Thermal Stress‐Induced Alterations to Oxylipin Signal Receptors in the Cnidarian–Dinoflagellate Symbiosis

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2026.
Thermal stress significantly alters signalling receptor abundance in the model cnidarian Exaiptasia diaphana. TRPA1, EP2 and GRIK2 increased under elevated temperatures, while EP4 remained unchanged, indicating differential thermal modulation of oxylipin‐ and glutamate‐linked pathways.

Exploring the Neural Substrates of Number Sense: A Perspective on Genetics, Behaviour and Neural Circuity

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 8, April 2026.
Numerical cognition arises from conserved mechanisms linking genes, neural circuits and behaviour. Using zebrafish as a tractable model, behavioural assays, whole‐brain imaging and genetic analyses can be integrated to identify neural and molecular bases of quantity discrimination. This framework provides a platform for studying numerical cognition and

Ivermectin inhibits AMPA receptor-mediated excitotoxicity in cultured motor neurons and extends the life span of a transgenic mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2007
α-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) receptor-mediated excitotoxicity contributes to the selective motor neuron death in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Pharmacological manipulation of the immediate effects of spinal trauma in neonatal rats reveals a crucial role for TRPV4 receptors

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 7, Page 3077-3093, 1 April 2026.
Abstract figure legend A, schematic illustration of the ventral aspect of an ex vivo preparation of the entire CNS from a neonatal rat subjected to a calibrated thoracic impact. The trauma induced a large depolarising injury potential (DIP, black trace) recorded from the L5 ventral root (VRrL5), which was markedly reduced by transient receptor ...

Electrophysiological studies of Nephila clavata venom and toxin influence on hippocampal neuronal membranes after pretreatment with Aspergillus oryzae proteases

open access: yesБіологічні студії, 2020
Background. The use of Arthropodae toxins for electrophysiological experiments is very important, but experimental data in this regard are scarce. The aim of this study was to obtain experimental data about the influence of Nephila clavata spider venom ...

Unbalanced dendritic inhibition of CA1 neurons drives spatial-memory deficits in the Ts2Cje Down syndrome model

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Exaggerated synaptic inhibition is hypothesised to be a main cause of cognitive deficits in Down syndrome models. The authors identify triplication of the kainate receptor encoding gene Grik1 as the cause of memory deficits due to a reorganization of ...

Decrease in tobacco consumption after treatment with topiramate and aripiprazole: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2008
Introduction A large part of research into drug addiction focuses on mesolimbic dopamine circuitry; however, both alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid and/or kainate and dopamine D2 receptors can play a role in maintaining the ...

GluK2-mediated excitability within the superficial layers of the entorhinal cortex.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Recent analysis of genetically modified mice deficient in different kainate receptor (KAR) subunits have strongly pointed to a role of the GluK2 subunit, mediating the vulnerability of the brain towards seizures.
