Neuroprotection via Strychnine-Sensitive Glycine Receptors During Post-ischemic Recovery of Excitatory Synaptic Transmission in the Hippocampus

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2010
Recent evidence indicates that strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors are located in upper brain regions including the hippocampus. Because of excitatory effects of glycine via facilitation of NMDA-receptor function, however, the net effects of increased

Serotonin drives a novel GABAergic synaptic current recorded in rat cerebellar purkinje cells: a lugaro cell to purkinje cell synapse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We recorded a novel fast GABAergic synaptic current in cerebellar Purkinje cells in rat brain slices using patch-clamp techniques. Because of a relatively low sensitivity to bicuculline, these currents can be recorded under conditions in which basket and

Glycine is able to induce both a motility speed in- and decrease during zebrafish neuronal migration

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2018
Various neurotransmitters influence neuronal migration in the developing zebrafish hindbrain. Migrating tegmental hindbrain nuclei neurons (THNs) are governed by depolarizing neurotransmitters (acetylcholine and glutamate), and glycine. In mature neurons,

Identifying functional populations among the interneurons in laminae I-III of the spinal dorsal horn [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The spinal dorsal horn receives input from primary afferent axons, which terminate in a modality-specific fashion in different laminae. The incoming somatosensory information is processed through complex synaptic circuits involving excitatory and ...

4-Chloropropofol enhances chloride currents in human hyperekplexic and artificial mutated glycine receptors

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2012
Background The mammalian neurological disorder hereditary hyperekplexia can be attributed to various mutations of strychnine sensitive glycine receptors.

Different Sites of Alcohol Action in the NMDA Receptor GluN2A and GluN2B Subunits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The NMDA receptor is a major target of alcohol action in the CNS, and recent behavioral and cellular studies have pointed to the importance of the GluN2B subunit in alcohol action.

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Neuronal circuitry for pain processing in the dorsal horn [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Neurons in the spinal dorsal horn process sensory information, which is then transmitted to several brain regions, including those responsible for pain perception.
