Release of ATP and glutamate in the nucleus tractus solitarii mediate pulmonary stretch receptor (Breuer-Hering) reflex pathway [PDF]
, 2008 The Breuer-Hering inflation reflex is initiated by activation of the slowly adapting pulmonary stretch receptor afferents (SARs), which monosynaptically activate second-order relay neurones in the dorsal medullary nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS ...

Insect odorant response sensitivity is tuned by metabotropically autoregulated olfactory receptors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Insects possess one of the most exquisitely sensitive olfactory systems in the animal kingdom, consisting of three different types of chemosensory receptors: ionotropic glutamate-like receptors (IRs), gustatory receptors (GRs) and odorant receptors (ORs).

High-Affinity Kainate Receptor Subunits Are Necessary for Ionotropic but Not Metabotropic Signaling [PDF]
, 2009 SummaryKainate receptors signal through both ionotropic and metabotropic pathways. The high-affinity subunits, GluK4 and GluK5, are unique among the five receptor subunits, as they do not form homomeric receptors but modify the properties of heteromeric ...

Undifferentiated embryonic stem cells express ionotropic glutamate receptor mRNAs
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013 Ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) do not only mediate the majority of excitatory neurotransmission in the vertebrate CNS, but also modulate pre- and postnatal neurogenesis.

Identification of functional ionotropic glutamate receptor proteins in pancreatic β-cells and in islets of Langerhans [PDF]
, 1995 The presence of ionotropic glutamate receptor proteins in islets of Langerhans and pancreatic β-cell lines (MIN6, HIT T15, RINm5F) was investigated. For this purpose immunoblot analysis of β-cell membranes was performed with subunit-specific antibodies ...

Tuning Insect Odorant Receptors
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018 Among the insect olfactory receptors the odorant receptors (ORs) evolved in parallel to the onset of insect flight. A special property of this receptor type is the capability to adjust sensitivity of odor detection according to previous odor contacts ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Establishment of bidirectional communication behavior between natural and artificial cells. The first type of communication from natural dendritic cells to artificial polymeric cells was achieved via ATP release after cell lysis. The released ATP was taken up via gated UV‐controlled permeability increase of the polymeric membrane for performing ...

Structural Dynamics and Allosteric Signaling in Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors [PDF]
, 2013 Ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) are ligand-gated ion channels that mediate excitatory neurotransmission events in the central nervous system. All distinct classes of iGluRs (AMPA, NMDA, Kainate) are composed of an N-terminal domain (NTD) and a ...
