Glycine receptor mutants of the mouse: what are possible routes of inhibitory compensation?
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2012 Defects in glycinergic inhibition result in a complex neuromotor disorder in humans known as hyperekplexia (OMIM 149400) with similar phenotypes in rodents characterized by an exaggerated startle reflex and hypertonia.

Cl− concentration changes and desensitization of GABAA and glycine receptors
The Journal of General Physiology, 2011 Desensitization of ligand-gated ion channels plays a critical role for the information transfer between neurons. The current view on γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)A and glycine receptors includes significant rapid components of desensitization as well as ...

Engineering of Glioblastoma‐Derived Biomimetic Vesicles and Their Structural and Molecular Features
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biomimetic nanosystems and vesicles have arisen as a novel approach to design vesicular transport systems with diverse therapeutic potential. The ‘biomimetic’ strategy involves the integration of cell membrane components into lipid bilayers, conferring them with biological properties originating from the cell of origin. Until now, most studies

Nature Communications, 2016 Glycine sensing in the dorsal vagal complex (DVC) regulates hepatic glucose production in rodents. Here the authors show that pharmacological and molecular inhibition of glycine reuptake in the DVC potentiates NMDA receptors, and improves metabolic ...

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

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Pressure skin wounds are frequent complications after spinal cord injury (SCI), with impaired healing due to vascular and immune deficits. Elastin‐like polypeptides (ELP) fused to α‐MSH (MSH‐ELP) or MCP‐1 (MCP‐ELP) are developed and tested on these wounds. The resulting nanoparticles are non‐toxic and bioactive, and they enhance macrophage recruitment,
