Аlterationdegree of NMDA and AMPA receptors of glutamate in the pathogenesis of the disease and technological peculiarities of surgical treatment of the hemispheric glioma-swith the epileptic syndrome

open access: yesУчёные записки Санкт-Петербургского государственного медицинского университета им. Акад. И.П. Павлова, 2014
The development of effective approaches to the treatment of patients with symptomatic tumor epilepsy was determined by the level of our fundamental knowledge of the basic mechanisms of epileptogenesis on cellular and molecular level.

CNS4 causes subtype‐specific changes in agonist efficacy and reversal potential of permeant cations in NMDA receptors

open access: yesPharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2023
The NMDA subtype of glutamate receptor serves as an attractive drug target for the treatment of disorders evolving from hyper‐ or hypoglutamatergic conditions.

Metabotropic glutamate receptors in cancer [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropharmacology, 2017
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.

Tryptophan metabolite atlas uncovers organ, age, and sex‐specific variations

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tryptophan metabolites were analyzed across twelve organs, the central nervous system, and serum in male and female mice at three life stages. We found tissue‐, sex‐, and age‐specific differences, including increased indole‐3‐pyruvate and kynurenine in aging males.

Regulation of Arabidopsis 14-3-3 gene expression by GABA. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The function in plants of the non-protein amino acid, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is poorly understood. In this study, we show that GABA down-regulates the expression of a large sub-set of 14-3-3 gene family members in Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings ...

Energetics of Glutamate Binding to an Ionotropic Glutamate Receptor [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2017
Ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) are ligand-gated ion channels that are responsible for the majority of excitatory transmission at the synaptic cleft. Mechanically speaking, agonist binding to the ligand binding domain (LBD) activates the receptor by triggering a conformational change that is transmitted to the transmembrane region, opening the ...

Homologous expression and purification of human HAX‐1 for structural studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This research protocol provides detailed instructions for cloning, expressing, and purifying large quantities of the intrinsically disordered human HAX‐1 protein, N‐terminally fused to a cleavable superfolder GFP, from mammalian cells. HAX‐1 is predicted to undergo posttranslational modifications and to interact with membranes, various cellular ...

FGF-2 Induces Neuronal Death through Upregulation of System xc- [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The cystine/glutamate antiporter (system xc-) transports cystine into cell in exchange for glutamate. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) upregulates system xc- selectively on astrocytes, which leads to increased cystine uptake, the substrate for ...

Evaluation of in vitro toxicity of common phytochemicals included in weight loss supplements using 1H NMR spectroscopy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We investigated the toxicity of 12 active compounds commonly found in herbal weight loss supplements (WLS) using human liver and colon cell models. Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate was the only compound showing significant toxicity. Metabolic profiling revealed protein degradation, disrupted energy and lipid metabolism suggesting that the inclusion of EGCG ...

Common Mechanisms Underlying Opioid Tolerance and Dependence and Neuropathic Pain: Role of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors

open access: yesPain Research and Management, 2000
It has been suggested that opioid tolerance and dependence share common mechanisms with neuropathic pain. This short review deals with the role of glutamate and glutamate receptors in opioid tolerance and dependence, and neuropathic pain.
