Ionotropic receptors at hippocampal mossy fibres: roles in axonal excitability, synaptic transmission and plasticity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013
Dentate granule cells process information from the enthorinal cortex en route to the hippocampus proper. These neurons have a very negative resting membrane potential and are relatively silent in the slice preparation.

Structure and gating of kainate receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
Ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) are crucial for fast excitatory neurotransmission in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS). Kainate receptors (KARs), a subclass of iGluRs, are tetrameric, ligand-gated ion channels that play key modulatory roles at both pre- and post-synaptic sites within neuronal circuits and in the regulation of synaptic ...

Antagonism of ionotropic glutamate receptors attenuates chemical ischemia-induced injury in rat primary cultured myenteric ganglia.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Alterations of the enteric glutamatergic transmission may underlay changes in the function of myenteric neurons following intestinal ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) contributing to impairment of gastrointestinal motility occurring in these pathological ...

Cortical neurones exhibiting kainate-activated Co2+uptake are selectively vulnerable to AMPA/kainate receptor-mediated toxicity

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 1994
Kainate-activated Co2+uptake, a histochemical method that identifies cells bearing Ca2+-permeable AMPA/kainate receptors, labels approximately 15% of murine cortical neurones in cell culture.

Kainate receptors in epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yesWiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Membrane Transport and Signaling, 2013
AbstractKainate receptors (KARs) belong to the glutamatergic receptor family and they are assembled from various combinations of GluK1–GluK5 subunits. In the central nervous system (CNS), these receptors are involved in fundamental neuronal operation‐like synaptic transmission.

Differential suppression of seizures via Y2 and Y5 neuropeptide Y receptors

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2005
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) prominently inhibits epileptic seizures in different animal models. The NPY receptors mediating this effect remain controversial partially due to lack of highly selective agonists and antagonists.
