- W3081586810 abstract "Astrocyte heterogeneity is an emerging concept in which astrocytes within or between brain regions show variable morphological and/or gene expression profiles that presumably reflect different functional roles. Recent evidence indicates that retrotrapezoid nucleus (RTN) astrocytes sense changes in tissue CO2/ H+ to regulate respiratory activity; however, mechanism(s) by which they do so remain unclear. Alterations in inward K+ currents represent a potential mechanism by which CO2 /H+ signals may be conveyed to neurons. Here, we use slice electrophysiology in rats of either sex to show that RTN astrocytes intrinsically respond to CO2 /H+ by inhibition of an inward rectifying potassium (Kir ) conductance and depolarization of the membrane, while cortical astrocytes do not exhibit such CO2 /H+ -sensitive properties. Application of Ba2+ mimics the effect of CO2 /H+ on RTN astrocytes as measured by reductions in astrocyte Kir -like currents and increased RTN neuronal firing. These CO2 /H+ -sensitive currents increase developmentally, in parallel to an increased expression in Kir 4.1 and Kir 5.1 in the brainstem. Finally, the involvement of Kir 5.1 in the CO2 /H+ -sensitive current was verified using a Kir5.1 KO rat. These data suggest that Kir inhibition by CO2 /H+ may govern the degree to which astrocytes mediate downstream chemoreceptive signaling events through cell-autonomous mechanisms. These results identify Kir channels as potentially important regional CO2 /H+ sensors early in development, thus expanding our understanding of how astrocyte heterogeneity may uniquely support specific neural circuits and behaviors." @default.
