Intracellular machinery for the transport of AMPA receptors [PDF]

British Journal of Pharmacology, 2008
AMPA‐type glutamate receptors are one of the most dynamic components of excitatory synapses. Their regulated addition and removal from synapses leads to long‐lasting forms of synaptic plasticity, known as long‐term potentiation (LTP) and long‐term depression (LTD).

Perampanel as a second‐line therapy to midazolam reduces soman‐induced status epilepticus and neurodegeneration in rats

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A benzodiazepine (diazepam or midazolam) is one of the current standards of care therapies to effectively terminate organophosphorus nerve agent‐induced status epilepticus when administered shortly after onset. Preclinical studies showed that benzodiazepines were less effective in stopping status epilepticus when treatment was ...

Single-Particle Tracking of AMPA Receptor-Containing Vesicles

Bio-Protocol
AMPA-type receptors are transported large distances to support synaptic plasticity at distal dendritic locations. Studying the motion of AMPA receptor+ vesicles can improve our understanding of the mechanisms that underlie learning and memory ...

Shisa6 traps AMPA receptors at postsynaptic sites and prevents their desensitization during synaptic activity

Nature Communications, 2016
Trafficking and biophysical properties of AMPA receptors (AMPARs) in the brain depend on interactions with associated proteins. We identify Shisa6, a single transmembrane protein, as a stable and directly interacting bona fide AMPAR auxiliary subunit ...

Regulation of AMPA receptors by phosphorylation.

Neurochemical research, 2000
The AMPA receptors for glutamate are oligomeric structures that mediate fast excitatory responses in the central nervous system. Phosphorylation of AMPA receptors is an important mechanism for short-term modulation of their function, and is thought to play an important role in synaptic plasticity in different brain regions.

Cytotoxicity of 19 Pesticides in Rainbow Trout Gill, Liver, and Intestinal Cell Lines

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract The rainbow trout gill cell line (RTgill‐W1), via test guideline 249 of the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development, has been established as a promising New Approach Methodology, although to advance confidence in the method more case studies are needed that: 1) expand our understanding of applicability domains (chemicals with ...

Model development for international nurse educator partnerships: relationship-building process and strategies

MedUNAB, 2012
Cultural diversity and its impact on patient care contribute to persistent health care disparities. In attempts to enhance nursing student cultural awareness and sensitivity, nurse educators seek international opportunities, often times in ...

Amyloid-β-Induced Dysregulation of AMPA Receptor Trafficking

Journal of Neural Transplantation and Plasticity, 2016
Evidence from neuropathological, genetic, animal model, and biochemical studies has indicated that the accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) is associated with, and probably induces, profound neuronal changes in brain regions critical for memory and ...

Neuroprotective Properties of Wild Mango (Mangifera caloneura Kurz) Leaves on Alleviating Urban Air Pollutant Toxicity: Insights From Transcriptome Analysis of a Human Neuronal Cell Model

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Exposure to urban air pollution, particularly particulate matter (PM), has been correlated with an increased risk of neurodegenerative diseases, notably Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. However, the mechanisms underlying the association between urban air pollution and neurodegenerative diseases remain unclear.

P2X7 receptors exert a permissive effect on the activation of presynaptic AMPA receptors in rat trigeminal caudal nucleus glutamatergic nerve terminals

The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2020
Background Purine receptors play roles in peripheral and central sensitization and are associated with migraine headache. We investigated the possibility that ATP plays a permissive role in the activation of AMPA receptors thus inducing Glu release from ...
