Differential localization of glutamate receptor subunits at the drosophila neuromuscular junction [PDF]
, 2004 The subunit composition of postsynaptic neurotransmitter receptors is a key determinant of synaptic physiology. Two glutamate receptor subunits, Drosophila glutamate receptor IIA (DGluRIIA) and DGluRIIB, are expressed at the Drosophila neuromuscular ...

Stargazin Dephosphorylation Mediates Homeostatic Synaptic Downscaling of Excitatory Synapses
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018 Synaptic scaling is a form of homeostatic plasticity that is critical for maintaining neuronal activity within a dynamic range, and which alters synaptic strength through changes in postsynaptic AMPA-type glutamate receptors.

Control of AMPA receptor activity by the extracellular loops of auxiliary proteins
eLife, 2017 At synapses throughout the mammalian brain, AMPA receptors form complexes with auxiliary proteins, including TARPs. However, how TARPs modulate AMPA receptor gating remains poorly understood. We built structural models of TARP-AMPA receptor complexes for

Recurrent Anti-AMPA Receptor Limbic Encephalitis: A Case Report and Literature Review
Frontiers in Neurology, 2021 Alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor encephalitis is a relatively rare anti-neuronal surface antigen autoimmune encephalitis (LE).

Activity-dependent adenosine release may be linked to activation of Na+-K+ ATPase : an in vitro rat study [PDF]
, 2014 In the brain, extracellular adenosine increases as a result of neuronal activity. The mechanisms by which this occurs are only incompletely understood. Here we investigate the hypothesis that the Na+ influxes associated with neuronal signalling activate ...

Reduced Effect of Anticonvulsants on AMPA Receptor Palmitoylation-Deficient Mice
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 AMPA receptors are responsible for fast excitatory synaptic transmission in the mammalian brain. Post-translational protein S-palmitoylation of AMPA receptor subunits GluA1-4 reversibly regulates synaptic AMPA receptor expression, resulting in long ...

Membrane lipid rafts are required for AMPA receptor tyrosine phosphorylation
Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2022 Membrane lipid rafts are sphingolipids and cholesterol-enriched membrane microdomains, which form a center for the interaction or assembly of palmitoylated signaling molecules, including Src family non-receptor type protein tyrosine kinases.

Enhanced odor discrimination and impaired olfactory memory by spatially controlled switch of AMPA receptors [PDF]
, 2005 Genetic perturbations of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate receptors (AMPARs) are widely used to dissect molecular mechanisms of sensory coding, learning, and memory.
