The synaptic activation of kainate receptors

open access: yes, 1997
International audienceL-Glutamate, the principal excitatory neurotransmitter in the vertebrate central nervous system, acts on three classes of ionotropic glutamate receptors, named after the agonists AMPA, NMDA and kainate.

AMPA Receptor-Mediated Ca2+ Transients in Mouse Olfactory Ensheathing Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Ca2+ signaling in glial cells is primarily triggered by metabotropic pathways and the subsequent Ca2+ release from internal Ca2+ stores. However, there is upcoming evidence that various ion channels might also initiate Ca2+ rises in glial cells by Ca2 ...

Distinct electrophysiology and dopaminergic modulation of medium spiny neurons across divisions of the tail striatum and the dorsolateral striatum

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 10, Page 4827-4851, 1 October 2026.
Abstract The striatum is a brain region within the basal ganglia that plays a crucial role in generating behaviour and mediating perception. The tail striatum (TS) is a poorly understood striatal domain with predominantly sensory functions. Recent evidence supports that abnormal TS dopamine transmission in dopaminergic disease contributes to sensory ...

Kainate promotes alterations in neuronal RNA splicing machinery

open access: yes, 2011
Kainate, a glutamate analogue, activates kainate and AMPA receptors inducing strong synaptic activation. Systemic kainate application to rodents results in seizures, neurodegeneration, and neuronal remodeling in the brain.

Neonatal hypoxic preconditioning involves vascular endothelial growth factor

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2007
We studied hypoxic preconditioning (HxP) in the murine developing brain, focusing on the role for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Newborn mice were used as follows: (1) HxP (or normoxia) then intracerebral (i.c.) NMDA or AMPA-kainate agonist; (

Relaxin‐2: Shaping the Proteomic Landscape of Skeletal Muscle Physiology, Glucose Trafficking, and Mitochondrial Function in Rat

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 18, 30 September 2026.
Cardioprotective hormone relaxin‐2 showed relevant effects on rat skeletal muscle by altering proteins linked to muscle function, regeneration, differentiation, mitochondrial function, glucose metabolism, and structural integrity and organization. Specifically, relaxin‐2 reduced the expression of 95 proteins, increased 32, and elicited unique proteins ...

Hippocampal neurons exhibit cyclothiazide-sensitive rapidly desensitizing responses to kainate

open access: yes, 1993
In whole-cell recordings from mammalian CNS neurons, AMPA-preferring glutamate receptors exhibit strong desensitization in response to AMPA, glutamate, and quisqualate, but not to kainate or domoate.

Kainate-induced apoptosis correlates with c-Jun activation in cultured cerebellar granule cells.

open access: yes, 1998
We have investigated the involvement of c-Jun in cell death induced by exposure of primary cultures of murine cerebellar granule cells to the glutamate receptor agonist kainate (KA) and evaluated its possible use as a marker for apoptosis.

(R)-[11C]Verapamil PET studies to assess changes in P-glycoprotein expression and functionality in rat blood-brain barrier after exposure to kainate-induced status epilepticus

open access: yesBMC Medical Imaging, 2011
Background Increased functionality of efflux transporters at the blood-brain barrier may contribute to decreased drug concentrations at the target site in CNS diseases like epilepsy.

Kainate-induced apoptosis in cultured murine cerebellar granule cells elevates expression of the cell cycle gene cyclin D1

open access: yes, 1998
Recent evidence suggests that neuronal apoptosis is the consequence of an inappropriate reentry into the cell cycle. Expression of the cell cycle gene cyclin D1, a G1-phase cell cycle regulator, was examined in primary cultures of murine cerebellar ...
