Abstract Objective Absence epilepsy is characterized by brief but frequent seizures with loss of consciousness. Existing treatments, which come with heavy side effects, are only partially effective and do not address the associated comorbidities, including cognitive and social deficits.

The Drosophila DmGluRA is required for social interaction and memory
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) have well established roles in cognition andsocial behavior in mammals. Whether or not these roles have been conserved throughoutevolution from invertebrate species is less clear.

Neuronal hyperexcitability: A key to unraveling hippocampal synaptic dysfunction in Lafora disease
Abstract Background and Objective Lafora disease (LD) is a rare progressive disorder caused by mutations in the EPM2A or EPM2B genes, characterized by the accumulation of Lafora bodies, drug‐resistant epilepsy, and cognitive decline. To investigate the early molecular mechanisms of LD, we studied electrophysiological changes in the dentate gyrus (DG ...

Our laboratory has demonstrated that 17β-estradiol (E2) enhances hippocampal memory consolidation via rapid activation of multiple intracellular signaling cascades, including the ERK/MAPK cascade (Fernandez et al., 2008; Fan et al., 2010).

Lower density of calretinin‐immunopositive neurons in the putamen of subjects with schizophrenia
Recent neuroimaging and histological studies highlight the striatum as a key area involved in SCH, but the specific impairment of neuronal subtypes in subcortical structures is not fully understood. This study is the first detailed investigation of neuroanatomical changes in the putamen in SCH, specifically examining the density of calretinin ...

Conformational diversity in class C GPCR positive allosteric modulation
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.

Nitric oxide and synaptic function [PDF]
The free radical gas nitric oxide (NO) is a recently identified neuronal messenger that carries out diverse signaling tasks in both the central and peripheral nervous systems.

Objectives Gastroesophageal reflux during anaesthesia is a common event occurring in dogs with the potential to cause oesophageal injury and aspiration pneumonia. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the effect of the novel metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 antagonist TT001 on gastroesophageal reflux during anaesthesia in dogs using two ...

Summary: Activation of postsynaptic metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) modulates neuronal excitability and synaptic plasticity, while deregulation of mGluR signaling has been implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders. Overstimulation of mGluRs is

Modulation of the GABAergic pathway for the treatment of fragile X syndrome. [PDF]
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common genetic cause of intellectual disability and the most common single-gene cause of autism. It is caused by mutations on the fragile X mental retardation gene (FMR1) and lack of fragile X mental retardation ...
