Lonicerin (LON) at doses of 5 and 10 mg/kg reduced sleep latency and increased sleep duration in mice, with combined LON and diazepam showing maximal effects. Computational docking showed LON binds to GABAA receptor sites with a strong affinity (−8.1 kcal/mol), suggesting potential as an insomnia treatment. ABSTRACT Background: Lonicerin (LON) has been

Role of Glutamate Excitotoxicity in Glioblastoma Growth and Its Implications in Treatment
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma is a highly malignant and invasive type of primary brain tumor that originates from astrocytes. Glutamate, a neurotransmitter in the brain plays a crucial role in excitotoxic cell death. Excessive glutamate triggers a pathological process known as glutamate excitotoxicity, leading to neuronal damage.

Astrocytes Mediate Psychostimulant‐Induced Alterations of Spike‐Timing Dependent Synaptic Plasticity
Main Points Cocaine and amphetamine stimulates astrocytes and downregulates the GLT‐1. The dysfunction in GLT‐1 modify EPSP kinetics and modulate STDP, switching LTP to LTD in psychostimulant‐treated mice. These effects were restored by upregulation of GLT‐1.
