| Abstract | The dynamics of intracellular Ca$^{2+}$ signal in response to NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate, 30 μM) or KA (kainite, 30 μM), its dependence on extracellular Ca$^{2+}$ and the mechanisms of KA-triggered Ca$^{2+}$ entry into neurons have been tested in neurons of rat cortical primary cultures. The level of intracellular free Ca$^{2+}$ concentrations ([Ca$^{2+}$]$_{i}$) was evaluated on Leica SP5 MF confocal microscope using Fluo-3 fluorescent dye, which resolves changes in [Ca$^{2+}$]$_{i}$ in the micromolar range. The dynamics of [Ca$^{2+}$]$_{i}$ increase in response to NMDA and KA was different but in both cases the [Ca$^{2+}$]$_{i}$ increase required the presence of Ca$^{2+}$ in the extracellular solution. The neuronal population was found to be heterogeneous, based on the response to KA applied together with either L-type calcium channel blocker nifedipine (3 μM) or IEM-1460 (3 μM), a blocker of Ca$^{2+}$-permeable AMPAR (α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor) lacking GluR2 subunit. Experiments exhibited three types of calcium responses, characteristically belonging to interneurons (expressing Ca$^{2+}$-permeable AMPAR), pyramidal neurons (with AMPAR containing GluR2, making them impermeable to Ca$^{2+}$), and intermediate type of cells expressing both AMPAR types. Thus, we have demonstrated the role of AMPAR and L-type calcium channels in KA-triggered Ca$^{2+}$ entry into neurons. The dynamics of [Ca$^{2+}$]$_{i}$ during the KA treatment was shown to depend on subunit composition of particular AMPAR subtype expressed in neurons. The data suggest that neuronal types existing in adult cortical tissue are probably presented in primary culture, too. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
