Calcium Imaging and Field Potential Analysis of Autocrine Neuromodulation in the Locus Coeruleus of Newborn Rat Brain Slices
DownloadFall 2022
The locus coeruleus (LC) is a small brainstem nucleus that controls diverse behaviours and brain functions via release of noradrenaline (NA) in the neonatal time period. There is increasing evidence of complexity in this neuron-astrocyte ‘neural’ network that remains mostly unexplored in...

Modulation of Spontaneous Neural Network Bursting in Newborn Rat Brain Slices by Extracellular Calcium, Methylxanthines, and Opioids
DownloadFall 2012
Spontaneous neuronal bursting appears to be pivotal for brain maturation. This thesis studied such synchronized neural network oscillations in immature newborn rat hippocampus, cortex, and locus coeruleus. For this, horizontal brain slices were generated for (simultaneous) suction electrode...
