mGluR5 antagonism inhibits cocaine reinforcement and relapse by elevation of extracellular glutamate in the nucleus accumbens via a CB1 receptor mechanism. [PDF]

, 2018
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) antagonism inhibits cocaine self-administration and reinstatement of drug-seeking behavior. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying this action are poorly understood.

Crossing the Blood–Brain Barrier with Molecularly Imprinted Polymeric Nanocarriers: An Emerging Frontier in Brain Disease Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Molecularly imprinted polymeric nanocarriers (nanoMIPs) offer robust, antibody‐mimetic platforms to overcome the blood‐brain barrier. The article surveys nanoMIP design and ligand‐directed surface engineering that harness receptor‐mediated transcytosis, and highlights therapeutic and diagnostic applications in neurodegeneration, brain tumors and ...

Diabetic retinopathy and the NMDA receptor [PDF]

Drug News & Perspectives, 2002
Diabetic retinopathy is a major sight-threatening disease and is a leading cause of blindness. There is an emerging body of evidence that suggests that neuronal changes are an early phenomenon in the diabetic retina and that several cell types are affected, including the ganglion cells.

Resilience to Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Mitigates Membrane Hyperexcitability Underlying Late Disease Onset in a Murine Model of SCA6

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective An enduring puzzle in many inherited neurological disorders is the late onset of symptoms despite expression of function‐impairing mutant protein early in life. We examined the basis for onset of impairment in spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6), a canonical late‐onset neurodegenerative ataxia which results from a polyglutamine expansion in ...

Up-regulation of GluN2A-containing NMDA receptor protects cultured cortical neuron cells from oxidative stress

Heliyon, 2018
Neuronal excitotoxicity induced by spreading depolarization occurs during multiple brain diseases. The subsequent extensive releasing of neuronal transmitter glutamate results in over activation of the ionic glutamate receptors and then triggers neuronal

Hydroxycarboxylic Acid Receptor 2 Mediates β‐hydroxybutyrate's Antiseizure Effect in Mice

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
A Objective The ketogenic diet, a high‐fat, low‐carbohydrate regimen, is often used to treat drug‐resistant seizures and is being studied for Alzheimer's disease and other neuropsychiatric disorders. However, its mechanism of action remains unclear. β‐hydroxybutyrate, a primary circulating ketone body produced by the ketogenic diet, may mediate its ...
