    • Ca2+-Activated Cl2 Channels of the ClCa Family Express in the Cilia of a Subset of Rat Olfactory Sensory Neurons 
      González Silva, Carolina; Vera, Jorge; Bono Merino, María Rosa; González Billault, Christian; Baxter, Brooke; Hansen, Anne; López, Robert; Gibson, Emily A.; Restrepo, Diego; Bacigalupo Vicuña, Juan (PLoS ONE, 2013)
      The Ca2+-activated Cl2 channel is considered a key constituent of odor transduction. Odorant binding to a specific receptor in the cilia of olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) triggers a cAMP cascade that mediates the opening ...
    • Electrical resonance in the h frequency range in olfactory amygdala neurons 
      Vera, Jorge; Pezzoli, Mauricio; Pereira, Ulises; Bacigalupo Vicuña, Juan; Sanhueza Toha, María Magdalena (PLOS One, 2014)
      The cortical amygdala receives direct olfactory inputs and is thought to participate in processing and learning of biologically relevant olfactory cues. As for other brain structures implicated in learning, the principal ...
    • Heterogeneous CaMKII-dependent synaptic compensations in CA1 pyramidal neurons from acute hippocampal slices 
      Vergara, Pablo; Pino, Gabriela; Vera, Jorge; Arancibia, Felipe; Sanhueza Toha, María Magdalena (Frontiers Media, 2022)
      Prolonged changes in neural activity trigger homeostatic synaptic plasticity (HSP) allowing neuronal networks to operate within functional ranges. Cell-wide or input-specific adaptations can be induced by pharmacological ...
