A Thermodynamic Model for Receptor Clustering [PDF]
Intracellular signaling often arises from ligand-induced oligomerization of cell surface receptors. This oligomerization or clustering process is fundamentally a cooperative behavior between near-neighbor receptor molecules; the properties of this cooperative process clearly affects the signal transduction.

Synaptotagmin-3 drives AMPA receptor endocytosis, depression of synapse strength, and forgetting
Forgetting and receptor removal The trafficking of AMPA receptors to and from the surface of postsynaptic membranes regulates synaptic strength and underlies learning and memory. Awasthi et al.

How feedback inhibition shapes spike-timing-dependent plasticity and its implications for recent Schizophrenia models [PDF]
It has been shown that plasticity is not a fixed property but, in fact, changes depending on the location of the synapse on the neuron and/or changes of biophysical parameters.

Possible Role of Platelet GluR1 Receptors in Comorbid Depression and Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
The exact nature of the comorbidity between cardiovascular disease (CVD) and major depressive disorder (MDD) is poorly understood. The proposed mechanisms include various biochemical and molecular pathways as well as health behaviors such as physical ...

Activity-dependent modifications of excitatory synapses contribute to synaptic maturation and plasticity, and are critical for learning and memory. Consequently, impairments in synapse formation or synaptic transmission are thought to be responsible for ...

Abstract The Ankyrin 2 (ANK2) gene encodes the ankyrin‐B protein (ANKB), which is involved in the organization and stability of membrane ion channels, transporters, and receptors in cardiomyocytes and neurons. Variants in ANK2 genes are initially reported in long QT syndrome and autism.

Background: N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propinoic acid (AMPA) receptors bound to postsynaptic density-95 (PSD-95) and α isoform of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (αCaMKII) is fundamentally ...

A neuroeconomic theory of bidirectional synaptic plasticity and addiction [PDF]
Neuronal mechanisms underlying addiction have been attracting attention in neurobiology, economics, neuropsychiatry, and neuroeconomics. This paper proposes a possible link between economic theory of addiction (Becker and Murphy, 1988) and neurobiological theory of bidirectional synaptic plasticity (Bienenstock, Cooper, Munro, 1982) based on recent ...

Hypothalamic excitatory amino acid receptors mediate stress-induced tachycardia in rats [PDF]
The role of hypothalamic excitatory amino acid (EAA) receptors in mediating the cardiovascular response to stress was examined using conscious chronically instrumented rats.

Cytotoxicity of 19 Pesticides in Rainbow Trout Gill, Liver, and Intestinal Cell Lines
Abstract The rainbow trout gill cell line (RTgill‐W1), via test guideline 249 of the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development, has been established as a promising New Approach Methodology, although to advance confidence in the method more case studies are needed that: 1) expand our understanding of applicability domains (chemicals with ...
