Expression of the ionotropic glutamate receptors on neuronostatin neurons in the periventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus

open access: yesFolia Morphologica, 2022
BACKGROUND: Neuronostatin, a newly identified peptide, is accepted as an anorexigenic peptide since it suppresses food intake when given intracerebroventricularly.

Simvastatin, edaravone and dexamethasone protect against kainate-induced brain endothelial cell damage

open access: yesFluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2020
Background Excitotoxicity is a central pathological pathway in many neurological diseases with blood–brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction. Kainate, an exogenous excitotoxin, induces epilepsy and BBB damage in animal models, but the direct effect of kainate on

7-nitroindazole, a selective neuronal nitric oxide synthase inhibitore in vivo, prevents kainate-induced intrahippocampal neurotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2005
We investigated the effects of 7-nitroindazole (7-NI), a selective neuronal nitric oxide synthase inhibitor in vivo, on nitrite concentration after kainic acid injection unilaterally into the CA3 region of the rat hippocampus. The accumulation of nitrite,

Reduced Interhemispheric Coherence after Cerebellar Vermis Output Perturbation

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2020
Motor coordination and motor learning are well-known roles of the cerebellum. Recent evidence also supports the contribution of the cerebellum to the oscillatory activity of brain networks involved in a wide range of disorders.

Role of brain glycogen in the response to hypoxia and in susceptibility to epilepsy

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Although glycogen is the only carbohydrate reserve of the brain, its overall contribution to brain functions remains unclear. It has been proposed that glycogen participates in the preservation of such functions during hypoxia.

Mediation of Sinusoidal Network Oscillations in the Locus Coeruleus of Newborn Rat Slices by Pharmacologically Distinct AMPA and KA Receptors

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
Brain control by locus coeruleus (LC) neurons involves afferent glutamate (Glu) inputs. In newborns, LC Glu receptors and responses may be sparse due to immaturity of the brain circuits providing such input.

Chimeric glutamate receptor subunits reveal the transmembrane domain is sufficient for NMDA receptor pore properties but some positive allosteric modulators require additional domains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
NMDA receptors are ligand-gated ion channels that underlie transmission at excitatory synapses and play an important role in regulating synaptic strength and stability.

Synaptic Targeting of Kainate Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesCerebral Cortex, 2014
When native and recombinant kainate receptors (KARs) are compared, there is a mismatch in several of their functional properties. While both generate currents, synaptic responses mediated by KARs have rarely observed in cultured hippocampal neurons.

Animal Models of Drug-Resistant Epilepsy as Tools for Deciphering the Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Pharmacoresistance and Discovering More Effective Treatments

open access: yesCells, 2023
In the last 30 years, over 20 new anti-seizure medicines (ASMs) have been introduced into the market for the treatment of epilepsy using well-established preclinical seizure and epilepsy models. Despite this success, approximately 20–30% of patients with

Seizure-induced motility of differentiated dentate granule cells is prevented by the central Reelin fragment

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
Granule cell dispersion (GCD) represents a pathological widening of the granule cell layer (GCL) in the dentate gyrus and it is frequently observed in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE).
