The Role of Glutamate Receptors in Epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Glutamate is an essential excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, playing an indispensable role in neuronal development and memory formation. The dysregulation of glutamate receptors and the glutamatergic system is involved in numerous

The role of glutamate receptors in the regulation of the tumor microenvironment [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Glutamate, as one of the most important carbon sources in the TCA cycle, is central in metabolic processes that will subsequently influence tumor progression.

An Insight into Animal Glutamate Receptors Homolog of Arabidopsis thaliana and Their Potential Applications—A Review [PDF]

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Most excitatory impulses received by neurons are mediated by ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs). These receptors are located at the apex and play an important role in memory, neuronal development, and synaptic plasticity.

A Review of Molecular Imaging of Glutamate Receptors

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Molecular imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is a well-established and important in vivo technique to evaluate fundamental biological processes and unravel the role of neurotransmitter ...

Emerging Trends in Pain Modulation by Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019
Pain is an essential protective mechanism meant to prevent tissue damages in organisms. On the other hand, chronic or persistent pain caused, for example, by inflammation or nerve injury is long lasting and responsible for long-term disability in ...

Glutamate, Glutamate Receptors, and Downstream Signaling Pathways [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biological Sciences, 2013
Glutamate is a nonessential amino acid, a major bioenergetic substrate for proliferating normal and neoplastic cells, and an excitatory neurotransmitter that is actively involved in biosynthetic, bioenergetic, metabolic, and oncogenic signaling pathways.

Ubiquitin-dependent trafficking and turnover of ionotropic glutamate receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2015
Changes in synaptic strength underlie the basis of learning and memory and are controlled, in part, by the insertion or removal of AMPA-type glutamate receptors at the postsynaptic membrane of excitatory synapses.

Glutamate and its receptors in cancer [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neural Transmission, 2014
Glutamate, a nonessential amino acid, is a major bioenergetic substrate for proliferating normal and neoplastic cells on one hand and an excitatory neurotransmitter that is actively involved in biosynthetic, bioenergetic, metabolic, and oncogenic signaling pathways on the other.

Two Signaling Modes Are Better than One: Flux-Independent Signaling by Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors Is Coming of Age [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedicines
Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Glutamatergic transmission can be mediated by ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs), which mediate rapid synaptic depolarization that can be associated with Ca2+ entry ...

Accuracy in readout of glutamate concentrations by neuronal cells [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal E, 46(4), 30 (2023), 2023
Glutamate and glycine are important neurotransmitters in the brain. An action potential prop- agating in the terminal of a presynatic neuron causes the release of glutamate and glycine in the synapse by vesicles fusing with the cell membrane, which then activate various receptors on the cell membrane of the post synaptic neuron.
