Reduction in Phencyclidine Induced Sensorimotor Gating Deficits in the Rat Following Increased System Xc − Activity in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Rationale: Aspects of schizophrenia, including deficits in sensorimotor gating, have been linked to glutamate dysfunction and/or oxidative stress in the prefrontal cortex. System xc −, a cystine–glutamate antiporter, is a poorly understood mechanism that

Glutamate Stimulates Local Protein Synthesis in the Axons of Rat Cortical Neurons by Activating α-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic Acid (AMPA) Receptors and Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2015
Background: Transient rise of extracellular glutamate occurs in the developing brain. Results: Glutamate stimulates axonal translation by binding to AMPA receptors and metabotropic glutamate receptors and activating Ca2+ and mTOR signaling.

Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Activation in Cerebelar Purkinje Cells as Substrate for Adaptive Timing of the Classicaly Conditioned Eye Blink Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
To understand how the cerebellum adaptively times the classically conditioned nictitating membrane response (NMR), a model of the metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) second messenger system in cerebellar Purkinje cells is constructed.

Neuro‐Cancer Interactions Shape Glioma Intratumoral Heterogeneity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review proposes a conceptual framework for understanding glioma intratumoral heterogeneity shaped by neuro‐cancer interactions: functional patterns and transcriptional states. Functional patterns manifest as three major neural‐like adaptations with spatial and potentially hierarchical relationships, including neurogliomal synapses, glioma networks,

When, where and how? Focus on neuronal calcium dysfunctions in Alzheimer's Disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Alzheimer\u2019s disease (AD), since its characterization as a precise form of dementia with its own pathological hallmarks, has captured scientists\u2019 attention because of its complexity.

Assembly and Cooperativity of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2015
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are G-protein coupled receptors that are found throughout the nervous system where they respond to the major excitatory neurotransmitter, glutamate, to modulate synaptic transmission and plasticity via a variety of effectors.

Analyses of GWAS and Sub‐Threshold Loci Lead to the Discovery of Dendrite Development and Morphology Dysfunction Underlying Schizophrenia Genetic Risk

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A cost‐effective strategy is developed analyzing sub‐threshold GWAS loci (5 × 10−8 < P ≤ 10−6), identifying 180 risk loci and 304 high‐confidence genes through combined GWAS/subGWAS analysis. This approach reveals dendrite development and morphogenesis (DDM) as a novel SCZ pathway.

Metabotropic glutamate receptors: Phosphorylation and receptor signaling

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience Research, 2007
AbstractMetabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) play important roles in neurotransmission, neuronal development, synaptic plasticity, and neurological disorders. Recent studies have revealed a sophisticated interplay between mGluRs and protein kinases: activation of mGluRs regulates the activity of a number of kinases, and direct phosphorylation of ...
