Effect of excitatory and inhibitory agents and a glial inhibitor on optically-recorded primary-afferent excitation

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2008
The effects of GABA, excitatory amino-acid receptors antagonists and a glial metabolism inhibitor on primary-afferent excitation in the spinal dorsal horn were studied by imaging the presynaptic excitation of high-threshold afferents in cord slices from ...

Abolishing spontaneous epileptiform activity in human brain tissue through AMPA receptor inhibition

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2020
Objective The amino‐3‐hydroxy‐5‐methyl‐4‐isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPAR) is increasingly recognized as a therapeutic target in drug‐refractory pediatric epilepsy.

G-protein coupled estrogen receptor (GPER1) activation promotes synaptic insertion of AMPA receptors and induction of chemical LTP at hippocampal temporoammonic-CA1 synapses

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2023
It is well documented that 17β estradiol (E2) regulates excitatory synaptic transmission at hippocampal Shaffer-collateral (SC)-CA1 synapses, via activation of the classical estrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ).

Salsolinol facilitates glutamatergic transmission to dopamine neurons in the posterior ventral tegmental area of rats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Although in vivo evidence indicates that salsolinol, the condensation product of acetaldehyde and dopamine, has properties that may contribute to alcohol abuse, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated.

Inhibitory postsynaptic actions of taurine, GABA and other amino acids on motoneurons of the isolated frog spinal cord [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
The actions of glycine, GABA, α-alanine, β-alanine and taurine were studied by intracellular recordings from lumbar motoneurons of the isolated spinal cord of the frog.

Modulation of glutamate transport and receptor binding by glutamate receptor antagonists in EAE rat brain. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The etiology of multiple sclerosis (MS) is currently unknown. However, one potential mechanism involved in the disease may be excitotoxicity. The elevation of glutamate in cerebrospinal fluid, as well as changes in the expression of glutamate receptors ...

EPSPs in rat neocortical neurons in vitro. II. Involvement of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors in the generation of EPSPs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
1. Intracellular recordings were obtained from neurons in layer II/III of rat frontal cortex. Single-electrode current- and voltage-clamp techniques were employed to compare the sensitivity of excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) and ...

Platelet-derived growth factor-BB pretreatment attenuates excitotoxic death in cultured hippocampal neurons

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2005
Neuronal excitotoxic death results from excess stimulation by elevated levels of extracellular glutamate acting on N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) and α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors.

In vivo co-ordinated interactions between inhibitory systems to control glutamate mediated hippocampal excitability. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present an overview of the long-term adaptation of hippocampal neurotransmission to cholinergic and GABAergic deafferentation caused by excitotoxic lesion of the medial septum.

An Insight into Animal Glutamate Receptors Homolog of Arabidopsis thaliana and Their Potential Applications—A Review

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Most excitatory impulses received by neurons are mediated by ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs). These receptors are located at the apex and play an important role in memory, neuronal development, and synaptic plasticity.
