Introduction
Endocannabinoid-dependent activity promote persistent synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus.
Hypothesis
- DHA may potentiate synaptic plasticity (and cognition) via retrograde CB1 signaling.
- DHA activate the (presynaptic?) NMDA receptor and upregulate the release of glutamate. [1]
- Activation of inhibitory GABAergic synapse (GABA(B) receptor ?) by endocannabinoids (DHA) may promote synaptic function and learning. [3]
- TrkB receptor regulate activity-dependent synaptogenesis and BDNF expression [4]
Model
- The Promoter: omega 3 (fish oil supplement) fatty acids
- DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) conjugate (in the hippocampus?) is docosahexaenoyl ethanolamide (DHEA).
- The Wet Blanket:
- Role: Protect the hippocampus and neurons from glutamate excitoxicity.
- CB1: A synaptogenic receptor? (most likely)
- The Milestone:
- FAAH hydrolysis of DHEA (a endocannabinoid like molecule)
- TrkB (2.7.10.1) potentiate GABAergic synaptic activation:
- BDNF expression is Ca2+ and CREB dependent
- DSI (CB1-mediated inhibition of GABAergic transmission/Depolarization-induced Suppression of Inhibition) -> EPSC (excitatory post-synaptic currents) -> NMDA-dependent(?) LTP at excitatory, and glutamatergic synapses
