Perampanel inhibition of AMPA receptor currents in cultured hippocampal neurons. [PDF]
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.

Single-Particle Tracking of AMPA Receptor-Containing Vesicles [PDF]
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 ...

SynDIG1 promotes excitatory synaptogenesis independent of AMPA receptor trafficking and biophysical regulation. [PDF]
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 ...

Auxiliary Subunits Regulate the Dendritic Turnover of AMPA Receptors in Mouse Hippocampal Neurons
Different families of auxiliary subunits regulate the function and trafficking of native α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors in the central nervous system. While a facilitatory role of auxiliary subunits in ER export and

AMPA receptor structure and auxiliary subunits
Fast excitatory synaptic transmission in the mammalian brain is largely mediated by AMPA‐type ionotropic glutamate receptors (AMPARs), which are activated by the neurotransmitter glutamate.

The early stage formation of PI3K-AMPAR GluR2 subunit complex facilitates the long term neuroprotection induced by propofol post-conditioning in rats. [PDF]
Previously, we have shown that the phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) mediated acute (24 h) post-conditioning neuroprotection induced by propofol.

Modulating Excitatory Synaptic Neurotransmission: Potential Treatment for Neurological Disease?
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 ...

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