Lu V, Colmers W, Smith P
Neuroscience . 2009 Apr; 161(4):1135-43. PMID: 19376198
Chronic constriction injury (CCI) of rat sciatic nerve produces a specific pattern of electrophysiological changes in the superficial dorsal horn that lead to central sensitization that is associated with neuropathic...

Pentney A, Baraban S, Colmers W
J Neurophysiol . 2002 Nov; 88(5):2745-54. PMID: 12424309
Neuronal migration disorders (NMDs) can be associated with neurological dysfunction such as mental retardation, and clusters of disorganized cells (heterotopias) often act as seizure foci in medically intractable partial epilepsies....

Cowley M, Pronchuk N, Fan W, Dinulescu D, Colmers W, Cone R
Neuron . 2000 Feb; 24(1):155-63. PMID: 10677034
Energy stores are held relatively constant in many mammals. The circuitry necessary for maintaining energy homeostasis should (1) sense the amount of energy stored in adipose tissue, (2) sense and...

Ho M, Beck-Sickinger A, Colmers W
J Neurophysiol . 2000 Feb; 83(2):723-34. PMID: 10669488
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) potently inhibits excitatory synaptic transmission in the hippocampus, acting predominantly via a presynaptic Y(2) receptor. Recent reports that the Y(5) receptor may mediate the anticonvulsant actions of...

Vezzani A, Sperk G, Colmers W
Trends Neurosci . 1999 Mar; 22(1):25-30. PMID: 10088996
The high concentration of the tyrosine-rich polypeptide, neuropeptide Y (NPY), and the increase in the number of its receptor subtypes that have been characterized in the brain, raise the question...

Bindokas V, Lee C, Colmers W, Miller R
J Neurosci . 1998 Jun; 18(12):4570-87. PMID: 9614233
Digital imaging microfluorimetry was used to visualize changes in mitochondrial potential and intracellular Ca2+ concentration, [Ca2+]i, in thick slices of rat hippocampus. Electrical activity, especially stimulus train-induced bursting (STIB) activity,...

Qian J, Colmers W, Saggau P
J Neurosci . 1997 Oct; 17(21):8169-77. PMID: 9334392
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) agonists inhibit glutamate release by a presynaptic action at the CA3-CA1 synapse of rat hippocampus. We have examined the relationship between [Capre]t via presynaptic, voltage-dependent calcium channels...

Klapstein G, Colmers W
J Neurophysiol . 1997 Oct; 78(3):1651-61. PMID: 9310450
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) potently inhibits glutamate-mediated synaptic transmission in areas CA1 and CA3 of the rat hippocampus without affecting other synaptic inputs onto principal cells of the hippocampal formation, suggesting...

McQuiston A, Colmers W
J Neurophysiol . 1996 Nov; 76(5):3159-68. PMID: 8930263
1. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) inhibits synaptic excitation in hippocampal area CA3. We studied its site of action with the use of whole cell patch-clamp recordings from CA3 pyramidal cells of...
