Structural Dynamics and Allosteric Signaling in Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) are ligand-gated ion channels that mediate excitatory neurotransmission events in the central nervous system. All distinct classes of iGluRs (AMPA, NMDA, Kainate) are composed of an N-terminal domain (NTD) and a ...

Slow excitatory synaptic currents generated by AMPA receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Decades of literature indicate that the AMPA‐type glutamate receptor is among the fastest acting of all neurotransmitter receptors. These receptors are located at excitatory synapses, and conventional wisdom says that they activate in hundreds of ...

Single-Particle Tracking of AMPA Receptor-Containing Vesicles

open access: yesBio-Protocol
AMPA-type receptors are transported large distances to support synaptic plasticity at distal dendritic locations. Studying the motion of AMPA receptor+ vesicles can improve our understanding of the mechanisms that underlie learning and memory ...

Sustained pharmacodynamic effects of S‐ketamine on cortical excitability and resting‐state brain activity: A randomized, placebo‐controlled trial

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This study aimed to investigate a set of pharmacodynamic biomarkers reflecting acute, delayed and sustained central nervous system effects of S‐ketamine, used as a tool compound for rapid‐acting antidepressant activity, with the goal of informing biomarker strategies for delayed antidepressant effects.

Clathrin-Independent Trafficking of AMPA Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2015
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 ...

AMPA receptor biogenesis and trafficking

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Neurobiology, 2007
AMPA-type glutamate receptors mediate the majority of fast excitatory transmission in the central nervous system. The trafficking of AMPA receptors to and from synapses alters synaptic strength and has been recognized as a central mechanism underlying various forms of synaptic plasticity.

Recent Findings on AMPA Receptor Recycling [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
α-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptors (AMPA-Rs) are tetrameric protein complexes that mediate most of the fast-excitatory transmission in response to the neurotransmitter glutamate in neurons. The abundance of AMPA-Rs at the surface of excitatory synapses establishes the strength of the response to glutamate. It is thus evident

In Vivo Cytoskeletal AMPA Receptor Transport Imaging in C. elegans

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Long‐distance intracellular transport of ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) is essential for proper excitatory synaptic function underlying learning and memory. Many neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative conditions have abnormal iGluR transport and trafficking, leading to an intense interest in the mechanisms and factors regulating these

Structure and function of AMPA receptors [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 2004
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.

Cenobamate use in super‐refractory status epilepticus: A report of three cases

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Super‐refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) is a neurological emergency with high morbidity and mortality. Cenobamate, a novel antiseizure medication, may be helpful in managing SRSE, but evidence is limited. Methods This retrospective case series reports the use of cenobamate as add‐on therapy in the management of three cases of ...
