In mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) an initial precipitating injury can trigger aberrant wiring of neuronal circuits causing seizure activity. While circuit reorganization is known to be largely activity-dependent, the interactions between neuronal ...

Galanin receptor 1 deletion exacerbates hippocampal neuronal loss after systemic kainate administration in mice. [PDF]
Galanin is a neuropeptide with a wide distribution in the central and peripheral nervous systems and whose physiological effects are mediated through three G protein-coupled receptor subtypes, GalR1, GalR2, and GalR3.

Neuropharmacological targets for drug action in vestibular sensory pathways [PDF]
The use of pharmacological agents is often the preferred approach to the management of vestibular dysfunction. In the vestibular sensory pathways, the sensory neuroepithelia are thought to be influenced by a diverse number of neuroactive substances that ...

Ectodermal tissue excised from Xenopus embryos self‐organizes into a three‐dimensional mucociliary organoid. Here, we generate a neural variant, termed neurobot, by implanting neural precursor cells. Neurobots develop mature neurons, adopt distinct morphologies, exhibit more complex motility, and respond differentially to neuroactive compounds. Imaging

ABSTRACT Medically intractable temporal lobe epilepsy is associated with potential neuronal and glial damage in key brain structures, including the hippocampus and amygdala. This study aimed to examine apoptosis, caspase expression, and glial activation markers in these regions, and to evaluate their associations with clinical variables.

In the present study, we report that low concentrations of the glutamate ionotropic agonist kainate decreased the turnover of [3H]-phosphoinositides ([3H]-InsPs) induced by muscarinic receptors in the chick embryonic retina.

A novel inhibitor of p75-neurotrophin receptor improves functional outcomes in two models of traumatic brain injury. [PDF]
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important in multiple physiological actions including neuronal survival and neurite outgrowth during development, and after central nervous system injury.

GLP‐1 at the Metabolic–Cognitive Interface: Reward, Affect, and Memory
GLP‐1R signaling integrates metabolic state with neural circuits controlling reward, mood, and memory, acting as a metabolic‐cognitive interface. In reward pathways, it suppresses hedonic feeding and drug seeking; in affective circuits, sustained signaling promotes anxiolytic and antidepressant effects; and in the hippocampus, it enhances synaptic ...

Therapeutic Potential of Kainate Receptors [PDF]
SUMMARYGlutamate receptors are key mediators of brain communication. Among ionotropic glutamate receptors, kainate receptors (KARs) have been least explored and their relevance to pathophysiology is relatively obscure. This is in part due to the relatively low abundance of KARs, the regulatory function in network activity they play, the lack of ...
