Serotonin Modulates Oscillations of the Membrane Potential in Isolated Spinal Neurons from Lampreys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Studies were performed on spinal neurons from lampreys isolated by an enzymatic/mechanical method using pronase. The effects of 100 µM serotonin (5-HT) on membrane potential oscillations induced by a variety of excitatory amino acids were studied.

Gene therapy for epilepsy: An emerging, promising approach for a serious neurological disorder

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Gene therapy is emerging as a groundbreaking strategy for treating epilepsy, offering new hope to patients who do not respond to conventional medications. Despite advancements in anti‐seizure treatments, nearly 30%–40% of individuals with epilepsy continue to experience uncontrolled seizures, highlighting the urgent need for more effective and

Kainate Receptor Post-translational Modifications Differentially Regulate Association with 4.1N to Control Activity-dependent Receptor Endocytosis*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
Background: The mechanisms that govern kainate receptor localization are poorly understood. Results: The cytoskeletal adapter 4.1N interacts with kainate receptors to promote receptor surface expression.

Delayed treatment with nimesulide reduces measures of oxidative stress following global ischemic brain injury in gerbils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Metabolism of arachidonic acid by cyclooxygenase is one of the primary sources of reactive oxygen species in the ischemic brain. Neuronal overexpression of cyclooxygenase-2 has recently been shown to contribute to neurodegeneration following ischemic ...

Targeting necroptosis protects against astrocyte death and hippocampal sclerosis in experimental temporal lobe epilepsy

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Experimentally induced status epilepticus induces microglial TNFα release, which binds to astrocytic TNFR1 and triggers activation of RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL signalling, initiating necroptotic astrocytic death that contributes to the development of hippocampal sclerosis. Created with Biorender.com.

Augmentation of Ca2+ signaling in astrocytic endfeet in the latent phase of temporal lobe epilepsy

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Astrocytic endfeet are specialized cell compartments whose important homeostatic roles depend on their enrichment of water and ion channels anchored by the dystrophin associated protein complex.

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).

Therapeutic Potential of Kainate Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience & Therapeutics, 2010
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 ...
