{"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Hyperpolarization-activated cyclic-nucleotide-gated (HCN) channels control electrical rhythmicity and excitability in the heart and brain, but the function of HCN channels at the subcellular level in axons remains poorly understood. Here, we show that the action potential conduction velocity in both myelinated and unmyelinated central axons can be bidirectionally modulated by a HCN channel blocker, cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), and neuromodulators. Recordings from mouse cerebellar mossy fiber boutons show that HCN channels ensure reliable high-frequency firing and are strongly modulated by cAMP (EC50 40 mM; estimated endogenous cAMP concentration 13 mM). In addition, immunogold-electron microscopy revealed HCN2 as the dominating subunit in cerebellar mossy fibers. Computational modeling indicated that HCN2 channels control conduction velocity primarily by altering the resting membrane potential\r\nand are associated with significant metabolic costs. These results suggest that the cAMP-HCN pathway provides neuromodulators with an opportunity to finely tune energy consumption and temporal delays across axons in the brain."}],"department":[{"_id":"RySh"}],"date_published":"2019-09-09T00:00:00Z","publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2023-08-30T06:17:06Z","tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"},"article_processing_charge":"No","month":"09","day":"09","type":"journal_article","file":[{"file_size":4008137,"date_created":"2019-09-16T13:14:33Z","file_id":"6880","date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:47:42Z","creator":"dernst","access_level":"open_access","file_name":"2019_eLife_Byczkowicz.pdf","content_type":"application/pdf","checksum":"c350b7861ef0fb537cae8a3232aec016","relation":"main_file"}],"status":"public","quality_controlled":"1","title":"HCN channel-mediated neuromodulation can control action potential velocity and fidelity in central axons","scopus_import":"1","publisher":"eLife Sciences Publications","user_id":"4359f0d1-fa6c-11eb-b949-802e58b17ae8","date_created":"2019-09-15T22:00:43Z","oa_version":"Published Version","oa":1,"article_number":"e42766","_id":"6868","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_type":"original","citation":{"mla":"Byczkowicz, Niklas, et al. “HCN Channel-Mediated Neuromodulation Can Control Action Potential Velocity and Fidelity in Central Axons.” ELife, vol. 8, e42766, eLife Sciences Publications, 2019, doi:10.7554/eLife.42766.","ieee":"N.
