Abstract:
:The temporal lobe is well known for its oscillatory activity associated with exploration, navigation, and learning. Intrinsic membrane potential oscillations (MPOs) and resonance of stellate cells (SCs) in layer II of the entorhinal cortex are thought to contribute to network oscillations and thereby to the encoding of spatial information. Generation of both MPOs and resonance relies on the expression of specific voltage-dependent ion currents such as the hyperpolarization-activated cation current (I(H)), the persistent sodium current (I(NaP)), and the noninactivating muscarine-modulated potassium current (I(M)). However, the differential contributions of these currents remain a matter of debate. We therefore examined how they modify neuronal excitability near threshold and generation of near-threshold MPOs and resonance in vitro. We found that resonance mainly relied on I(H) and was reduced by I(H) blockers and modulated by cAMP and an I(M) enhancer but that neither of the currents exhibited full control over MPOs in these cells. As previously reported, I(H) controlled a theta-frequency component of MPOs such that blockade of I(H) resulted in fewer regular oscillations that retained low-frequency components and high peak amplitude. However, pharmacological inhibition and augmentation of I(M) also affected MPO frequencies and amplitudes. In contrast to other cell types, inhibition of I(NaP) did not result in suppression of MPOs but only in a moderation of their properties. We reproduced the experimentally observed effects in a single-compartment stochastic model of SCs, providing further insight into the interactions between different ionic conductances.
