Cooling Abolishes Neuronal Network Synchronization in Rat Hippocampal Slices

Abstract: Summary:Purpose: We sought to determine whether cooling brain tissue from 34 to 21°C could abolish tetany-induced neuronal network synchronization (gamma oscillations) without blocking normal synaptic transmission.Methods: Intracellular and extracellular electrodes recorded activity in transverse hippocampal slices (450-500 m) from Sprague-Dawley male rats, maintained in an air-fluid interface chamber. Gamma oscillations were evoked by afferent stimulation at 100 Hz for 200 ms. Baseline temperature in the reco… Show more

“…Our recordings indicate that a 1 °C npg change in temperature correlates with an alteration of oscillation frequency of 2.3 Hz (a 9.2% change per degree). Our results are in line with a previous report in interface slices [18] , which showed an 8.3% reduction in frequency per degree of change in CCh-induced oscillations, and another report in hippocampal slices [19] , which showed an 8.8% reduction per degree in tetanically evoked γ oscillations. Temperaturerelated changes in the oscillation frequency are likely associated with changes in inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP) duration.…”

“…We did observe though a tendency to spreading depression while at Ͼ40°C, observing it in nine cases at an average temperature of 41.2°C (data not shown). The relation between increased synchronization and epilepsy is such that cooling has been used to treat epilepsy (Rothman 2009;Rothman et al 2005), since decreasing temperature from 34 to 21°C reduced synchronization in hippocampal slices (Javedan et al 2002;Motamedi et al 2006).…”

“…Lowering temperature has been reported to decrease synchronization in the hippocampal network (Javedan et al 2002;Motamedi et al 2006) and, for that reason, it has been used to decrease epileptic activity (Rothman 2009;Rothman et al 2005). On the contrary, higher temperatures increase gamma synchronization in the hippocampus (Wu et al 2001).…”

“…Anti-inflammatory [4] and pain relieving [5] effects of low temperatures are also often indicated. Other re search supports significant benefits of cryogenic treat ments in curing of the peripheral nervous system and the muscular system [6][7][8][9], as well as the central nervous system [10][11][12]. A positive effect of low temperatures on the mental state has also been observed [13,14].…”
