Adult mouse dorsal root ganglia neurons form aberrant glutamatergic connections in dissociated cultures

Abstract: Cultured sensory neurons can exhibit complex activity patterns following stimulation in terms of increased excitability and interconnected responses of multiple neurons. Although these complex activity patterns suggest a network-like configuration, research so far had little interest in synaptic network formation ability of the sensory neurons. To identify interaction profiles of Dorsal Root Ganglia (DRG) neurons and explore their putative connectivity, we developed an in vitro experimental approach. A double … Show more

“…Dissociated primary dorsal root ganglia (DRG) cultures from laboratory rodents, usually derived from neonatal or embryonic donors, are widely used to study axon degeneration, regeneration, axonal transport impairment and basic mechanisms of sensory physiology and pain (Baccaglini & Hogan, 1983 ; Bilsland et al, 2010 ; Eva et al, 2012 ; Mellone et al, 2013 ; Osterloh et al, 2012 ). Furthermore, DRG cultures are used as models for neurite outgrowth and synapse formation during development and for growth factor‐dependent cell survival (Bayat et al, 2021 ; De Koninck et al, 1993 ; Malin et al, 2007 ; Nowicki et al, 2009 ; Wong et al, 2015 ; Wright & Snider, 1995 ). However, many disorders are unique to larger species, where extended axon length presents a far greater challenge for axonal transport than in rodents, and some have adult onset.…”
