A comprehensive review on adaptive plasticity and recovery mechanisms post‐acquired brain injury

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
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.

Blunted Cystine–Glutamate Antiporter Function in the Nucleus Accumbens Promotes Cocaine-induced Drug Seeking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Repeated cocaine alters glutamate neurotransmission, in part, by reducing cystine–glutamate exchange via system xc−, which maintains glutamate levels and receptor stimulation in the extrasynaptic compartment.

The prion protein regulates glutamate-mediated Ca2+ entry and mitochondrial Ca2+ accumulation in neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The cellular prion protein (PrPC) whose conformational misfolding leads to the production of deadly prions, has a still-unclarified cellular function despite decades of intensive research.

Memantine Administration Enhances Glutamatergic and GABAergic Pathways in the Human Hippocampus of Alzheimer's Disease Patients

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
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.

Role of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors in Neurological Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019
Glutamate is a fundamental excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS), playing key roles in memory, neuronal development, and synaptic plasticity.

Exploring the pathophysiology underlying clozapine‐induced enhancement of glutamatergic transmission through L‐glutamate and D‐serine release associated with pannexin1 hemichannels

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and purpose Clozapine, an approved antipsychotic for treatment‐resistant schizophrenia (TRS), enhances glutamatergic transmission by increasing exocytosis and non‐exocytosis glutamate release; however, its full action remained to be clarified.

Changes in synaptic transmission and protein expression in the brains of adult offspring after prenatal inhibition of the kynurenine pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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

Performance of cryptogenic new onset refractory status epilepticus score in a Brazilian cohort after testing for antineuronal antibodies with tissue‐based and cell‐based assays

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to describe a case series of Brazilian new onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) patients and evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of a clinical score to predict cryptogenic etiology (c‐NORSE score) after autoimmune encephalitis (AE) testing.

A PI3K-mediated negative feedback regulates Drosophila motor neuron excitability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Negative feedback can act as a homeostatic mechanism to maintain neuronal activity at a particular specified value. At the Drosophila neuromuscular junction, a mutation in the type II metabotropic glutamate receptor gene (mGluRA) increased motor neuron ...

Clioquinol as a new therapy in epilepsy: From preclinical evidence to a proof‐of‐concept clinical study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects >25 million people worldwide and is often associated with neuroinflammation. Increasing evidence links deficiency or malfunctioning of the enzyme phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), which converts 3‐phosphoglycerate to generate serine and the neurotransmitter glycine, with (drug‐resistant ...
