Research Abstract |
Cerebellar Bergmann glial cells have Ca-permeable AMPA receptors and can be involved in formation and development of neuronal circuit via neuron-glia interactions mediated by Ca. To elucidate the functional role of Ca-permeable AMPA receptors in cerebellar glial cells, I attempted to develop a method in which glial Ca-permeable AMPA receptors are turned Ca-impermeable during cerebellar development. Using lentiviral vectors with truncated GFAP promoters, I succeeded in expressing a GluR2 gene in glial cells effectively, with no change in tropism.
