- 1 August 1991
1. We have developed a 19-compartment cable model of a guinea pig CA3 pyramidal neuron. Each compartment is allowed to contain six active ionic conductances: gNa, gCa, gK(DR) (where DR stands for… Expand
Spread of synchronous firing in longitudinal slices from the CA3 region of the hippocampus.

- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of neurophysiology
- 1 October 1988
1. Mechanisms underlying the propagation of synchronous epileptiform activity in disinhibited hippocampal slices were examined in experimental and computer simulation studies. 2. Experiments were… Expand
Excitatory synaptic interactions between CA3 neurones in the guinea‐pig hippocampus.
Excitatory synaptic interactions between CA3 neurones in slices from guinea‐pig hippocampus were examined. Recurrent excitatory post‐synaptic potentials (e.p.s.p.s) were evoked by action potentials… Expand
Cellular mechanism of neuronal synchronization in epilepsy.

- 14 May 1982
Interictal spikes are a simple kind of epileptic neuronal activity. Field potentials and intracellular recordings observed during interictal spikes of penicillin-treated slices of the hippocampus… Expand
Calcium current activation kinetics in isolated pyramidal neurones of the Ca1 region of the mature guinea‐pig hippocampus.
1. Neurones were isolated from the CA1 region of the guinea‐pig hippocampus and subjected to the whole‐cell mode of voltage clamping, to determine the kinetics of voltage‐gated Ca2+ channel… Expand
Lovastatin Corrects Excess Protein Synthesis and Prevents Epileptogenesis in a Mouse Model of Fragile X Syndrome

- 23 January 2013
Many neuropsychiatric symptoms of fragile X syndrome (FXS) are believed to be a consequence of altered regulation of protein synthesis at synapses. We discovered that lovastatin, a drug that is… Expand
Inhibitory control of local excitatory circuits in the guinea‐pig hippocampus.
1. Exposure to the gamma‐aminobutyric acid antagonist, picrotoxin, causes the discharge of hippocampal pyramidal cells to become synchronized. Synaptic mechanisms underlying the development of… Expand
Intradendritic recordings from hippocampal neurons.

- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences…
- 1 February 1979
Dendritic activity in guinea pig hippocampal CA1 and CA3 pyramidal neurons was examined by using an in vitro preparation. Histologically confirmed intradendritic recordings showed that dendrites had… Expand
Isolation of neurons suitable for patch-clamping from adult mammalian central nervous systems
A method is described for the isolation of neurons from defined regions of the mammalian central nervous system, by a combination of mechanical and enzymatic means. The procedure liberates neurons… Expand
