Albert Einstein College of Medicine (Einstein) is a graduate school of Yeshiva University. It is a not-for-profit, private, nonsectarian medical school located on the Jack and Pearl Resnick Campus in the Morris Park neighborhood of the borough of the Bronx of New York City. In addition to medical degrees, Einstein offers graduate biomedical degrees through the Sue Golding Graduate Division. Allen M. Spiegel, M.D., has served as The Marilyn and Stanley M. Katz Dean since June 1, 2006.

Khodakhah Lab and the Cerebellum: A Love Story
Khodakhah Lab and the Cerebellum: A Love StoryAECOM, Kennedy 506. Beautiful view of parking lot. http://www.aecom.yu.edu/kamlab Karina Alviña, Paola Calderón, Johanna Dizon, Sung-Min Park, Esra Tara, Joy Walter, and Kamran Khodakhah Examining inhibition’s role in Purkinje cell firing rate modulation The cerebellum coordinates the body through its principal neuron, the Purkinje cell. The Purkinje cell integrates over 150,000 cortical and sensory inputs to generate the signals for coordinated movement. Those signals are in the form of a rate code that modulates from the intrinsic rate of ~50 Hz to span from ~1 to ~250 Hz. Firing rates under ~50 Hz require some form of net inhibition from inhibitory interneurons: basket cells and stellate cells. However, their strengths relative to each other and the role of a single interneuron in Purkinje cell firing rate modulation remain unclear. We will clarify these issues using a spike train stimulus protocol in basket and stellate cells while recording from a connected Purkinje cell. Question: Can a single interneuron sustain a GABA conductance to shunt a Purkinje cell’s intrinsic inward currents? A B A. Recording configuration: Purkinje cells are voltage-clamped at -60 mV with a high Cl internal solution. Interneurons are stimulated either extracellularly or in a loose-patch configuration. B. PC IPSCs elicited from an interneuron (basket cell) stimulated at 100 Hz for 1 second (only first four IPSC... |

Khodakhah Lab and the Cerebellum: A Love Story
Khodakhah Lab and the Cerebellum: A Love StoryAECOM, Kennedy 506. Beautiful view of parking lot. Karina Alviña, Paola Calderón, Johanna Dizon, Kathryn Harper, Caroline Hoang, Joy Walter, Kamran Khodakhah free cytosolic Ca2+ UV pulse InsP3-mediated Ca2+ release in Purkinje cells Cytosolic calcium is tightly regulated such that the concentration inside the cell is thousands-folds lower compared to outside the cell. This enables small increases in cytosolic calcium to act as a signaling mechanism within cells. Activation of inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate (InsP3) receptors releases calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum, thereby increasing cytosolic calcium levels. Calcium release from these receptors can signal for diverse cellular processes such as gene transcription, fertilization, and transmitter release. The absence of a functional InsP3 receptor in mice results in motor dis-coordination (ataxia) which is associated with impairments in cerebellar Purkinje cells. Ideally, if calcium release through InsP3 receptors is used as a signaling mechanism in Purkinje cells then they should be suited to respond to the fast pace of neuronal activity. In non-neuronal tissues InsP3 signaling is slow, requiring hundreds of seconds between release periods due to calcium inactivation. Currently, the time course for recovery between release periods for InsP3 receptors in intact Purkinje cells is not known. Question: Has InsP3 signaling in Purkinje cells adapted to cope with the fast pace of neuronal activity? Methods A ... |
