Beschreibung:
Wakefulness is driven by the widespread release of neuromodulators by the ascending arousal system. Yet, it is unclear how these substances orchestrate state-dependent, global changes in neuronal activity. Here, we show that neuromodulators induce increases in the extracellular K(+) concentration ([K(+)]e) in cortical slices electrically silenced by tetrodotoxin. In vivo, arousal was linked to AMPA receptor-independent elevations of [K(+)]e concomitant with decreases in [Ca(2+)]e, [Mg(2+)]e, [H(+)]e, and the extracellular volume. Opposite, natural sleep and anesthesia reduced [K(+)]e while increasing [Ca(2+)]e, [Mg(2+)]e, and [H(+)]e as well as the extracellular volume. Local cortical activity of sleeping mice could be readily converted to the stereotypical electroencephalography pattern of wakefulness by simply imposing a change in the extracellular ion composition. Thus, extracellular ions control the state-dependent patterns of neural activity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ding, Fengfei -- O'Donnell, John -- Xu, Qiwu -- Kang, Ning -- Goldman, Nanna -- Nedergaard, Maiken -- NS078167/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS078304/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2016 Apr 29;352(6285):550-5. doi: 10.1126/science.aad4821.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Translational Neuromedicine, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester, NY 14642, USA.
