Metabotropic Receptors for Glutamate and GABA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest superfamily of transmembrane proteins and due to their ubiquitous expression and vast array of functions they present attractive targets for the treatment of a wide number of diseases and disorders.

Presbycusis: Pathology, Signal Pathways, and Therapeutic Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In ARHL, the stria vascularis, acting as a cochlear battery, gradually loses its ability to maintain the endocochlear potential, leading to impaired hair cell function and progressive hearing loss. Single‐cell sequencing reveals age‐related cellular changes in the cochlea, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of aging and potential ...

Neuropharmacological targets for drug action in vestibular sensory pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The use of pharmacological agents is often the preferred approach to the management of vestibular dysfunction. In the vestibular sensory pathways, the sensory neuroepithelia are thought to be influenced by a diverse number of neuroactive substances that ...

GLS1‐Mediated Redundancy in Glutamate Accelerates Arterial Calcification via Activating NMDAR/Ca2+/β‐Catenin Pathway

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
GLS1 is a novel contributor to arterial calcification. GLS1‐catalyzed glutamate exerts the promoting effects on osteogenic reprogramming in arteries. NMDAR, a glutamate receptor, is also activated and overexpressed during arterial calcification.

Regulated Release of BDNF by Cortical Oligodendrocytes is Mediated Through Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors and the PLC Pathway

open access: yesASN Neuro, 2009
A number of studies suggest that OLGs (oligodendrocytes), the myelinating cells of the central nervous system, are also a source of trophic molecules, such as neurotrophins that may influence survival of proximate neurons.

Increased accuracy of ligand sensing by receptor diffusion on cell surface [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E 82, 041902 (2010), 2010
The physical limit with which a cell senses external ligand concentration corresponds to the perfect absorber, where all ligand particles are absorbed and overcounting of same ligand particles does not occur. Here we analyze how the lateral diffusion of receptors on the cell membrane affects the accuracy of sensing ligand concentration.

Unraveling Neurodevelopment: Synergistic Effects of Intrinsic Genetic Programs and Extrinsic Environmental Cues

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Overview of the regulation of intrinsic and extrinsic signals during neurodevelopment. Intrinsic genetic signals from NSCs, in conjunction with cues from microglia and blood vessels, collaboratively regulate the proliferation of NSCs, their fate determination, synaptogenesis, synaptic pruning, neuronal survival, and death, as well as communication ...

NMDA Receptor-Dependent Metaplasticity by High-Frequency Magnetic Stimulation

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2014
High-frequency magnetic stimulation (HFMS) can elicit N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-dependent long-term potentiation (LTP) at Schaffer collateral-CA1 pyramidal cell synapses.

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.
