Orlando C, Ster J, Gerber U, Fawcett J, Raineteau O
J Neurosci
. 2012 Dec;
32(50):18009-17, 18017a.
PMID: 23238717
During early postnatal development of the CNS, neuronal networks are configured through the formation, elimination, and remodeling of dendritic spines, the sites of most excitatory synaptic connections. The closure of...

PLoS One
. 2012 Sep;
7(8):e43417.
PMID: 22937048
In the cerebellar glomerulus, GABAergic synapses formed by Golgi cells regulate excitatory transmission from mossy fibers to granule cells through feed-forward and feedback mechanisms. In acute cerebellar slices, we found...

Coiret G, Ster J, Grewe B, Wendling F, Helmchen F, Gerber U, et al.
PLoS One
. 2012 May;
7(5):e37320.
PMID: 22615976
Astrocytes are integral functional components of synapses, regulating transmission and plasticity. They have also been implicated in the pathogenesis of epilepsy, although their precise roles have not been comprehensively characterized....

Demont-Guignard S, Benquet P, Gerber U, Biraben A, Martin B, Wendling F
Ann Neurol
. 2012 Mar;
71(3):342-52.
PMID: 22451202
Objective: In partial epilepsies, interictal epileptic spikes (IESs) and fast ripples (FRs) represent clinically relevant biomarkers characteristic of epileptogenic networks. However, their specific significance and the pathophysiological changes leading to...

Schatzle P, Ster J, Verbich D, McKinney R, Gerber U, Sonderegger P, et al.
J Physiol
. 2011 Jul;
589(17):4353-64.
PMID: 21768266
A key feature at excitatory synapses is the remodelling of dendritic spines, which in conjunction with receptor trafficking modifies the efficacy of neurotransmission. Here we investigated whether activation of cholinergic...

Ster J, Mateos J, Grewe B, Coiret G, Corti C, Corsi M, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2011 Jun;
108(24):9993-7.
PMID: 21628565
Impaired function or expression of group II metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRIIs) is observed in brain disorders such as schizophrenia. This class of receptor is thought to modulate activity of neuronal...

J Neurosci
. 2010 Jan;
30(4):1471-5.
PMID: 20107074
Two forms of homosynaptic long-term depression (LTD) are distinguished in hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells, one which is NMDA receptor dependent and the other metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) dependent. Although the...

IEEE Trans Biomed Eng
. 2009 Aug;
56(12):2782-95.
PMID: 19651549
The pathophysiological interpretation of EEG signals recorded with depth electrodes [i.e., local field potentials (LFPs)] during interictal (between seizures) or ictal (during seizures) periods is fundamental in the presurgical evaluation...

Cell
. 2009 Mar;
136(6):1161-71.
PMID: 19303856
The synaptic serine protease neurotrypsin is essential for cognitive function, as its deficiency in humans results in severe mental retardation. Recently, we demonstrated the activity-dependent release of neurotrypsin from presynaptic...

. 2008 Feb;

PMID: 18272081
Transient global ischemia induces delayed neuronal death in certain cell types and brain regions while sparing cells in other areas. A key process through which oxygen-glucose deprivation triggers cell death...
