AB - Extracellular potassium [K+]o elevation during synaptic activity retrogradely modifies presynaptic release and astrocytic uptake of glutamate. Hence, local K+ clearance and replenishment mechanisms are crucial regulators of glutamatergic transmission and plasticity. Based on recordings of astrocytic inward rectifier potassium current IKir and K+-sensitive electrodes as sensors of [K+]o as well as on in silico modeling, we demonstrate that the neuronal K+-Cl- co-transporter KCC2 clears local perisynaptic [K+]o during synaptic excitation by operating in an activity-dependent reversed mode. In reverse mode, KCC2 replenishes K+ in dendritic spines and complements clearance of [K+]o, therewith attenuating presynaptic glutamate release and shortening LTP. We thus demonstrate a physiological role of KCC2 in neuron-glial interactions and regulation of synaptic signaling and plasticity through the uptake of postsynaptically released K+.
