Asymmetric syntheses of analogs of kainic acid
, 2012 Kainic acid has been used for nearly 50 years as a tool in neuroscience due to its pronounced neuroexcitatory properties. However, the significant price increase of kainic acid resulting from the disruption in the supply from its natural source, the alga

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018 Dibutyryl cyclic adenosine monophosphate (dBcAMP), a cell-permeable synthetic analog of cAMP, has been shown to induce astrogliosis in culture. However, the exact mechanism underlying how dBcAMP exerts its function in situ is not clear.

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Memory problems are comorbid with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Animal models of TLE reveal impairments in spatial firing fields of hippocampal place cells, providing a potential neural substrate for memory problems. Each subfield of the hippocampus carries out unique aspects of spatial memory, yet little is known about how ...

Kainic acid in the seaweed Palmaria palmata (Dulse) [PDF]
, 2018 Twenty samples of the seaweed Palmaria palmata (dulse) purchased mainly from commercial internet shops on the European market were analysed by a liquid chromatograph coupled with a tandem mass spectrometer (LC-MS/MS) method for the content of kainic acid,

WONOEP XVII appraisal: The role of the extracellular matrix in epilepsy
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of proteoglycans and glycoproteins that regulate the external environment surrounding neurons, glia, and the vascular system. The ECM is vital for maintaining the structure and function of the brain and also acts as a reservoir for various signaling molecules and neurotransmitters, modulating synaptic

Effect of epileptogenesis on hypercapnic cardioventilatory response in kainic acid rats
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Cardioventilatory failure is the leading mechanism proposed to underlie sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), which occurs predominantly at night in patients with generalized tonic–clonic seizures. Interictal hypercapnic cardioventilatory responses are suggested to be involved, as they are ablated in chronically epileptic ...

Kainic acid activates oxytocinergic neurons through non-NMDA glutamate receptors
, 2006 The present study assessed if kainic acid activates oxytocinergic neurons and this activation is blocked by 6- cyano- 7- nitroquinoxaline- 2,3- dione ( CNQX).

Epilepsia, EarlyView.On day 0 adult male and female rats were injected with Stable Substance P‐Saporin (SSP‐SAP) at 4 unilateral sites along the longitudinal axis of the dentate gyrus. Rats exhibited spontaneous electrographic and behavioral reactive seizures between days 4‐6. There was a progressive loss of CA1 and CA3 neurons and a progressive increase in astrocytes over

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

Studies towards syntheses of kainic acid
, 2012 Kainoid amino acids are a family of none proteinogenic pyrrolidine dicarboxylic acids with similar structures and can be viewed as conformationally restricted analogues of the mammalian neurotransmitter L-glutamic acid.
