Super‐Resolution Microscopy in Tissue Engineering
Super‐resolution microscopy (SRM) has advanced tissue engineering by providing nanoscale insights into cellular interactions. It reveals detailed cell membrane structures, tracks vesicle and virus entry, and visualizes the cytoskeleton. SRM also improves understanding of cell migration, facilitating tissue regeneration, vascularization, immune ...

p97 regulates GluA1 homomeric AMPA receptor formation and plasma membrane expression
AMPA receptors mediate excitatory synaptic transmission and are involved in synaptic plasticity. The authors show that p97 interacts with the GluA1 subunit of AMPA receptors, promotes the formation of GluA1 homomeric AMPA receptors, and regulates AMPA ...

Seizure control by decanoic acid through direct AMPA receptor inhibition
See Rogawski (doi:10.1093/awv369) for a scientific commentary on this article. The MCT ketogenic diet, an established treatment for drug-resistant epilepsy, leads to an elevation of plasma decanoic acid and ketones. Chang et al. show that decanoic acid,

What causes aberrant salience in schizophrenia? A role for impaired short-term habituation and the GRIA1 (GluA1) AMPA receptor subunit. [PDF]
The GRIA1 locus, encoding the GluA1 (also known as GluRA or GluR1) AMPA glutamate receptor subunit, shows genome-wide association to schizophrenia. As well as extending the evidence that glutamatergic abnormalities have a key role in the disorder, this ...

Parasubthalamic Glutamatergic Neurons Coordinate Cardiovascular Homeostasis and Locomotion in Mice
PSTNVglut2 neurons function as a new central baroreflex hub via projections to the NTS, modulating parasympathetic cardiac output to maintain cardiovascular homeostasis while synchronously regulating locomotion. Blood pressure fluctuations negatively correlate with locomotor performance.

Structure and function of AMPA receptors [PDF]
The application of X‐ray diffraction has allowed the structure of the ligand‐binding core of AMPA receptors to be determined. Here I review the insights that this has given into the molecular mechanisms of activation and desensitization of these receptors.

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.

Acid-Sensing Ion Channels Activated by Evoked Released Protons Modulate Synaptic Transmission at the Mouse Calyx of Held Synapse [PDF]
Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) regulate synaptic activities and play important roles in neurodegenerative diseases. We found that these channels can be activated in neurons of the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB) of the auditory system in ...

Lamina-specific AMPA receptor dynamics following visual deprivation in vivo. [PDF]
Regulation of AMPA receptor (AMPAR) expression is central to synaptic plasticity and brain function, but how these changes occur in vivo remains elusive.

Epigenetic Regulation of DAPK1 and Netrin‐1 Drives Diabetic Encephalopathy
This study identifies a microRNA (miR)‐216a‐5p/death‐associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK1)/hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 homeobox A (HNF1A)/Netrin‐1 signaling axis in diabetic encephalopathy (DE). In leptin receptor‐deficient (db/db) and streptozotocin (STZ)‐induced diabetic mice, reduced miR‐216a‐5p increases DAPK1 expression, disrupting HNF1A binding to ...
