current, and did not act on potassium channels. Naltrindole inhibited sodium current, did not act on calcium current and inhibited potassium current at a high concentration. Such effects should be taken into account when these compounds are used for investigation of DOR-mediated signaling pathways.

Abstract
DNA condensation, structure and transfection efficiency of complexes formed by gemini surfactants alkane-α,ω-diyl-bis(dodecyldimethylammonium bromide)s (CnGS12, n = 3, 6 and 12 is the number of alkane spacer carbons), dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (CnGS12/DOPE = 0.3 mol/mol) and DNA at low surface charge density were investigated through different techniques. Small angle X-ray diffraction showed a condensed lamellar phase with marked dependence of DNA-DNA distance on (+/-) charge ratio. High ionic strength of hydrating medium screens the interaction DNA - CnGS12/DOPE and complexed DNA represented maximally ~ 45-60% of total DNA in the solution as derived from fluorescence and UV-VIS spectroscopy. The in vitro transfection efficiency of CnGS12/DOPE liposomes on mammalian HEK 293 cell line was spacer length-dependent. C12GS12/DOPE/DNA complexes exhibited the best transfection efficiency (~ 18% GFP-expressing cells relative to all viable cells) accompanied by ~ 89% cell viability.

Abstract
Abstract
Family of T-type or low-voltage activated calcium channels consists of three members: CaV3.1, CaV3.2, and CaV3.3. CaV3.2 channel has almost identical biophysical properties as the CaV3.1 channel, but is distinguished by a specific tissue expression profile and a prominent role in several pathologies, including neuropathic pain, epilepsy, and dysregulation of cardiac rhythm. Further, it may be involved in phenotype of autism spectrum disorders, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. It represents a promising target for future pharmacotherapies.

Abstract
Background The antidepressant effect of physical exercise has been reported in several clinical and animal studies. Since serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine play a central role in depression, it is possible that the beneficial effects of physical exercise are mediated via monoamine pathways. This study investigates the effects of voluntary wheel running on the excitability of monoamine neurons. Materials and Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were used in the study. Voluntary wheel running (VWR) rats were housed in individual cages with free access to a running wheel, while control animals were housed in standard laboratory cages. After three weeks, the rats were anesthetized, and in vivo electrophysiological recordings were taken from dorsal raphe nucleus serotonin neurons, locus coeruleus norepinephrine neurons, and ventral tegmental dopamine neurons. Results VWR stimulated activity in serotonin, but not in norepinephrine or dopamine neurons. Subsequently, acute administration of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor escitalopram in control rats led to complete suppression of serotonin neurons; this suppression was reversed by subsequent administration of selective antagonist of serotonin-1A receptors, WAY100135. Escitalopram induced only partial inhibition of serotonin neurons in the VWR rats while WAY100135 increased the firing activity of serotonin neurons above the baseline value. Conclusions The beneficial effect of physical exercise on mood is mediated, at least in part, via activation of serotonin neurons. Physical exercise can potentiate the response to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors by increasing the basal firing activity and diminishing selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor-induced inhibition of serotonin neurons.

Abstract
Acute injury of central nervous system (CNS) starts a cascade of morphological, molecular, and functional changes including formation of a fibrotic scar, expression of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1), and expression of extracellular matrix proteins leading to arrested neurite outgrowth and failed regeneration. We assessed alteration of electrophysiological properties of cerebellar granule cells (CGCs) in two in vitro models of neuronal injury: (i) model of fibrotic scar created from coculture of meningeal fibroblasts and cerebral astrocytes with addition of TGF-β1; (ii) a simplified model based on administration of TGF-β1 to CGCs culture. Both models reproduced suppression of neurite outgrowth caused by neuronal injury, which was equally restored by chondroitinase ABC (ChABC), a key disruptor of fibrotic scar formation. Voltage-dependent calcium current was not affected in either injury model. However, intracellular calcium concentration could be altered as an expression of inositol trisphosphate receptor type 1 was suppressed by TGF-β1 and restored by ChABC. Voltage-dependent sodium current was significantly suppressed in CGCs cultured on a model of fibrotic scar and was only partly restored by ChABC. Administration of TGF-β1 significantly shifted current-voltage relation of sodium current toward more positive membrane potential without change to maximal current amplitude. Both transient and sustained potassium currents were significantly suppressed on a fibrotic scar and restored by ChABC to their control amplitudes. In contrast, TGF-β1 itself significantly upregulated transient and did not change sustained potassium current. Observed changes of voltage-dependent ion currents may contribute to known morphological and functional changes in injured CNS.

Abstract
Low-voltage-activated CaV3 channels are distinguished among other voltage-activated calcium channels by the most negative voltage activation threshold. The voltage dependence of current activation is virtually identical in all three CaV3 channels while the current kinetics of the CaV3.3 current is one order slower than that of the CaV3.1 and CaV3.2 channels. We have analyzed the voltage dependence and kinetics of charge (Q) movement in human recombinant CaV3.3 and CaV3.1 channels. The voltage dependence of voltage sensor activation (Qon-V) of the CaV3.3 channel was significantly shifted with respect to that of the CaV3.1 channel by +18.6 mV and the kinetic of Qon activation in the CaV3.3 channel was significantly slower than that of the CaV3.1 channel. Removal of the gating brake in the intracellular loop connecting repeats I and II in the CaV3.3 channel in the ID12 mutant channel shifted the Qon-V relation to a value even more negative than that for the CaV3.1 channel. The kinetic of Qon activation was not significantly different between ID12 and CaV3.1 channels. Deletion of the gating brake in the CaV3.1 channel resulted in a GD12 channel with the voltage dependence of the gating current activation significantly shifted toward more negative potentials. The Qon kinetic was not significantly altered. ID12 and GD12 mutants did not differ significantly in voltage dependence nor in the kinetic of voltage sensor activation. In conclusion, the putative gating brake in the intracellular loop connecting repeats I and II controls the gating current of the CaV3 channels. We suggest that activation of the voltage sensor in domain I is limiting both the voltage dependence and the kinetics of CaV3 channel activation.

Abstract
PC12 cells differentiated under the influence of the neuronal growth factor (NGF) serve as a model of both sympathetic neurons and chromaffin cells. NGF-induced differentiation critically depends on elevated intracellular calcium concentration. Main pathway for Ca²⁺ entry in excitable cells is represented by voltage-dependent calcium channels including L-type calcium channels (LTCC). We investigated role of Ca(V)1.2 and Ca(V)1.3 LTCC subtypes in NGF-differentiated PC12 cells. The expression of LTCC subtypes was downregulated by transfection of NGF-differentiated PC12 cells with siRNA for either CACNA1C or CACNA1D gene. Efficiency of gene silencing was verified by RT-PCR and by functional essay. The dominant LTCC subtype in PC12 cells was Ca(V)1.2. Downregulation of either LTCC significantly hyperpolarized the resting membrane potential. Expression of mRNA for intracellular calcium transporters inositol trisphosphate receptor type 1, 2 and 3, ryanodine receptor type 1 and 2 and sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ ATPase type 2 as well as plasma membrane transporters Na⁺-Ca²⁺ exchanger type 1 and 2 was not altered in the absence of either LTCC subtype. In conclusion, Ca²⁺ influx through Ca(V)1.2 or to Ca(V)1.3 channel subtypes contributes to maintenance of the resting membrane potentials of NGF-differentiated PC12 cells but is not required for regulation of expression of genes for calcium-transporting proteins.

Abstract
Cerebrocrast is a novel lipophilic dihydropyridine derivative with potential neuroprotective and antidiabetic properties. We have analyzed its interaction with L-type (CaV1.2b) and T-type (CaV3.1) calcium channels using a whole-cell patch clamp in HEK 293 cells. Cerebrocrast inhibited current flux through both CaV1.2b and CaV3.1 channels. In both cases, the drug was about 10-fold less effective than neutral dihydropyridines, but more efficient than the charged dihydropyridine amlodipine. IC50 values for the CaV1.2b channel were 586 ± 96 nmol/L and 178 ± 78 nmol/L at holding potentials of –80 mV and –50 mV, respectively. Approximately 50 µmol/L of cerebrocrast was needed to block 50% of the current amplitude in the CaV3.1 channel, but this inhibition was not facilitated by shifting the holding potential from –100 mV to –70 mV. Cerebrocrast did not alter current kinetics in either investigated channel, and the inhibition of calcium current was partly reversible or irreversible. In conclusion, the interaction of cerebrocrast with CaV3.1 lacked the typical characteristics of a state-dependent interaction, and voltage-dependent inhibition of CaV1.2b was consistent with partial interaction with the inactivated state of the channel.
