The GluN3-containing NMDA receptors

Channels
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are heterotetrameric ion channels that play crucial roles in brain function. Among all the NMDAR subtypes, GluN1-N3 receptors exhibit unique agonist binding and gating properties.

IgG Isolated from LP-BM5 Infected Mouse Brain Activates Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors

Neurobiology of Disease, 2001
Biochemical and immunological studies have shown that mice infected with LP-BM5 virus develop antibodies to ionotropic glutamate receptors. Here, IgG isolated from brain of infected mice has been tested electrophysiologically on cultured rat cortical and

CCDC80 suppresses high‐grade serous ovarian cancer migration via negative regulation of B7‐H3

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PAX8 is a lineage‐specific master regulator of transcription in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) progression. We show for the first time that PAX8 facilitates proliferation and metastasis by repressing the cell autonomous tumor suppressor CCDC80 and inducing B7‐H3 expression.

Activity-dependent endogenous taurine release facilitates excitatory neurotransmission in the neocortical marginal zone of neonatal rats

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
In the developing cerebral cortex, the marginal zone (MZ), consisting of early-generated neurons such as Cajal-Retzius cells, plays an important role in cell migration and lamination.

Photocontrol of Endogenous Glycine Receptors In Vivo [PDF]

Cell Chemical Biology, 2020
Glycine receptors (GlyRs) are indispensable for maintaining excitatory/inhibitory balance in neuronal circuits that control reflexes and rhythmic motor behaviors. Here we have developed Glyght, a GlyR ligand controlled with light. It is selective over other Cys-loop receptors, is active in vivo, and displays an allosteric mechanism of action.

Interpreting the effects of DNA polymerase variants at the structural level

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Using MAVISp and molecular dynamics simulations, we analyzed over 60 000 missense variants in POLE and POLD1 from ClinVar, COSMIC, cBioPortal, and saturation mutagenesis. Identified mechanistic indicators, including stability, binding, and long‐range, enable structural interpretation, providing ACMG‐like evidence for possible reclassification of VUS ...

USP29‐regulated noncanonical stabilization of the hypoxia‐inducible factor‐α in aggressive prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identify USP29 as the only DUB mirroring CA9 expression, a marker of hypoxia and HIF pathway activation associated with PCA aggressiveness. USP29 stabilizes HIF‐1α and HIF‐2α via a noncanonical mechanism that is independent of PHD/pVHL activity yet relies on proteasomal regulation, establishing USP29 as a previously unrecognized regulator of hypoxic

BENZODIAZEPINES AND CENTRAL GLYCINE RECEPTORS [PDF]

British Journal of Pharmacology, 1976
In cats, anaesthetized with pentobarbitone, intravenous diazepam (minimum dose 3.0 mg/kg) enhanced dorsal root potentials but did not significantly diminish the reduction by electrophoretic strychnine of the inhibitory action of electrophoretic glycine on dorsal horn interneurones.

Inhibition of cyclin‐dependent kinases 12/13 using CT7439 as a treatment for colorectal cancer with CDK12 upregulation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The proposed mechanism of action for the CDK12/13 inhibitor and cyclin K degrader, CT7439. CDK12/13 inhibition interrupts transcription elongation, leading to increased DNA damage that results in cell death. This agent is a potentially novel treatment option for patients with colorectal cancer. Created in BioRender. Cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) 12 and

Illumination of a progressive allosteric mechanism mediating the glycine receptor activation

Nature Communications, 2023
Glycine receptors are channel receptors mediating signal transduction between neurons that transit between resting and open states upon neurotransmitter binding.
