The GDP-GTP exchange factor collybistin: an essential determinant of neuronal gephyrin clustering [PDF]

, 2004
Glycine receptors (GlyRs) and specific subtypes of GABA(A) receptors are clustered at synapses by the multidomain protein gephyrin, which in turn is translocated to the cell membrane by the GDP-GTP exchange factor collybistin.

Case report: Varicella-zoster virus infection triggering progressive encephalomyelitis with rigidity and myoclonus

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
Progressive encephalomyelitis with rigidity and myoclonus (PERM) is a rare neurological disease of unknown etiology, and most patients with PERM are positive for anti-glycine receptor (GlyR) antibody.

A role for accumbal glycine receptors in modulation of dopamine release by the glycine transporter-1 inhibitor Org25935

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2011
Accumbal glycine modulates basal and ethanol-induced dopamine levels in the nucleus accumbens (nAc) as well as voluntary ethanol consumption. Also, systemic administration of the glycine transporter-1 inhibitor Org25935 elevates dopamine levels in nAc ...

Tripartite signalling by NMDA receptors

Molecular Brain, 2020
N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are excitatory glutamatergic receptors that are fundamental for many neuronal processes, including synaptic plasticity.

Zinc modulation of glycine receptors [PDF]

Neuroscience, 2011
Glycine receptors are widely expressed in the mammalian central nervous system, and previous studies have demonstrated that glycine receptors are modulated by endogenous zinc. Zinc is concentrated in synaptic vesicles in several brain regions but is particularly abundant in the hippocampus and olfactory bulb.

Functional recovery of glycine receptors in spastic murine model of startle disease

Neurobiology of Disease, 2006
Clinical variability is common in inherited gene defects of the central nervous system in humans and in animal models of human disorders. Here, we used the homozygous spastic (spa) mutant mice, which resemble human hereditary hyperekplexia, to determine ...

Case Report: Dexmedetomidine for Intractable Clusters of Myoclonic Jerks and Paroxysmal Sympathetic Hyperactivity in Progressive Encephalomyelitis With Rigidity and Myoclonus

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Introduction: Progressive encephalomyelitis with rigidity and myoclonus (PERM) is a severe form of stiff-person spectrum disorder characterized by painful spasms, myoclonic jerks, hyperekplexia, brainstem dysfunction, and dysautonomia, which is sometimes

Cannabinoids Rescue Cocaine-Induced Seizures by Restoring Brain Glycine Receptor Dysfunction

Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: Cannabinoids are reported to rescue cocaine-induced seizures (CISs), a severe complication in cocaine users. However, the molecular targets for cannabinoid therapy of CISs remain unclear.
