| Abstract | Activity driven Ca$^{2+}$ signaling is an important regulator of neuronal development. Early developing Purkinje neurons (postnatal day 5–7) prior to the stage of dendritic development express a somatic Ca$^{2+}$ signaling pathway that is electrically driven and communicates information from the cell membrane to the cytosol and nucleus. In the current studies, we examined the properties and potential functional role of this pathway using acutely isolated Purkinje neurons from postnatal day 5–7 rat pups and brief K$^{+}$ stimulation to activate the pathway. Results show that the amplitude of the nuclear Ca$^{2+}$ 1signal increases as a function of the cytosolic Ca$^{2+}$ signal but is larger than the cytosolic Ca$^{2+}$ signal at strong K$^{+}$ stimulations. Both L-type and P-type Ca$^{2+}$ channels contribute to the Ca$^{2+}$ signal. We also show using semiquantitative immunohistochemical methods that activation of this Ca$^{2+}$ signaling pathway results in activation the transcription factor CREB and that L-type Ca$^{2+}$ channels play a prominent role in this effect. The level of cfos, a transcription factor whose expression is regulated by CREB, was also increased by K$^{+}$ stimulation. K$^{+}$ stimulation also altered the level of the Ca$^{2+}$ binding protein calbindin, an effect that involved L-type Ca$^{2+}$ channels. The relationship between increases in Ca$^{2+}$ and calbindin expression was bell-shaped, with high levels of Ca$^{2+}$ decreasing calbindin expression. The level of the transmitter GABA was also increased by K$^{+}$ stimulation but this effect was not dependent on L-type Ca$^{2+}$ channels. Taken together, these results support a role for L-type channels in the phenotypic expression of Purkinje neuron properties during early development and suggest that the different activity patterns of early developing Purkinje neurons could be one mechanism for signaling the induction of specific genes through differences in cytosolic or nuclear Ca$^{2+}$. |

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.
