Phased Treatment Strategies for Cerebral Ischemia Based on Glutamate Receptors
Extracellular glutamate accumulation following cerebral ischemia leads to overactivation of glutamate receptors, thereby resulting in intracellular Ca2+ overload and excitotoxic neuronal injury. Multiple attempts have been made to counteract such effects

Dopamine protects neurons against glutamate-induced excitotoxicity [PDF]
Glutamate excitotoxicity is responsible for neuronal death in acute neurological disorders including stroke, trauma and neurodegenerative disease. Loss of calcium homeostasis is a key mediator of glutamate-induced cell death.

Metabotropic glutamate receptors in cancer [PDF]
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are widely known for their roles in synaptic signaling. However, accumulating evidence suggests roles of mGluRs in human malignancies in addition to synaptic transmission. Somatic cell homeostasis presents intriguing possibilities of mGluRs and glutamate signaling as novel targets for human cancers.

The orexin/hypocretin neuropeptides are produced by a cluster of neurons within the lateral posterior hypothalamus and participate in neuronal regulation by activating their receptors (OX1 and OX2 receptors).

Synergistic inhibition of survival, proliferation, and migration of U87 cells with a combination of LY341495 and Iressa. [PDF]
Glioblastomas exploit various molecular pathways to promote glutamate- dependent growth by activating the AMPA (2-amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-methyl-isoxazol-4-yl) propanoic acid) receptor, the group II metabotropic glutamate receptor, mGluR, and the epidermal ...

Glutamate-induced depression of EPSP–spike coupling in rat hippocampal CA1 neurons and modulation by adenosine receptors [PDF]
The presence of high concentrations of glutamate in the extracellular fluid following brain trauma or ischaemia may contribute substantially to subsequent impairments of neuronal function.

Glutamate receptor pores [PDF]
AbstractGlutamate receptors are ligand‐gated ion channels that mediate fast excitatory synaptic transmission throughout the central nervous system. Functional receptors are homo‐ or heteromeric tetramers with each subunit contributing a re‐entrant pore loop that dips into the membrane from the cytoplasmic side. The pore loops form a narrow constriction

AMPA and Kainate Receptors Each Mediate Excitotoxicity in Oligodendroglial Cultures
Recent studies indicate that oligodendrocytes are vulnerable to excitotoxic insults mediated by glutamate receptors. The present study was carried out to characterize the type of glutamate receptors triggering cell death in optic nerve oligodendrocyte ...
