Akaneya Y, Sohya K, Kitamura A, Kimura F, Washburn C, Zhou R, et al.
PLoS One . 2010 Sep; 5(8):e12486. PMID: 20824214
Background: Synaptogenesis is a fundamental step in neuronal development. For spiny glutamatergic synapses in hippocampus and cortex, synaptogenesis involves adhesion of pre and postsynaptic membranes, delivery and anchorage of pre...

Methods Mol Biol . 2010 Mar; 623:313-24. PMID: 20217560
RNA interference (RNAi) is a gene silencing phenomenon that is induced by ribonucleoprotein complexes containing 21-28 nucleotides (nt) of double-stranded RNA (si/miRNA). Although this phenomenon occurs in an inherent manner,...

Akaneya Y
Gene Regul Syst Bio . 2009 Nov; 1:83-9. PMID: 19936099
Prostanoids have a broad spectrum of biological activities in a variety of organs including the brain. However, their effects on synaptic plasticity in the brain, which have been recently revealed,...

Eur J Neurosci . 2007 Apr; 25(6):1641-6. PMID: 17432955
In the developing visual cortex, the expression of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPAR) subunit GluR4 precedes that of the other AMPAR subunits GluR1-3, and then declines to become almost absent in...

J Neurosci . 2006 Oct; 26(40):10209-21. PMID: 17021176
Although prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) has a broad spectrum of biological activities that have been confirmed by previous studies, the roles of PGE2 in synaptic plasticity such as long-term potentiation (LTP)...

Akaneya Y, Jiang B, Tsumoto T
J Neurophysiol . 2004 Dec; 93(1):594-602. PMID: 15604463
Genetic manipulation for "knockout" (KO) is a useful tool for characterizing a target gene. However, its shortcomings that need to be overcome hinder its easy and ready usage in ordinary...

J Neurosci . 2003 May; 23(9):3761-70. PMID: 12736347
Low-frequency stimulation (LFS) at 1 Hz for 15 min is an effective protocol to induce homosynaptic long-term depression (LTD) in visual cortical slices. It is reported that LFS becomes ineffective...
