FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The NlpC_P60 superfamily of peptidases is recognised by its key role in bacterial cell wall homeostasis. Recently, studies have also described the involvement of NlpC_P60‐like enzymes in bacterial competitive mechanisms and pathogenesis across several lineages.

Sources of extracellular glutamate in developing white matter [PDF]
, 2011 Neurotransmitters mediate synaptic communication between neurons and are therefore fundamental to such essential human characteristics as learning, memory, cognition and persona.

Simultaneous release of glutamate and acetylcholine from single magnocellular "cholinergic" basal forebrain neurons [PDF]
, 2006 Basal forebrain (BF) neurons provide the principal cholinergic drive to the hippocampus and cortex. Their degeneration is associated with the cognitive defects of Alzheimer's disease. Immunohistochemical studies suggest that some of these neurons contain

Glutamate receptor ion channels [PDF]
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2005 Glutamate receptor ion channels mediate excitatory responses at the majority of CNS synapses. They are the only ligand-gated ion channels for which multiple high-resolution crystal structures have been solved. Highlights of information gained from mechanistic studies based on the crystal structures of their ligand-binding domains include explanations ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.NAD+ regeneration by mitochondrial complex I NADH dehydrogenase is important for cancer cell proliferation. Specifically, NAD+ is necessary for the activities of NAD+‐dependent deacetylases SIRT3 and SIRT7, which suppress the expression of p21Cip1 cyclin‐dependent kinase inhibitor, an antiproliferative molecule, at the translational and transcriptional

Glutamatergic Mechanisms in Glioblastoma and Tumor-Associated Epilepsy
Cells, 2021 The progression of glioblastomas is associated with a variety of neurological impairments, such as tumor-related epileptic seizures. Seizures are not only a common comorbidity of glioblastoma but often an initial clinical symptom of this cancer entity ...

, 2016 NMDA receptors are ion channels activated by the neurotransmitter glutamate in the mammalian brain and are important in synaptic function and plasticity, but are also found in extrasynaptic locations and influence neuronal excitability.

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

EMBO Reports, 2014 The orphan GluD2 receptor belongs to the ionotropic glutamate receptor family but does not bind glutamate. Ligand‐gated GluD2 currents have never been evidenced, and whether GluD2 operates as an ion channel has been a long‐standing question.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Chronic TGF‐β exposure drives epithelial HCC cells from a senescent state to a TGF‐β resistant mesenchymal phenotype. This transition is characterized by the loss of Smad3‐mediated signaling, escape from senescence, enhanced invasiveness and metastatic potential, and upregulation of key resistance modulators such as MARK1 and GRM8, ultimately promoting
