Our new Methods manuscript describing dynamic clamp electrophysiology was recently published. We will add a companion video within a few weeks. The sample experiments involve rescuing firing deficits in Tsc1-deleted Purkinje neurons. app.jove.com/t/69155/dynamic…

A study long in the making! Initiated at WashU and completed at Miami, our work demonstrates that the functional role of ion channel proteins can differ significantly depending on the type of neuron in which they are expressed.
FGF14 encodes a sodium channel accessory subunit. Ransdell, Nerbonne et al. @washumedicine show that targeted Fgf14 deletion in mouse CA1 pyramidal neurons causes increased firing, revealing cell-type specific effects. hubs.la/Q03l3gl00 #Nerve #CellularPhysiology

TSC1 LOF mutations are monogenic causes of ASD. Mice with Purkinje neuron-specific Tsc1 deletion have several ASD-like behaviors. Here, Sam and Achintya (co 1st-authors) show these PNs have problems with AP firing due to a loss of Na channels at the AIS pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4001…

Of no major consequence of course, but a quick mention that I have moved over to #Bluesky if anyone is interested. Still only rarely posting, and almost exclusively scientific/academic content. Stay well. superapis.bsky.social

My tribute to the wonderful PhD students with whom I’ve worked is to add their diss. seminar trifold to the “shelf of scholars” in my office. CONGRATS to Dr. Sherryl Henderson for defending her thesis this morning!! I am proud to call you my colleague and friend. @MizzouBiology

At @SFN23, Sam Brown presented his dynamic clamp experiments showing the resurgent sodium current (INaR) does not affect the firing rates of central neurons. Instead, INaR tunes the availability of persistent sodium current. Check out the preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
