Clathrin-Independent Trafficking of AMPA Receptors [PDF]
Membrane trafficking of AMPA receptors (AMPARs) is critical for neuronal function and plasticity. Although rapid forms of AMPAR internalization during long-term depression (LTD) require clathrin and dynamin, the mechanisms governing constitutive AMPAR turnover and internalization of AMPARs during slow homeostatic forms of synaptic plasticity remain ...

Characterization of Phosphorylation Sites on the Glutamate Receptor 4 Subunit of the AMPA Receptors [PDF]
Recent studies have suggested that protein phosphorylation of glutamate receptors may play an important role in synaptic transmission. Specifically, the phosphorylation of AMPA receptors has been implicated in cellular models of synaptic plasticity.

Mechanisms of AMPA Receptor Endosomal Sorting [PDF]
The regulation of synaptic AMPA receptors (AMPARs) is critical for excitatory synaptic transmission, synaptic plasticity and the consequent formation of neural circuits during brain development and their modification during learning and memory processes.

Positive allosteric modulators of the a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor [PDF]
L-glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) and plays a fundamental role in the control of motor function, cognition and mood.

Ketamine alters presynaptic channels in the hippocampus to mediate fast-acting antidepressant action. Keys to the rapid antidepressant action of ketamine Ketamine is a clinically used “dissociative analgesic” for pain management and a rapidly acting ...

Superactivation of AMPA receptors by auxiliary proteins [PDF]
AbstractGlutamate receptors form complexes in the brain with auxiliary proteins, which control their activity during fast synaptic transmission through a seemingly bewildering array of effects. Here we devise a way to isolate the activation of complexes using polyamines, which enables us to show that transmembrane AMPA receptor regulatory proteins ...

Degradation of Glyphosate to Benign N‐Formyl Glycine Using MOF‐808 Nanocrystals
A Zr‐based metal–organic framework (MOF‐808) with different crystal sizes and designed defect sites was employed as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the complete degradation of glyphosate at room temperature. The degradation mechanism produces N‐formyl glycine and hydroxymethyl‐phosphonate. Abstract Glyphosate (N‐phosphonomethyl glycine, GPh) is

Chemical synapses are tiny and overcrowded environments enriched with thousands of protein species. Many efforts have been devoted to developing sensors and actuators able to evaluate and control synaptic communication. Most of these recent tools are based on the engineering of one or more specific synaptic proteins used to target active moieties to ...

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 ...

How feedback inhibition shapes spike-timing-dependent plasticity and its implications for recent Schizophrenia models [PDF]
It has been shown that plasticity is not a fixed property but, in fact, changes depending on the location of the synapse on the neuron and/or changes of biophysical parameters.
