The role of postsynaptic AMPA receptors in stabilizing presynaptic inputs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The establishment of functional neuronal circuits relies on the formation of excess synapses, followed by the elimination of inappropriate connections.

Psilocybin as a novel treatment for chronic pain

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 14, Page 3992-4005, July 2026.
Abstract Psychedelic drugs are under active consideration for clinical use and have generated significant interest for their potential as anti‐nociceptive treatments for chronic pain, and for addressing conditions like depression, frequently co‐morbid with pain.

AMPA-receptor GluR1 subunits are involved in the control over behavior by cocaine-paired cues

open access: yes, 2007
The learning processes underlying the formation of drug-cue associations involve changes in synaptic transmission mediated by AMPA receptors. Here, we examine the consequences of targeted deletion of the gene encoding GluR1 subunits of AMPA receptors ...

Psychedelics, entactogens and psychoplastogens for depression and related disorders

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 14, Page 3897-3919, July 2026.
Currently, the most actively investigated rapidly acting antidepressants, anxiolytics and/or anti PTSD agents, include psychedelics e.g. psilocybin, LSD, N,N‐dimethyltryptamine, ayahuasca; non‐hallucinogenic entactogens, e.g. MDMA; psychoplastogens which rapidly promote neuroplasticity, e.g.

Psychedelics as pharmacotherapeutics for substance use disorders: A scoping review on clinical trials and perspectives on underlying neurobiology

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 14, Page 4022-4047, July 2026.
Theorized mechanism of dopamine homeostasis restoration in the nucleus accumbens core induced by a psychedelic intervention. Abstract Psychedelics have garnered great attention in recent years as treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression because of their ability to alter consciousness and afflicted cognitive ...

Learning Dynamics in Biophysical Spiking Network Models Are Shaped by KCC2/NKCC1 Cotransporter Stoichiometry

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 64, Issue 1, July 2026.
Neuronal chloride homeostasis, governed by KCC2 and NKCC1 cotransporters, constrains convergence to learning in biophysical spiking neural networks. Systematic exploration of transporter activity shows that successful learning emerges only within a restricted parameter regime, whose boundaries and convergence properties critically depend on NKCC1 ...

Involvement of kainate glutamate receptors in the modulation of neuronal transmission in brain areas involved in migraine pathophysiology

open access: yes, 2009
Migraine pathophysiology is thought to involve activation of the trigeminal fibres which innervate dural structures. The nociceptive inflow from the meninges is relayed to the trigeminocervical complex (TCC), before ascending to higher brain areas ...

Impact of Voluntary Alcohol Consumption on Corticostriatal Plasticity in Rats

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 64, Issue 1, July 2026.
After 8 weeks voluntary alcohol consumption, AMPA/NMDA ratios were reduced in medium spiny neurons in the dorsolateral striatum, upon optogenetic stimulation of sensorimotor cortical inputs. Moreover, coefficient of variance was reduced and paired‐pulse facilitation was enhanced, selectively in high alcohol drinking rats.

Trafficking and ethanol-induced inhibition of AMPA receptors

open access: yes, 2009
AMPA receptors are an important class of ionotropic glutamate receptors which participate in fast excitatory synaptic transmission in most brain areas. They have a pivotal role in adjustment of cell membrane excitability as their cell membrane expression
