Nimesulide limits kainate-induced oxidative damage in the rat hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pharmacology, 2000
Kainate induces a marked expression of cyclooxygenase-2 after its systemic administration. Because cyclooxygenase-2 activity is associated to the production of reactive oxygen species, we investigated the effects of nimesulide, a selective cyclooxygenase-

Cortical neurones exhibiting kainate-activated Co2+uptake are selectively vulnerable to AMPA/kainate receptor-mediated toxicity

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 1994
Kainate-activated Co2+uptake, a histochemical method that identifies cells bearing Ca2+-permeable AMPA/kainate receptors, labels approximately 15% of murine cortical neurones in cell culture.

Oligodendrocyte precursor cell AMPA receptors differ with age and brain region while kainate receptors remain stable [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) proliferate and differentiate into myelinating oligodendrocytes throughout life. Many cues modulate OPC proliferation and differentiation, including neuronal activity, which OPCs sense through voltage-gated

GluK2 kainate receptor subunit-selective, potentiating RNA aptamer [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Kainate receptors are a subtype of ionotropic glutamate receptors. Potent and selective modulatory agents of kainate receptors are potential drug candidates for treatment of various neurological diseases involving receptor dysregulation.

Perampanel inhibition of AMPA receptor currents in cultured hippocampal neurons. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Perampanel is an aryl substituted 2-pyridone AMPA receptor antagonist that was recently approved as a treatment for epilepsy. The drug potently inhibits AMPA receptor responses but the mode of block has not been characterized.

Mitochondrial superoxide production and MnSOD activity following exposure to an agonist and antagonists of ionotropic receptors in rat brain [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2005
The involvement of NMDA and AMPA/kainate receptors in the induction of superoxide production in the rat brain was examined after intrahippocampal injection of kainate, a non-NMDA receptor agonist; kainate plus CNQX, a selective AMPA/kainate receptor ...

Structural Arrangement Produced by Concanavalin A Binding to Homomeric GluK2 Receptors

open access: yesMembranes, 2021
Kainate receptors are members of the ionotropic glutamate receptor family. They form cation-specific transmembrane channels upon binding glutamate that desensitize in the continued presence of agonists.

Effect of glutamate antagonists on nitric oxide production in rat brain following intrahippocampal injection [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2007
Stimulation of glutamate receptors induces neuronal nitric oxide (NO) release, which in turn modulates glutamate transmission. The involvement of ionotropic glutamate NMDA and AMPA/kainate receptors in induction of NO production in the rat brain was ...

Histological Correlates of Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Microscopy in a Mouse Model of Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is the most common type of focal epilepsy. It is frequently associated with abnormal MRI findings, which are caused by underlying cellular, structural, and chemical changes at the micro-scale. In the current study, it

Resilient Hippocampal Gamma Rhythmogenesis and Parvalbumin-Expressing Interneuron Function Before and After Plaque Burden in 5xFAD Alzheimer’s Disease Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2022
Recent studies have implicated impaired Parvalbumin Fast-Spiking Interneuron (PVIN) function as a precipitating factor underlying abnormalities in network synchrony, oscillatory rhythms, and cognition associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
