Pharmacological modulation of NMDA receptor activity and the advent of negative and positive allosteric modulators [PDF]
The NMDA receptor (NMDAR) family of l-glutamate receptors are well known to have diverse roles in CNS function as well as in various neuropathological and psychiatric conditions. Until recently, the types of agents available to pharmacologically regulate NMDAR function have been quite limited in terms of mechanism of action and subtype selectivity ...

GRIN‐related disorders are neurodevelopmental disorders caused by mutations in N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor (NMDAR) subunit genes. A large fraction of these mutations lead to a ‘gain of function’ (GoF) of the NMDAR.

Rationale and Objectives: Ethanol acts directly on the α7 Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7). Adolescent-binge alcohol exposure (ABAE) produces deleterious consequences during adulthood, and data indicate that the α7 receptor regulates these damaging ...

A novel class of negative allosteric modulators of NMDA receptor function
NMDA receptors mediate a slow Ca(2+)-permeable component of excitatory synaptic transmission, and are involved in numerous normal brain functions including learning and memory. NMDA receptor over-activation can lead to cell death and abnormal excitation in ischemia associated with stroke, traumatic brain injury, and epilepsy.

The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This
