Calcium Permeable-AMPA Receptors and Excitotoxicity in Neurological Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021
Excitotoxicity is one of the primary mechanisms of cell loss in a variety of diseases of the central and peripheral nervous systems. Other than the previously established signaling pathways of excitotoxicity, which depend on the excessive release of ...

Insulin Protects Cortical Neurons Against Glutamate Excitotoxicity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Glutamate excitotoxicity is implicated in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases, such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, and Alzheimer’s disease, for which insulin resistance is a concomitant condition, and intranasal insulin treatment is believed to be ...

Micronutrients May Be a Unique Weapon Against the Neurotoxic Triad of Excitotoxicity, Oxidative Stress and Neuroinflammation: A Perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Excitotoxicity has been implicated in many neurological disorders and is a leading cause of oxidative stress and neuroinflammation in the nervous system.

A circuit-dependent ROS feedback loop mediates glutamate excitotoxicity to sculpt the Drosophila motor system

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is known to mediate glutamate excitotoxicity in neurological diseases. However, how ROS burdens can influence neural circuit integrity remains unclear.

Glutamate Scavenging as a Neuroreparative Strategy in Ischemic Stroke

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Stroke is the second highest reason of death in the world and the leading cause of disability. The ischemic stroke makes up the majority of stroke cases that occur due to the blockage of blood vessels. Therapeutic applications for ischemic stroke include

Double gene mutations of LRSAM1 and REEP1 and a new REEP1 mutation site found in a patient with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis with subjective paresthesia: A case report

open access: yesIbrain, EarlyView., 2023
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by selective degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons. Leucine‐rich repeats and sterility α mutations in motif 1 (LRSAM1) has been proven to be involved in the pathogenesis of ALS.

Roles of N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors (NMDARs) in Epilepsy

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders characterized by recurrent seizures. The mechanism of epilepsy remains unclear and previous studies suggest that N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) play an important role in abnormal ...

NMDA receptor antagonists as potential therapy in cerebellar degenerative disorders

open access: yesАнналы клинической и экспериментальной неврологии, 2022
Cerebellar degeneration remains a poorly studied topic. Excitotoxicity, i.e. neuronal damage and death due to excess activation of postsynaptic N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDAR) by glutamate, is considered to be a universal mechanism of most ...

The Susceptibility of Retinal Ganglion Cells to Glutamatergic Excitotoxicity Is Type-Specific

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are the only output neurons that conduct visual signals from the eyes to the brain. RGC degeneration occurs in many retinal diseases leading to blindness and increasing evidence suggests that RGCs are susceptible to various ...

Mechanism of Zinc Excitotoxicity: A Focus on AMPK

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Over the last 20 years, it has been shown that complex signaling cascades are involved in zinc excitotoxicity. Free zinc rapidly induces PKC activation, which causes reactive oxygen species (ROS) production at least in part through NADPH oxidase. It also
