Glutamate-induced Exocytosis of Glutamate from Astrocytes

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2007
Recent studies indicate that astrocytes can play a much more active role in neuronal circuits than previously believed, by releasing neurotransmitters such as glutamate and ATP. Here we report that local application of glutamate or glutamine synthetase inhibitors induces astrocytic release of glutamate, which activates a slowly decaying transient ...

Phosphine Catalyzed Michael-Type Additions: The Synthesis of Glutamic Acid Derivatives from Arylidene-α-amino Esters

Molecules
The reaction of arylidene-α-amino esters with electrophilic alkenes to yield Michael-type addition compounds is optimized using several phosphines as organocatalysts. The transformation is very complicated due to the generation of several final compounds,

Obesity as a Limiting Factor for Remote Ischemic Postconditioning-Mediated Neuroprotection after Stroke

Journal of Obesity & Metabolic Syndrome
Background : Remote ischemic postconditioning (RIPostC) may protect the brain from ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. The association between RIPostC and obesity has not yet been extensively studied.

Beyond Sulfate-Free Personal Cleansing Technology

Cosmetics
There is a strong global demand for sulfate-free personal cleansing products. The objective of sulfate-free personal cleansing technology should not be aimed solely at the absence of “sulfate” wording in the list of ingredients, but on the true benefits ...

Epitope-tagged and phosphomimetic mouse models for investigating natriuretic peptide-stimulated receptor guanylyl cyclases

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
The natriuretic peptide receptors NPR1 and NPR2, also known as guanylyl cyclase A and guanylyl cyclase B, have critical functions in many signaling pathways, but much remains unknown about their localization and function in vivo. To facilitate studies of

Expression and purification of recombinant vesicular glutamate transporter VGLUT1 using PC12 cells and High Five insect cells

Biological Procedures Online, 2004
In synaptic vesicles, the estimated concentration of the excitatory amino acid glutamate is 100-150 mM. It was recently discovered that VGLUT1, previously characterized as an inorganic phosphate transporter (BNPI) with 9-11 predicted transmembrane ...
