Ketogenic Diet–Associated Remodeling of the Cortical Proteome in Rats With Genetic Absence Epilepsy

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
Proteomic profiling of the somatosensory cortex revealed that ketogenic diet was associated with remodeling of cortical protein networks in GAERS absence epilepsy, with altered proteins enriched in synaptic and mitochondrial pathways. ABSTRACT Purpose This study investigated the effects of ketogenic diet (KD) intervention on the cortical proteome in ...

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 ...

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 ...

Presynaptic Kainate Receptors Regulate Spinal Sensory Transmission

open access: yes, 2001
Small diameter dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, which include cells that transmit nociceptive information into the spinal cord, are known to express functional kainate receptors.

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.

Homeostatic regulation of KCC2 activity by the zinc receptor mZnR/GPR39 during seizures

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2015
The aim of this study was to investigate the role of the synaptic metabotropic zinc receptor mZnR/GPR39 in physiological adaptation to epileptic seizures.

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.

Cloning of a putative glutamate receptor : a low affinity kainate-binding subunit

open access: yes, 1992
Kainate, a glutamate receptor agonist, is a potent neuroexcitatory agent that produces epileptiform activity and selective neuronal degeneration. Binding studies using neuronal membrane homogenates or brain sections have identified sites having either ...
