Can Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 7 (mGluR 7) be a Novel Target for Analgesia? [PDF]
Introduction: The present study was carried out to study the role of metabotropic glutamate receptor 7 (mGluR7) using its agonist, N,N’-bis(diphenylmethyl)-1,-ethanediamine (AMN082) for nociceptive stimuli, in animal models.

A comprehensive review on adaptive plasticity and recovery mechanisms post‐acquired brain injury
This figure illustrates the dynamic process of neurogenesis following brain injury, focusing on the roles of neural stem and progenitor cells at the injury site. Key mechanisms include axonal sprouting, synaptogenesis, dendritic remodeling, and brain‐derived neurotrophic factor signaling via TrkB receptors.

Synthesis of Novel Dihydropyridothienopyrimidin-4,9-dione Derivatives
A novel molecular scaffold, dihydropyridothienopyrimidin-4,9-dione, was synthesized from benzylamine or p-methoxybenzylamine in six steps involving successive ring closure to form a fused ring system composed of dihydropyridone, thiophene and pyrimidone.

First evidence for the presence of amino acid sensing mechanisms in the fish gastrointestinal tract
This study aimed to characterize amino acid sensing systems in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of the carnivorous fish model species rainbow trout. We observed that the trout GIT expresses mRNAs encoding some amino acid receptors described in mammals ...

ABSTRACT One of the traditional treatments in Alzheimer's disease (AD) is administration of memantine, the NMDA receptor antagonist. However, the molecular mechanism of the complex memantine action and the impact on the hippocampal proteome in humans is unknown.

Changes in synaptic transmission and protein expression in the brains of adult offspring after prenatal inhibition of the kynurenine pathway [PDF]
During early brain development, N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are involved in cell migration, neuritogenesis, axon guidance and synapse formation, but the mechanisms which regulate NMDA receptor density and function remain unclear. The kynurenine

Neuronal activity results in long lasting changes in synaptic structure and function by regulating mRNA translation in dendrites. These activity dependent events yield the synthesis of proteins known to be important for synaptic modifications and diverse

Background Glutamate is a major neurotransmitter, although it causes cytotoxicity and inflammation in nonneuronal organs. This study aimed to investigate the metabolic disorders in which glutamate, associated with type 2 diabetes onset, is induced in the

β‐arrestin dependent signaling of metabotropic glutamate receptor 1
Metabotropic glutamate 1 (mGlu1) receptor is a G protein‐coupled receptor expressed mainly in the central nervous system. Classically, stimulation of mGlu1 receptors activates Gαq and increases production of the second messengers IP3 and DAG. In addition, our research has demonstrated that mGlu1 receptors activate a distinct, G protein‐independent ...
