Abstract：
:In the neonate forebrain, network formation is driven by the spontaneous synchronized activity of pyramidal cells and interneurons, consisting of bursts of electrical activity and intracellular Ca2+ oscillations. By employing ratiometric Na+ imaging in tissue slices obtained from animals at postnatal day 2-4 (P2-4), we found that 20% of pyramidal neurons and 44% of astrocytes in neonatal mouse hippocampus also exhibit transient fluctuations in intracellular Na+. These occurred at very low frequencies (~2/h), were exceptionally long (~8 min), and strongly declined after the first postnatal week. Similar Na+ fluctuations were also observed in the neonate neocortex. In the hippocampus, Na+ elevations in both cell types were diminished when blocking action potential generation with tetrodotoxin. Neuronal Na+ fluctuations were significantly reduced by bicuculline, suggesting the involvement of GABAA-receptors in their generation. Astrocytic signals, by contrast, were neither blocked by inhibition of receptors and/or transporters for different transmitters including GABA and glutamate, nor of various Na+-dependent transporters or Na+-permeable channels. In summary, our results demonstrate for the first time that neonatal astrocytes and neurons display spontaneous ultraslow Na+ fluctuations. While neuronal Na+ signals apparently largely rely on suprathreshold GABAergic excitation, astrocytic Na+ signals, albeit being dependent on neuronal action potentials, appear to have a separate trigger and mechanism, the source of which remains unclear at present.
