Pathogenic Mechanism of an Autism-Associated Neuroligin Mutation Involves Altered AMPA-Receptor Trafficking

open access: yesMolecular Psychiatry, 2015
Neuroligins are postsynaptic cell-adhesion molecules that bind to presynaptic neurexins. Although the general synaptic role of neuroligins is undisputed, their specific functions at a synapse remain unclear, even controversial.

A 3D Biofabricated Disease Model Mimicking the Brain Extracellular Matrix Suitable to Characterize Intrinsic Neuronal Network Alterations in the Presence of a Breast Tumor Disseminated to the Brain

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D disease model is developed using customized hyaluronic‐acid‐based hydrogels supplemented with extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins resembling brain ECM properties. Neurons, astrocytes, and tumor cells are used to mimic the native brain surrounding.

Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Activation in Cerebelar Purkinje Cells as Substrate for Adaptive Timing of the Classicaly Conditioned Eye Blink Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
To understand how the cerebellum adaptively times the classically conditioned nictitating membrane response (NMR), a model of the metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) second messenger system in cerebellar Purkinje cells is constructed.

Inhibition of Food Intake by PACAP in the Hypothalamic Ventromedial Nuclei is Mediated by NMDA Receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Central injections of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) into the ventromedial nuclei (VMN) of the hypothalamus produce hypophagia that is dependent upon the PAC1 receptor; however, the signaling downstream of this receptor in the

Nomadic AMPA Receptors and LTP [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 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 ...

Modular Platform for Rapidly Investigating Long‐Distance Propagation of Human Neural Network Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents the first human neural organoid culture model capable of rapidly exhibiting long‐distance neural network propagation, thus delivering a system to experimentally investigate large‐scale communication during normal and diseased states.

Glycine Potentiates AMPA Receptor Function through Metabotropic Activation of GluN2A-containing NMDA Receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2016
NMDA receptors are Ca2+-permeable ion channels. The activation of NMDA receptors requires agonist glutamate and co-agonist glycine. Recent evidence indicates that NMDA receptor also has metabotropic function.

Autoinactivation of the stargazin-AMPA receptor complex: subunit-dependency and independence from physical dissociation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Agonist responses and channel kinetics of native α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) receptors are modulated by transmembrane accessory proteins.

Dysregulation of AMPA Receptor Trafficking and Intracellular Vesicular Sorting in the Prefrontal Cortex of Dopamine Transporter Knock-Out Rats

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
Dopamine (DA) and glutamate interact, influencing neural excitability and promoting synaptic plasticity. However, little is known regarding the molecular mechanisms underlying this crosstalk.
