PhotonSABER: new tool shedding light on endocytosis and learning mechanisms in vivo
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2019 In the central nervous system, activity-dependent endocytosis of postsynaptic AMPA-type glutamate receptors (AMPA receptors) is thought to mediate long-term depression (LTD), which is a synaptic plasticity model in various neuronal circuits.

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.

The multiple hit model of infantile and epileptic spasms: The 2025 update
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Infantile and epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy manifesting with epileptic spasms and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. There is an urgent need for the development of more effective and tolerated therapies.

Differential modulation of NMDA and AMPA receptors by cellular prion protein and copper ions
Molecular Brain, 2018 N-Methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) and α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptors (AMPARs) are two major types of ionotropic glutamate receptors involved in synaptic transmission.

Neonatal seizures and GABAergic drugs: Scylla and Charybdis?
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Neonates have a high incidence of seizures that are frequently difficult to control with conventional first‐line anti‐seizure medications, which are gamma‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) agonists. The reasons for this clinical problem are multifold but are likely related to the unique physiology of the immature nervous system. Specifically, the early

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Cenobamate (CNB) is an effective antiseizure medication, though its mechanisms of efficacy remain incompletely understood. We assessed changes in cortical responses to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) following CNB treatment.

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective High‐grade astrocytomas, including glioblastomas, are aggressive brain tumors with poor prognosis and a 5‐year survival below 7%. Seizures affect up to 75% of glioma patients, especially in low‐grade tumors but also in high‐grade cases.

Single Channel Recordings From Synaptosomal AMPA Receptors
, 2005 Synaptic glutamate receptors play a prominent role in the excitatory neurotransmission in the vertebrate central nervous system. Although elucidation of the functional properties of glutamate receptors using electrophysiologic analyses has yielded ...

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objectives ES‐481 is a novel potent and selective antagonist of TARP‐y8‐dependent AMPA receptors. We aimed to assess the potential efficacy, safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of different doses of ES‐481 as an add‐on anti‐seizure medication (ASM) in adults with drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE). Methods This was a Phase 2A double‐blind,

Modulation of AMPA Receptors by Nitric Oxide in Nerve Cells
, 2020 Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous molecule with a large number of functions in living tissue. In the brain, NO participates in numerous intracellular mechanisms, including synaptic plasticity and cell homeostasis.
