The G protein-coupled receptor heterodimer network (GPCR-HetNet) and its hub components [PDF]

, 2014
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) oligomerization has emerged as a vital characteristic of receptor structure. Substantial experimental evidence supports the existence of GPCR-GPCR interactions in a coordinated and cooperative manner.

Detection in Molecular Communications with Ligand Receptors under Molecular Interference [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Molecular Communications (MC) is a bio-inspired communication technique that uses molecules to transfer information among bio-nano devices. In this paper, we focus on the detection problem for biological MC receivers employing ligand receptors to infer the transmitted messages encoded into the concentration of molecules, i.e., ligands.

Fathoming the kynurenine pathway in migraine: why understanding the enzymatic cascades is still critically important [PDF]

, 2015
Kynurenine pathway, the quantitatively main branch of tryptophan metabolism, has been long been considered a source of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, although several of its products, the so-called kynurenines, are endowed with the capacity to ...

Pharmacological And Genetic Reversal Of Age-Dependent Cognitive Deficits Attributable To Decreased Presenilin Function [PDF]

, 2010
Alzheimer\u27s disease (AD) is the leading cause of cognitive loss and neurodegeneration in the developed world. Although its genetic and environmental causes are not generally known, familial forms of the disease (FAD) are attributable to mutations in a

Metabotropic actions of kainate receptors in the CNS [PDF]

Journal of Neurochemistry, 2007
AbstractKainate receptors (KARs), together with NMDA and α‐amino‐3‐hydroxy‐5‐methylisoxazole‐4‐propionate receptors (AMPA), are typically described as ionotropic glutamate receptors. Although ionotropic functions for KARs are beginning to be characterized in multiple brain regions, both, in the pre‐ and post‐synaptic compartments of the synapse, there ...

Molecular‐Informed Network Analysis Unveils Fatigue‐Related Functional Connectivity in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fatigue in Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent and debilitating non‐motor symptom. Despite its significant impact on quality of life, the underlying neurochemical and network‐based mechanisms remain poorly understood. Objectives This observational study applied a multimodal imaging approach to explore potential links between the

Group III metabotropic glutamate receptors gate long-term potentiation and synaptic tagging/capture in rat hippocampal area CA2

eLife, 2020
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) play an important role in synaptic plasticity and memory and are largely classified based on amino acid sequence homology and pharmacological properties.

Activation of mGlu3 receptors stimulates the production of GDNF in striatal neurons. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
Metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors have been considered potential targets for the therapy of experimental parkinsonism. One hypothetical advantage associated with the use of mGlu receptor ligands is the lack of the adverse effects typically induced ...

Robust gamma oscillations in networks of inhibitory Hippocampal interneurons [PDF]

arXiv, 1999
Recent experiments suggest that inhibitory networks of interneurons can synchronize the neuronal discharge in in vitro hippocampal slices. Subsequent theoretical work has shown that strong synchronization by mutual inhibition is only moderately robust against neuronal heterogeneities in the current drive, provided by activation of metabotropic ...
