Distribution of Extrasynaptic NMDA Receptors on Neurons [PDF]
The Scientific World Journal, 2012 NMDA receptors are found in both synaptic and extrasynaptic locations on neurons. NMDA receptors also can be found on neurons in early stages prior to synaptogenesis, where they may be involved in migration and differentiation.

Tau is required for the function of extrasynaptic NMDA receptors [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 Tau is a microtubule-associated neuronal protein found mainly in axons. However, increasing evidence indicates that it is also present in dendrites, where it serves as an essential mediator of synaptic NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor-dependent ...

Cerebellar Cortex: Computation by Extrasynaptic Inhibition? [PDF]
Current Biology, 2002 In the cerebellar cortex, inhibitory inputs to granule cells exhibit prominent tonic and spillover components resulting from the activation of extrasynaptic receptors.

Metabotropic Regulation of Extrasynaptic GABAA Receptors [PDF]
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013 A large body of work now shows the importance of GABAA receptor-mediated tonic inhibition in regulating CNS function. However, outside of pathological conditions, there is relatively little evidence that the magnitude of tonic inhibition is itself under ...

Modulating anxiety with extrasynaptic inhibition [PDF]
, 2014 Traumatic experiences and stress can lead to complex behavioral adaptations, including increased levels of anxiety and fear generalization. The neuronal mechanisms underlying such maladaptive behavioral changes are, however, poorly understood.

Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2018 This review article deals with the mechanisms of extrasynaptic release of transmitter substances, namely the release from the soma, axon and dendrites in the absence of postsynaptic counterparts.

Extrasynaptic vesicle recycling in mature hippocampal neurons [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2011 Fast neuronal signalling relies on highly regulated vesicle fusion and recycling at specialized presynaptic terminals. Recently, examples of non-classical neurotransmission have also been reported, where fusion of vesicles can occur at sites remote from ...

Extrasynaptic exocytosis and its mechanisms: a source of molecules mediating volume transmission in the nervous system [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2012 We review the evidence of exocytosis from extrasynaptic sites in the soma, dendrites and axonal varicosities of central and peripheral neurons of vertebrates and invertebrates, and how it may contribute to signaling in the nervous system.

Re-Evaluation of the Ultrastructural Localization of Tonic GABA-A Receptors [PDF]
PharmaceuticalsCell membrane receptors play key roles in physiological and pathological processes, yet the mechanisms governing their expression and distribution across the plasma membrane remain not completely understood. Broadly, membrane receptors can be categorized

DMV extrasynaptic NMDA receptors regulate caloric intake in rats
JCI Insight, 2021 Acute high-fat diet (aHFD) exposure induces a brief period of hyperphagia before caloric balance is restored. Previous studies have demonstrated that this period of regulation is associated with activation of synaptic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA ...
