AMPA receptors and their minions: auxiliary proteins in AMPA receptor trafficking [PDF]
Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2019 To correctly transfer information, neuronal networks need to continuously adjust their synaptic strength to extrinsic stimuli. This ability, termed synaptic plasticity, is at the heart of their function and is, thus, tightly regulated.

Stargazin Modulation of AMPA Receptors [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2016 Fast excitatory synaptic signaling in the mammalian brain is mediated by AMPA-type ionotropic glutamate receptors. In neurons, AMPA receptors co-assemble with auxiliary proteins, such as stargazin, which can markedly alter receptor trafficking and gating.

AMPA Receptors Bring On the Pain [PDF]
Neuron, 2004 The role of Ca(2+)-permeable AMPA receptors in pain processing has not been extensively studied. In this issue of Neuron, Hartmann et al. show that altering the levels of these receptors has consequences for inflammatory pain hypersensitivity but not acute pain processing.

SynDIG1 promotes excitatory synaptogenesis independent of AMPA receptor trafficking and biophysical regulation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 AMPA receptors-mediators of fast, excitatory transmission and synaptic plasticity in the brain-achieve great functional diversity through interaction with different auxiliary subunits, which alter both the trafficking and biophysical properties of these ...

Nomadic AMPA Receptors and LTP [PDF]
Neuron, 1999 What are the broader implications of these two reports? One feature of LTP is its reversibility: once established, application of low-frequency stimulus train can decrease the synaptic strength. When applied to naive synapyses (i.e., in fresh brain slices), such low frequency stimulation induces a long-lasting depression of synaptic responses known as ...

Perampanel inhibition of AMPA receptor currents in cultured hippocampal neurons. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Perampanel is an aryl substituted 2-pyridone AMPA receptor antagonist that was recently approved as a treatment for epilepsy. The drug potently inhibits AMPA receptor responses but the mode of block has not been characterized.

Architecture and subunit arrangement of native AMPA receptors elucidated by cryo-EM
Science, 2019 Diversity in ion channel complexes AMPA receptors are glutamate activated ion channels that mediate fast synaptic transmission in the nervous system and play a key role in learning and memory.

Glyphosate, but not its metabolite AMPA, alters the honeybee gut microbiota
PLoS ONE, 2019 The honeybee (Apis mellifera) has to cope with multiple environmental stressors, especially pesticides. Among those, the herbicide glyphosate and its main metabolite, the aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA), are among the most abundant and ubiquitous ...

Gating Modes in AMPA Receptors [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2010 AMPA receptors are ligand-gated ion channels that show multiple conductance levels, indicating that gating of individual AMPA subunits is to some extent independent of the other subunits. To study AMPAR subunit interactions during activation gating, we recorded from single channels in the absence of channel block and desensitization and at negative and
