Organic neuromorphic electronics powering intelligent sensory and edge computing systems

InfoMat, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Organic electronic materials are promising candidates for neuromorphic sensing applications, including chemical, physical, visual, and multimodal sensing, owing to their mechanical softness, biocompatibility, and intrinsic ionic–electronic coupling.

Vesicular glutamate transporter VGLUT2 expression emerges in substantia nigra dopamine neurons in mouse models of parkinsonism in the absence of neurodegeneration

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 9, Page 2123-2138, May 2026.
Abstract Background and Purpose Subsets of midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons express the vesicular glutamate transporter VGLUT2 and can release the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate. VGLUT2+ DA neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) were shown to be more resistant to neurodegeneration in animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD ...

TRP canonical 4 and/or 5 channel inhibition reduces aversion‐ and increases reward‐responding in chronically stressed mice

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 9, Page 2139-2165, May 2026.
Abstract Background and Purpose Pharmacological inhibition of TRPC4 and/or TRPC5 channels reduces Pavlovian aversion memory in stressed mice and reduces amygdala reactivity to aversion in humans with depression. The aims of this mouse study were to improve understanding of these anxiolytic processes, determine whether there are corrective effects on ...

Structural Mechanism of an Efficacy Photoswitch Targeting the β2‐adrenergic Receptor

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 65, Issue 18, 27 April 2026.
Time‐resolved structures from x‐ray free‐electron laser measurements combined with cellular assays demonstrate how the photoswitchable β‐blocker photoazolol‐1 acts as an efficacy switch of β2‐adrenergic receptor function. Light‐induced ligand repositioning shifts activity from inverse agonism toward neutral antagonism by altering local helical ...

Conformational diversity in class C GPCR positive allosteric modulation

Nature Communications
The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGlus) are class C G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) that form obligate dimers activated by the major excitatory neurotransmitter L-glutamate.

Astrocytes Control Neuronal Excitability in the Nucleus Accumbens

The Scientific World Journal, 2007
Though accumulating evidence shows that the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) mediates some of the actions of extracellular glutamate after cocaine use, the cellular events underlying this action are poorly understood.

Structural Insights into Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Activation

Nature, 2018
Metabotropic glutamate receptors are family C G-protein-coupled receptors. They form obligate dimers and possess extracellular ligand-binding Venus flytrap domains, which are linked by cysteine-rich domains to their 7-transmembrane domains. Spectroscopic

Computational Drug Design Applied to the Study of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors

Molecules, 2019
Metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors are a family of eight GPCRs that are attractive drug discovery targets to modulate glutamate action and response. Here we review the application of computational methods to the study of this family of receptors.

Glutamate Receptor Signaling in Retina Müller Cells: Plausible Role in Neurodegeneration

Receptors
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 ...
