Abstrakt: The neocortex is highly susceptible to metabolic dysfunction. When exposed to global ischemia or anoxia, it suffers a slowly propagating wave of collective neuronal depolarization that ultimately impairs its structure and function. While the molecular signature of anoxic depolarization (AD) is well documented, little is known about the brain states that precede and follow AD onset. Here, by means of multisite extracellular local field potentials and intracellular recordings from identified pyramidal cells, we investigated the laminar expression of cortical activities induced by transient anoxia in rat primary somatosensory cortex. Soon after the interruption of brain oxygenation, we observed a well-organized sequence of stereotyped activity patterns across all cortical layers. This sequence included an initial period of beta-gamma activity, rapidly replaced by delta-theta oscillations followed by a decline in all spontaneous activites, marking the entry into a sustained period of electrical silence. Intracellular recordings revealed that cortical pyramidal neurons were depolarized and highly active during high-frequency activity, became inactive and devoid of synaptic potentials during the isoelectric state, and showed subthreshold composite synaptic depolarizations during the low-frequency period. Contrasting with the strong temporal coherence of pre-AD activities along the vertical axis of the cortical column, the onset of AD was not uniform across layers. AD initially occurred in layer 5 or 6 and then propagated bidirectionally in the upward and downward direction. Conversely, the post-anoxic waves that indicated the repolarization of cortical neurons upon brain reoxygenation did not exhibit a specific spatio-temporal profile. Pyramidal neurons from AD initiation site had a more depolarized resting potential and higher spontaneous firing rate compared to superficial cortical cells. We also found that the propagation pattern of AD was reliably reproduced by focal injection of an inhibitor of sodium‑potassium ATPases, suggesting that cortical AD dynamics could reflect layer-dependent variations in cellular metabolic regulations.
