The anticonvulsant zonisamide positively modulates recombinant and native glycine receptors at clinically relevant concentrations

open access: yesNeuropharmacology, 2021
GABAA and glycine receptors mediate fast synaptic inhibitory neurotransmission. Despite studies showing that activation of cerebral glycine receptors could be a potential strategy in the treatment of epilepsy, few studies have assessed the effects of ...

The glycine receptor

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1997
The inhibitory glycine receptor (GlyR) is a member of the ligand-gated ion channel receptor superfamily. The GlyR comprises a pentameric complex that forms a chloride-selective transmembrane channel, which is predominantly expressed in the spinal cord and brain stem. We review the pharmacological and physiological properties of the GlyR and relate this

Glycine receptors: Structure, function, and therapeutic implications [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Aspects of Medicine
Glycine receptors are considered as an integral part of higher brain function in mammals. The main function of glycine receptor is fast inhibitory transmission brought about by glycine neurotransmitter, its full agonist.

Central glycine-receptors

General Pharmacology: The Vascular System, 1978
Abstract 1. Recent studies aimed at elucidating synaptic glycine-receptors have been reviewed. 2. Biochemical and iontophoretic findings have revealed that such receptors exist in several regions of the vertebrate CNS. 3. Subcellular studies with labelled strychnine and glycine have revealed that strychnine does not interact directly with glycine ...

Modulators of the Inhibitory Glycine Receptor

ACS Chemical Neuroscience, 2020
The inhibitory glycine receptor is a member of the Cys-loop superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels. It is the principal mediator of rapid synaptic inhibition in the spinal cord and brainstem and plays an important role in the modulation of higher brain functions including vision, hearing, and pain signaling. Glycine receptor function is controlled by

The inhibitory neuronal glycine receptor

BioEssays, 1994
AbstractGlycine is a major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the spinal cord and in the brain stem, where it acts by activating a chloride conductance. The postsynaptic glycine receptor has been purified and contains two transmembrane subunits of 48 kDa (α) and 58 kDa (β), and a peripheral membrane protein of 93 kDa.

The Glycine Receptor

1985
In the vertebrate CNS, many different compounds including acetylcholine, catecholamines, peptides, and amino acids have been identified as bona fide or candidate neurotransmitter substances. Amongst these the amino acids glycine and GABA have been particularly well characterized.

Functional reconstitution of the glycine receptor

Biochemistry, 1989
The functional reconstitution of the chloride channel coupled glycine receptor is described. Glycine receptors were purified from the cholate extract of rat spinal cord membranes by affinity chromatography and incorporated into phospholipid vesicles by the addition of phosphatidylcholine and removal of detergent by gel filtration.

Biology of the Postsynaptic Glycine Receptor

1997
Glycine is one of the major inhibitory neurotransmitters, and upon binding to its receptor it activates chloride conductances. Receptors are accumulated immediately opposite release sites, at the postsynaptic differentiations, where they form functional microdomains.
