Dopamine-D1 and δ-opioid receptors co-exist in rat striatal neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Cocaine’s enhancement of dopaminergic neurotransmission in the mesolimbic pathway plays a critical role in the initial reinforcing properties of this drug. However, other neurotransmitter systems are also integral to the addiction process.

GPCRs in CAR‐T Cell Immunotherapy: Expanding the Target Landscape and Enhancing Therapeutic Efficacy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy faces dual challenges of target scarcity and an immunosuppressive microenvironment in solid tumors. This review highlights how G protein‐coupled receptors can serve as both novel targets to expand the therapeutic scope and functional modules to enhance CAR‐T cell efficacy.

Field effects in the CNS play functional roles

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2010
An endogenous electrical field effect, i.e. ephaptic transmission, occurs when an electric field associated with activity occurring in one neuron polarizes the membrane of another neuron.

Locomotor hyperactivity in 14-3-3Zeta KO mice is associated with dopamine transporter dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Dopamine (DA) neurotransmission requires a complex series of enzymatic reactions that are tightly linked to catecholamine exocytosis and receptor interactions on pre- and postsynaptic neurons.

A Non‐Mitophagy Activity of BNIP3L/NIX in Amygdala Glutamatergic Neurons is Essential for Contextual Fear Memory Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Contextual fear conditioning induces BNIP3L‐dependent mitochondrial fission in glutamatergic neurons of the BLA, independently of mitophagy. Loss of BNIP3L elevates Drp1Ser637 phosphorylation, thereby suppressing mitochondrial fission, compromising ATP production, and attenuating excitatory synaptic transmission.

The Nucleus of the Solitary Tract and the coordination of respiratory and sympathetic activities

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2014
It is well known that breathing introduces rhythmical oscillations in the heart rate and arterial pressure levels. Sympathetic oscillations coupled to the respiratory activity have been suggested as an important homeostatic mechanism optimizing tissue ...

Glutamatergic Neurotransmission in Alcoholism

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 1998
Substance abuse and dependence is the most common psychiatric problem. Alcohol is the most commonly abused substance and most people who abuse other substance(s) abuse alcohol at the same time ...

Inhibition of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier protects from excitotoxic neuronal death. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Glutamate is the dominant excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, but under conditions of metabolic stress it can accumulate to excitotoxic levels.

Enzyme‐Inspired Hydrogen‐Bonded Organic Frameworks for Synergistic Capture, Detection, and Degradation of Nerve Agent Simulants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
FDU‐HOF‐5, an enzyme‐inspired hydrogen‐bonded framework, enables targeted capture, real‐time visual alert, and detoxification of nerve agent simulants through biomimetic sites and multivalent interactions. Integrable into protective gear, it pioneers on‐site threat monitoring strategies for persistent neurotoxic hazards, advancing smart, responsive ...
