Vesicular glutamatergic transmission in noise-induced loss and repair of cochlear ribbon synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Noise-induced excitotoxicity is thought to depend on glutamate. However, the excitotoxic mechanisms are unknown, and the necessity of glutamate for synapse loss or regeneration is unclear. Despite absence of glutamatergic transmission from cochlear inner

Alpha‐Ketoglutarate Ameliorates Synaptic Plasticity Deficits in APP/PS1 Mice Model of Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
This schematic illustration summarizes the effects of calcium alpha‐ketoglutarate (CaAKG) on synaptic plasticity in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (APP/PS1). CaAKG enhances autophagy and restores LTP in APP/PS1 mice via NMDAR‐independent, LTCC, and CPAMPAR‐dependent pathways.

Pituitary Adenylate-Cyclase Activating Polypeptide Regulates Hunger- and Palatability-Induced Binge Eating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
While pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP) signaling in the hypothalamic ventromedial nuclei (VMN) has been shown to regulate feeding, a challenge in unmasking a role for this peptide in obesity is that excess feeding can involve ...

The physiological and pathological effects of sphingolipid metabolism and signaling in the central nervous system

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Sphingolipids are vital components of cell membranes. Metabolic disruptions of sphingolipids, including ceramide and sphingosine‐1‐phosphate, are linked to neurological disorders. This article summarizes the classification, structure, and metabolic processes of sphingolipids, and the physiological and pathological effects of sphingolipid metabolism and

A Mathematical Model of Tripartite Synapse: Astrocyte Induced Synaptic Plasticity

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper we present a biologically detailed mathematical model of tripartite synapses, where astrocytes modulate short-term synaptic plasticity. The model consists of a pre-synaptic bouton, a post-synaptic dendritic spine-head, a synaptic cleft and ...

Psilocybin as a novel treatment for chronic pain

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Psychedelic drugs are under active consideration for clinical use and have generated significant interest for their potential as anti‐nociceptive treatments for chronic pain, and for addressing conditions like depression, frequently co‐morbid with pain.

Postsynaptic protein organization revealed by electron microscopy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Neuronal synapses are key devices for transmitting and processing information in the nervous system. Synaptic plasticity, generally regarded as the cellular basis of learning and memory, involves changes of subcellular structures that take place at the ...
