Abstract

ABSTRACTFollowing an ischemic insult to the brain, there is an acute loss of GABAergic inhibitory synapses and an increase in excitatory/ inhibitory (E/I) imbalance that drives neuronal hyperexcitability. It is unknown whether this E/I imbalance persists at delayed timepoints and contributes to chronic impairments in memory and long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus following ischemic brain injury. Here, we reveal a shift to reduced E/I ratio in hippocampal CA1 neurons via a persistent increase in postsynaptic GABAAreceptor mediated inhibitory responses and clustering days after a global ischemic insult. This enhancement of postsynaptic inhibitory function and clustering required activation of the Ca2+-permeable TRPM2 ion channel and the Ca2+-dependent kinase, CaMKII. Thus, we propose a mechanism in which acute downregulation of GABAAreceptors is followed by a strengthening of inhibitory synapses at delayed periods after ischemia. Targeting this mechanism has therapeutic potential to recover hippocampal plasticity and cognitive function post-ischemia.GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
