Synaptic NMDA receptors mediate hypoxic excitotoxic death [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012

Positive allosteric modulators of the a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
L-glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) and plays a fundamental role in the control of motor function, cognition and mood.

AMPA and Kainate Receptors Each Mediate Excitotoxicity in Oligodendroglial Cultures

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 1999
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 ...

Inhibition of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier protects from excitotoxic neuronal death. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Glutamate is the dominant excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, but under conditions of metabolic stress it can accumulate to excitotoxic levels.

Phased Treatment Strategies for Cerebral Ischemia Based on Glutamate Receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
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

Glutamate Receptors in Plants [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2002
Ionotropic glutamate receptors function in animals as glutamate-gated non-selective cation channels. Numerous glutamate receptor-like (GLR) genes have been identified in plant genomes, and plant GLRs are predicted, on the basis of sequence homology, to retain ligand-binding and ion channel activity. Non-selective cation channels are ubiquitous in plant

Modulation of glutamate transport and receptor binding by glutamate receptor antagonists in EAE rat brain. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The etiology of multiple sclerosis (MS) is currently unknown. However, one potential mechanism involved in the disease may be excitotoxicity. The elevation of glutamate in cerebrospinal fluid, as well as changes in the expression of glutamate receptors ...

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.

mGluR5 antagonism inhibits cocaine reinforcement and relapse by elevation of extracellular glutamate in the nucleus accumbens via a CB1 receptor mechanism. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) antagonism inhibits cocaine self-administration and reinstatement of drug-seeking behavior. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying this action are poorly understood.
