l-Lactate-Mediated Neuroprotection against Glutamate-Induced Excitotoxicity Requires ARALAR/AGC1

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2016
ARALAR/AGC1/Slc25a12, the aspartate-glutamate carrier from brain mitochondria, is the regulatory step in the malate-aspartate NADH shuttle, MAS. MAS is used to oxidize cytosolic NADH in mitochondria, a process required to maintain oxidative glucose ...

Endocytosis of GluN2B-containing NMDA receptor mediates NMDA-induced excitotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2017
N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor overactivation is involved in neuronal damage after stroke. However, the mechanism underlying NMDA receptor-mediated excitotoxicity remains unclear.

Death Associated Protein Kinase (DAPK) -mediated neurodegenerative mechanisms in nematode excitotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Excitotoxicity (the toxic overstimulation of neurons by the excitatory transmitter Glutamate) is a central process in widespread neurodegenerative conditions such as brain ischemia and chronic neurological diseases.

Optimized Long‐TE 1H sLASER MR Spectroscopic Imaging at 3T for Separate Quantification of Glutamate and Glutamine in Glioma

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Glutamate and glutamine are critical metabolites in gliomas, each serving distinct roles in tumor biology. Separate quantification of these metabolites using in vivo MR spectroscopy (MRS) at clinical field strengths (≤ 3T) is hindered by their molecular similarity, resulting in overlapping, hence indistinguishable, spectral peaks ...

Glaucoma: Current and New Therapeutic Approaches

open access: yesBiomedicines
Glaucoma is identified by the loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). The primary approach to managing glaucoma is to control intraocular pressure (IOP).

Selective inhibition of GluN2D-containing N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors prevents tissue plasminogen activator-promoted neurotoxicity both in vitro and in vivo

open access: yesMolecular Neurodegeneration, 2011
Background Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) exerts multiple functions in the central nervous system, depending on the partner with which it interacts. In particular, tPA acts as a positive neuromodulator of N-methyl-D-aspartate glutamatergic receptors (
