Glutamate Receptor Signaling in Retina Müller Cells: Plausible Role in Neurodegeneration
The retinal network relies on glutamate, the primary excitatory neurotransmitter involved in the visual cycle. Glutamate transactions are carried out by an array of distinct receptors and transporters distributed across both pre- and post-synaptic ...

Plasticity of GABA(B) receptor-mediated heterosynaptic interactions at mossy fibers after status epilepticus [PDF]
Several neurotransmitters, including GABA acting at presynaptic GABAB receptors, modulate glutamate release at synapses between hippocampal mossy fibers and CA3 pyramidal neurons.

Abstract Background Alongside the major hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD) – amyloid beta (Aβ) plaque, tau tangles, and neurodegeneration – hippocampal synapse loss also presents as a pathological phenotype in this disorder. While there is extensive research linking synapse loss to hyperexcitability and glutamate excitotoxicity, there is a gap in ...

Abstract Background Our group has demonstrated that the subtype 3 metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGlu3R) expressed in astrocytes exerts neuroprotective functions and promotes both non‐amyloidogenic cleavage of APP and Aβ clearance. In turn, we showed that mGlu3R levels progressively decreased with age in the hippocampus of PDAPP‐J20 murine AD model ...

Buried Treasure? Overlooked and Newly Discovered Evolutionary Contributions to Human Brain Diseases
[Color figure can be viewed at www.annalsofneurology.org] Recapitulative schema of different exploratory levels of the evolutionary impact on human neurological diseases. Clinical neuroscience focuses on the mechanisms of brain function, but this approach falls short of insights into how the central nervous system (CNS) evolved, both in health and ...
