Roles of N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors (NMDARs) in Epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders characterized by recurrent seizures. The mechanism of epilepsy remains unclear and previous studies suggest that N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) play an important role in abnormal ...

Long-term potentiation and the role of N -methyl- d -aspartate receptors

open access: yesBrain Research, 2015
N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are known for their role in the induction of long-term potentiation (LTP). Here we start by reviewing the early evidence for their role in LTP at CA1 synapses in the hippocampus.

Protein quality control of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are glutamate-gated cation channels that mediate excitatory neurotransmission and are critical for synaptic development and plasticity in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS). Functional NMDARs typically form

The GluN3 subunit regulates ion selectivity within native N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors [PDF]

open access: yesIBRO Reports, 2020
Glutamatergic N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are heterotetrameric proteins whose subunits are derived from three gene families, GRIN1 (codes for GluN1), GRIN2 (GluN2) and GRIN3 (GluN3).

N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors in Hematopoietic Cells: What Have We Learned? [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) provides a pathway for glutamate-mediated inter-cellular communication, best known for its role in the brain but with multiple examples of functionality in non-neuronal cells.

Pharmacology of triheteromeric N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors. [PDF]

open access: yesNeurosci Lett, 2016
The N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors (NMDARs) are heteromeric cation channels involved in learning, memory, and synaptic plasticity, and their dysregulation leads to various neurodegenerative disorders. Recent evidence has shown that apart from the GluN1/GluN2A and GluN1/GluN2B diheteromeric ion channels, the NMDAR also exists as a GluN1/GluN2A/GluN2B ...

Advances and Barriers in Understanding Presynaptic N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors in Spinal Pain Processing [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
For decades, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors have been known to play a critical role in the modulation of both acute and chronic pain. Of particular interest are NMDA receptors expressed in the superficial dorsal horn (SDH) of the spinal cord ...

Intracerebroventricular Injection of L-Pipecolic Acid Exerts Hypnotic Effects Without Activating NMDA Receptors in Neonatal Chicks under Social Isolation-induced Stress

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2020
L-Pipecolic acid is an intermediate of L-lysine catabolism. Its central injection exerted a hypnotic effect on the brain, which was partially mediated by the activation of γ-aminobutyric acid-A and γ-aminobutyric acid-B receptors. L-Proline has also been

Case report: Anti N-methyl-D-aspartate autoimmune encephalitis following a mildly symptomatic COVID-19 infection in an adolescent male

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2023
BackgroundAntibodies against N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors are the most commonly identified cause of autoimmune encephalitis. While predominantly associated with malignancies, cases of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor autoimmune encephalitis have been

A diagnostic dilemma: Laparoscopic approach in treating ovarian teratoma-associated anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis

open access: yesPhilippine Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2021
A 24-year-old nulligravida who presented with seizures and behavioral changes with prodrome of flu-like symptoms was initially treated as a case of viral encephalitis.
