Seizure control by decanoic acid through direct AMPA receptor inhibition

open access: yesBrain : a journal of neurology, 2015
See Rogawski (doi:10.1093/awv369) for a scientific commentary on this article.  The MCT ketogenic diet, an established treatment for drug-resistant epilepsy, leads to an elevation of plasma decanoic acid and ketones. Chang et al. show that decanoic acid,

Modulating Excitatory Synaptic Neurotransmission: Potential Treatment for Neurological Disease?

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 1998
Excitatory neurotransmission at many CNS synapses depends upon AMPA-type glutamate receptors. Derangements in AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission may be a contributing factor in neurological and neurodegenerative diseases and could be a target ...

Influence of glyphosate and its metabolite aminomethylphosphonic acid on aquatic plants in different ecological niches

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Glyphosate and its metabolite aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) draw great concern due to their potential threat to aquatic ecosystems. The individual and combined effects of glyphosate and AMPA on aquatic plants in different ecological niches need to be

Potential wells for AMPA receptors organized in ring nanodomains [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
By combining high-density super-resolution imaging with a novel stochastic analysis, we report here a peculiar nano-structure organization revealed by the density function of individual AMPA receptors moving on the surface of cultured hippocampal dendrites.

Pharmacological characterisation of S 47445, a novel positive allosteric modulator of AMPA receptors.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
S 47445 is a novel positive allosteric modulator of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionic acid (AMPA) receptors (AMPA-PAM). S 47445 enhanced glutamate's action at AMPA receptors on human and rat receptors and was inactive at NMDA and ...

A neuroeconomic theory of bidirectional synaptic plasticity and addiction [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
Neuronal mechanisms underlying addiction have been attracting attention in neurobiology, economics, neuropsychiatry, and neuroeconomics. This paper proposes a possible link between economic theory of addiction (Becker and Murphy, 1988) and neurobiological theory of bidirectional synaptic plasticity (Bienenstock, Cooper, Munro, 1982) based on recent ...

The AMPA receptor antagonist perampanel robustly rescues amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) pathology in sporadic ALS model mice

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
Both TDP-43 pathology and failure of RNA editing of AMPA receptor subunit GluA2, are etiology-linked molecular abnormalities that concomitantly occur in the motor neurons of the majority of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Copine-6 is a Ca2+ sensor for activity-induced AMPA receptor exocytosis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: The recruitment of synaptic α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) receptors underlies the strengthening of neuronal connectivity during learning and memory. This process is triggered by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-

Toxicity of AMPA to the earthworm Eisenia andrei Bouché, 1972 in tropical artificial soil

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
Aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) - one of glyphosate’s main metabolites - has been classified as persistent in soils, raising concern regarding the widespread use of glyphosate in agriculture and forestry. Glyphosate may have negative or neutral effects
