Enhanced synaptic long-term potentiation in the anterior cingulate cortex of adult wild mice as compared with that in laboratory mice

Molecular Brain, 2009
Activation of N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor is important for learning, memory and persistent pain. Genetic enhancement of NMDA receptor function by overexpressing NR2B subunit significantly enhances hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP ...

Ethanol enhances neurosteroidogenesis in hippocampal pyramidal neurons by paradoxical NMDA receptor activation [PDF]

, 2011
Using an antibody against 5α-reduced neurosteroids, predominantly allopregnanolone, we found that immunostaining in the CA1 region of rat hippocampal slices was confined to pyramidal neurons.

Age-Dependent, Subunit Specific Action of Hydrogen Sulfide on GluN1/2A and GluN1/2B NMDA Receptors

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenously produced neuroactive gas implicated in many key processes in the peripheral and central nervous system. Whereas the neuroprotective role of H2S has been shown in adult brain, the action of this messenger in ...

Complex alteration of NMDA receptors in transgenic Huntington's disease mouse brain: analysis of mRNA and protein expression, plasma membrane association, interacting proteins, and phosphorylation

Neurobiology of Disease, 2003
We analyzed NMDA receptor subunit mRNAs, proteins, and anchoring proteins in mice transgenic for exon 1 of the HD gene. R6/2 mice had decreased levels of mRNAs encoding ε1 and ε2 NMDA receptor subunits (mouse orthologs of rat NR2A and NR2B subunits), but

Cryopreserved Human Otic Neuronal Spheroids Self‐assemble for Functional Connectivity Analysis and Long‐term Ototoxicity Evaluation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study establishes a robust and reproducible protocol for generating human otic neuronal spheroids (hONS) from cryopreserved hPSC‐derived pre‐placodal ectoderm cells. These hONS further differentiate into functional SGN‐like neurons, which extend neurite projections toward both murine hair cells and human cortical organoids, thereby forming ...
