(2020). Cross-modal reaction of auditory and visual cortices after long-term bilateral hearing deprivation in the rat. Brain Struct Funct 225, 129–148 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00429-019-01991-w 1863-2653 http://hdl.handle.net/10366/146071 10.1007/s00429-019-01991-w 1863-2661 [EN] Visual cortex (VC) over-activation analysed by evoked responses has been demonstrated in congenital deafness and after long-term acquired hearing loss in humans. However, permanent hearing deprivation has not yet been explored in animal models. Thus, the present study aimed to examine functional and molecular changes underlying the visual and auditory cross-modal reaction. For such purpose, we analysed cortical visual evoked potentials (VEPs) and the gene expression (RT-qPCR) of a set of markers for neuronal activation (c-Fos) and activity-dependent homeostatic compensation (Arc/Arg3.1). To determine the state of excitation and inhibition, we performed RT-qPCR and quantitative immunocytochemistry for excitatory (receptor subunits GluA2/3) and inhibitory (GABAA-α1, GABAB-R2, GAD65/67 and parvalbumin-PV) markers. VC over-activation was demonstrated by a significant increase in VEPs wave N1 and by up-regulation of the activity-dependent early genes c-Fos and Arc/Arg3.1 (thus confirming, by RT-qPCR, our previously published immunocytochemical results). GluA2 gene and protein expression were significantly increased in the auditory cortex (AC), particularly in layers 2/3 pyramidal neurons, but inhibitory markers (GAD65/67 and PV-GABA interneurons) were also significantly upregulated in the AC, indicating a concurrent increase in inhibition. Therefore, after permanent hearing loss in the rat, the VC is not only over-activated but also potentially balanced by homeostatic regulation, while excitatory and inhibitory markers remain imbalanced in the AC, most likely resulting from changes in horizontal intermodal regulation. eng Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacional Visual evoked potentials RT-qPCR Quantitative immunocytochemistry GluA2/3 (RRID: AB_90710) GAD 67 (RRID: AB_2278725) Parvalbumin (AB_10000344) Cross-modal reaction of auditory and visual cortices after long-term bilateral hearing deprivation in the rat info:eu-repo/semantics/article TElDRU5DSUEgREUgRElTVFJJQlVDScOTTiBOTyBFWENMVVNJVkEKClBhcmEgcXVlIGVsIFJlcG9zaXRvcmlvIGRlIGxhIFVuaXZlcnNpZGFkIGRlIFNhbGFtYW5jYSBwdWVkYSByZXByb2R1Y2lyIHkgY29tdW5pY2FyIHDDumJsaWNhbWVudGUgc3UgZG9jdW1lbnRvIGVzIG5lY2VzYXJpbyBsYSBhY2VwdGFjacOzbiBkZSB1bmEgc2VyaWUgZGUgdMOpcm1pbm9zLiBMYXMgY29uZGljaW9uZXMgZGUgbGEgbGljZW5jaWEgZGUgZGlzdHJpYnVjacOzbiBubyBleGNsdXNpdmEgcXVlIGxvcyBhdXRvcmVzIGRlYmVuIGFjZXB0YXIgYWwgaGFjZXIgYXV0b2FyY2hpdm8gZW4gR1JFRE9TIHNvbiBsYXMgc2lndWllbnRlczoKCjEuIEFjZXB0YW5kbyBlc3RhIGxpY2VuY2lhLCB1c3RlZCAoZWwgYXV0b3IvZXMgbyBlbCBwcm9waWV0YXJpby9zIGRlIGxvcyBkZXJlY2hvcyBkZSBhdXRvcikgZ2FyYW50aXphIGEgbGEgVW5pdmVyc2lkYWQgZGUgU2FsYW1hbmNhIGVsIGRlcmVjaG8gbm8gZXhjbHVzaXZvIGRlIGFyY2hpdmFyLCByZXByb2R1Y2lyLCBjb252ZXJ0aXIgKGNvbW8gc2UgZGVmaW5lIG3DoXMgYWJham8pLCBjb211bmljYXIgeS9vIGRpc3RyaWJ1aXIgc3UgZG9jdW1lbnRvIG11bmRpYWxtZW50ZSBlbiBmb3JtYXRvIGVsZWN0csOzbmljby4gCgoyLiBFbCBhdXRvciBhY2VwdGEgcXVlIGxhIFVuaXZlcnNpZGFkIGRlIFNhbGFtYW5jYSBwdWVkYSBjb25zZXJ2YXIgbcOhcyBkZSB1bmEgY29waWEgZGUgZXN0ZSBkb2N1bWVudG8geSwgc2luIGFsdGVyYXIgc3UgY29udGVuaWRvLCBjb252ZXJ0aXJsbyBhIGN1YWxxdWllciBmb3JtYXRvIGRlIGZpY2hlcm8sIG1lZGlvIG8gc29wb3J0ZSwgcGFyYSBwcm9ww7NzaXRvcyBkZSBzZWd1cmlkYWQsIHByZXNlcnZhY2nDs24geSBhY2Nlc28uCgozLiBFbCBkZXBvc2l0YXJpbyBkZWNsYXJhIHF1ZSBlbCBkb2N1bWVudG8gZXMgdW4gdHJhYmFqbyBvcmlnaW5hbCBzdXlvIHkvbyBxdWUgdGllbmUgZWwgZGVyZWNobyBwYXJhIG90b3JnYXIgbG9zIGRlcmVjaG9zIGNvbnRlbmlkb3MgZW4gZXN0YSBsaWNlbmNpYS4gVGFtYmnDqW4gZGVjbGFyYSBxdWUgc3UgZG9jdW1lbnRvIG5vIGluZnJpbmdlLCBlbiB0YW50byBlbiBjdWFudG8gbGUgc2VhIHBvc2libGUgc2FiZXIsIGxvcyBkZXJlY2hvcyBkZSBhdXRvciBkZSBuaW5ndW5hIG90cmEgcGVyc29uYSBvIGVudGlkYWQuCgo0LiBTaSBlbCBkb2N1bWVudG8gY29udGllbmUgbWF0ZXJpYWxlcyBkZSBsb3MgY3VhbGVzIG5vIHRpZW5lIGxvcyBkZXJlY2hvcyBkZSBhdXRvciwgZGVjbGFyYSBxdWUgaGEgb2J0ZW5pZG8gZWwgcGVybWlzbyBzaW4gcmVzdHJpY2Npw7NuIGRlbCBwcm9waWV0YXJpbyBkZSBsb3MgZGVyZWNob3MgZGUgYXV0b3IgcGFyYSBvdG9yZ2FyIGEgbGEgVW5pdmVyc2lkYWQgZGUgU2FsYW1hbmNhIGxvcyBkZXJlY2hvcyByZXF1ZXJpZG9zIHBvciBlc3RhIGxpY2VuY2lhLCB5IHF1ZSBlc2UgbWF0ZXJpYWwgY3V5b3MgZGVyZWNob3Mgc29uIGRlIHRlcmNlcm9zIGVzdMOhIGNsYXJhbWVudGUgaWRlbnRpZmljYWRvIHkgcmVjb25vY2lkbyBlbiBlbCB0ZXh0byBvIGNvbnRlbmlkbyBkZWwgZG9jdW1lbnRvIGVudHJlZ2Fkby4KCjUuIFNpIGVsIGRvY3VtZW50byBzZSBiYXNhIGVuIHVuYSBvYnJhIHF1ZSBoYSBzaWRvIHBhdHJvY2luYWRhIG8gYXBveWFkYSBwb3IgdW5hIGFnZW5jaWEgdSBvcmdhbml6YWNpw7NuIGRpZmVyZW50ZSBkZSBsYSBVbml2ZXJzaWRhZCBkZSBTYWxhbWFuY2EsIHNlIHByZXN1cG9uZSBxdWUgc2UgaGEgY3VtcGxpZG8gY29uIGN1YWxxdWllciBkZXJlY2hvIGRlIHJldmlzacOzbiB1IG90cmFzIG9ibGlnYWNpb25lcyByZXF1ZXJpZGFzIHBvciBlc3RlIGNvbnRyYXRvIG8gYWN1ZXJkby4KCjYuIExhIFVuaXZlcnNpZGFkIGRlIFNhbGFtYW5jYSBpZGVudGlmaWNhcsOhIGNsYXJhbWVudGUgc3UvcyBub21icmUvcyBjb21vIGVsL2xvcyBhdXRvci9lcyBvIHByb3BpZXRhcmlvL3MgZGUgbG9zIGRlcmVjaG9zIGRlbCBkb2N1bWVudG8sIHkgbm8gaGFyw6EgbmluZ3VuYSBhbHRlcmFjacOzbiBkZSBzdSBkb2N1bWVudG8gZGlmZXJlbnRlIGEgbGFzIHBlcm1pdGlkYXMgZW4gZXN0YSBsaWNlbmNpYS4KClNpIGVzdGFzIGNvbmRpY2lvbmVzIG5vIHNvbiBhY2VwdGFkYXMgcG9yIGVsIGF1dG9yLCBubyBlcyBwb3NpYmxlIGRlcG9zaXRhciBuaW5nw7puIGRvY3VtZW50by4KClNpIHVuIGF1dG9yIGVzdMOhIGludGVyZXNhZG8gZW4gbW9kaWZpY2FyIHVuIHRyYWJham8gcXVlIGhheWEgc2lkbyBkZXBvc2l0YWRvIGVuIEdSRURPUywgZGViZSBwb25lcnNlIGVuIGNvbnRhY3RvIGNvbiBsb3MgYWRtaW5pc3RyYWRvcmVzIGRlIEdSRURPUyAocmVwb3NpdG9yaW9AdXNhbC5lcykuCg== URL https://gredos.usal.es/bitstream/10366/146071/1/INCyL_Cross%20modal%20reeaction_Visual%20Cortices.pdf File MD5 6d3027b9f38ea3a483e60f3ab2a4355c 4215516 application/pdf INCyL_Cross modal reeaction_Visual Cortices.pdf URL https://gredos.usal.es/bitstream/10366/146071/6/INCyL_Cross%20modal%20reeaction_Visual%20Cortices.pdf.txt File MD5 555640cf222e22546610c6669edd59d0 72625 text/plain INCyL_Cross modal reeaction_Visual Cortices.pdf.txt
