Kainate receptors and synaptic plasticity

open access: yesNeuropharmacology, 2021
Synaptic plasticity has classically been characterized to involve the NMDA and AMPA subtypes of glutamate receptors, with NMDA receptors providing the key trigger for the induction of long-term plasticity leading to changes in AMPA receptor expression.

Kainate receptors

Cell and Tissue Research, 2006
Kainate receptors form a family of ionotropic glutamate receptors that appear to play a special role in the regulation of the activity of synaptic networks. This review first describes briefly the molecular and pharmacological properties of native and recombinant kainate receptors.

Synaptic kainate receptors

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2000
Kainate receptors are a family of ionotropic glutamate receptors with poorly understood functions. Recent evidence firmly establishes kainate receptors as postsynaptic mediators of synaptic transmission. A second, presynaptic, modulatory role of kainate receptors has also been suggested, although the mechanism(s) involved remain controversial.

Comparative Antagonism of Kainate-activated Kainate and AMPA Receptors in Hippocampal Neurons

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, 1996
AbstractNative kainate receptors expressed by cultured hippocampal cells were studied in the whole‐cell configuration of the patch‐clamp technique by using a fast perfusion system. About 80% of the neurons expressed kainate receptors independently of the time in culture (0–4 days), which coincided with the number of cells immunoreactive for a ...

Kainate induces various domain closures in AMPA and kainate receptors

Neurochemistry International, 2012
Ionotropic glutamate receptors are key players in fast excitatory synaptic transmission within the central nervous system. These receptors have been divided into three subfamilies: the N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA), 2-amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolyl)propionic acid (AMPA) and kainate receptors.

Hippocampal Kainate Receptors

2010
Glutamate is the major fast excitatory amino acid transmitter in the CNS, and exerts its action through receptors that function as ion channels such as NMDA receptors (NMDARs), AMPA receptors (AMPARs), and kainate receptors (KARs), and also through signaling cascades via metabotropic receptors.

Role of kainate receptors in nociception

Brain Research Reviews, 2002
Nociceptive nerve fibers use L-glutamate as a fast excitatory neurotransmitter and it is therefore not surprising that both, ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors play pivotal roles for transmission of nociceptive information in spinal cord.

Kainate neurotoxicity and glutamate inactivation

Neuroscience Letters, 1979
Dihydrokainate, an inhibitor of high affinity L-glutamate as an excitant of cat spinal neurones in vivo. This action of dihydrokainate was selective in that the effects of excitants taken up actively in vitro by CNS tissue (L-aspartate, D- and L-glutamate and L-homocysteate) were enhanced whereas those of other substances not taken up (acetylcholine, D-

Kainate-like neurotoxicity of folates

Nature, 1981
Kainic acid (KA) is one of the most powerful of a group of ‘excitotoxic’ analogues of the putative neurotransmitter glu-tamate (Glu) whose neurotoxicity may involve an excitatory mechanism mediated through glutamergic postsynaptic receptors1–8. The finding9 that neural membranes have specific sites where KA binds quite firmly and that Glu inhibits such
