New AMPA antagonists in epilepsy
Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs, 2012Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder; however, its therapy is not satisfactory because a large number of patients suffer from refractory seizures and/or has a low quality of life due to antiepileptic drug (AED) side effects. Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, AMPA receptors (AMPARs) represent a validated target for ...

The Cerebellum, 2004
AMPA-type glutamate receptors may transduce both neurotoxic and neurotrophic signals, basically depending on receptor subunit composition and on the extent of receptor activation. While a great deal of data are available on the mechanisms underlying the neurotoxic effects induced by AMPA receptor stimulation, much less is known about the molecular ...

Neurology, 2016
In this and forthcoming reviews, a representative clinical case will serve as an introduction to the topic to be discussed. This will provide the basis to address some recent insights from basic neuroscience research on the normal function of the primary target of the disease process involved in the case presented, as well as putative pathophysiologic ...

Functional modulation of AMPA receptors by transmembrane AMPA receptor regulatory proteins
Neuroscience, 2009The AMPA receptors are ligand-gated ion channels belonging to the family of ionotropic glutamate receptors. They play an essential role in fast excitatory synaptic transmission in the CNS of vertebrates. Their activity-dependent directed transport and fast turnover at the plasma membrane contribute to synaptic plasticity and require numerous ...

Inhibitors of AMPA and Kainate Receptors
Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2001The glutamate receptor system is implicated in the development and maintenance of epileptic seizures, and animal studies have disclosed potent anticonvulsant activity of a number of inhibitors of AMPA and/or kainate (KA) receptor activity. These results make such inhibitors potential future antiepileptic drugs.

AMPA receptor biogenesis and trafficking
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2007AMPA-type glutamate receptors mediate the majority of fast excitatory transmission in the central nervous system. The trafficking of AMPA receptors to and from synapses alters synaptic strength and has been recognized as a central mechanism underlying various forms of synaptic plasticity.

AMPA Receptor Cycling in the Synapse
Science's STKE, 2004Ionotropic glutamate receptors (GluRs) are involved in mediating signaling in response to synaptic activity. In addition to converting the chemical signal released from the presynaptic terminal to an electrical response in the postsynaptic neuron, these receptors are critically involved in activity-dependent, long-term changes in synaptic strength and,

AMPA Receptor Trafficking and GluR1
Science, 2005In their Research Article “Postsynaptic receptor trafficking underlying a form of associative learning” (1 Apr., p. 83), S. Rumpel et al. draw the important conclusions that “encoding of memories in the lateral amygdala is mediated by AMPA receptor trafficking” and that “synaptic incorporation of AMPARs is necessary for learning.” The key experiment ...

2,3-Benzodiazepine AMPA Antagonists
Restorative Neurology and Neuroscience, 1998The 2,3-benzodiazepine GYKI 52466 (1-(4-aminophenyl)-4 methyl-7,8-methylenedioxy-5H-2,3-benzodiazepine) and its analogues represent a family of selective AMPA antagonists. They modulate AMPA channel functions through an allosteric site on the receptor, which is probably different from the ones involved in the actions of cyclothiazide and aniracetam ...
