Regulation of AMPA receptors and synaptic plasticity

open access: yes, 2008
Neuronal activity controls the strength of excitatory synapses by mechanisms that include changes in the postsynaptic responses mediated by AMPA receptors.

Relationship Between Central Sensitization and Genetic Polymorphisms—A Case–Control Study in Fibromyalgia

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pain, Volume 30, Issue 6, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Fibromyalgia is a syndrome characterised by widespread chronic pain, which is believed to be mediated by a state of central sensitisation (CS). Based on the hypothesis that CS itself could have genetic determinants, our aim was to further explore this pathway.

Multi‐Targeting Ligands as Prospective Therapeutics for Alzheimer's Disease, a Prevalent Neurodegenerative Disorder: Mechanistic Insights, Emerging Targets and Drug Discovery Campaigns

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 4, Page 1173-1229, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative condition characterized by progressive cognitive impairment, memory deterioration, and neuronal dysfunction. Its complex pathophysiology involves multiple interlinked processes, including amyloid‐β (Aβ) aggregation, tau hyperphosphorylation, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation ...

AMPA receptors in synaptic plasticity, memory function, and brain diseases [PDF]

open access: yes
Tetrameric AMPA-type ionotropic glutamate receptors are primary transducers of fast excitatory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system, and their properties and abundance at the synaptic surface are crucial determinants of synaptic efficacy ...

Comparative Cochlear–Vestibular Aging Reveals Age‐Aligned Mitochondrial Ultrastructural Burden, Mitophagy–Autophagy Remodeling, Synaptic Uncoupling, and Sensory Functional Decline

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study maps age‐aligned cochlear and vestibular decline in SAMP8 mice, linking functional impairment with synaptic vulnerability, mitochondrial ultrastructural injury, and autophagy/mitophagy–lysosome transcriptional remodeling. The findings provide an integrated framework for understanding shared inner‐ear aging trajectories.

Presynaptic AMPA receptors : more than just ion channels?

open access: yes, 2004
AMPA receptor ion channels are of paramount importance for postsynaptic excitation. Several reports demonstrate that AMPA receptors are present in the presynaptic compartment and point to a role of these receptors in the modulation of presynaptic ...

Psilocybin as a novel treatment for chronic pain

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 14, Page 3992-4005, July 2026.
Abstract Psychedelic drugs are under active consideration for clinical use and have generated significant interest for their potential as anti‐nociceptive treatments for chronic pain, and for addressing conditions like depression, frequently co‐morbid with pain.

Psychedelics, entactogens and psychoplastogens for depression and related disorders

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 14, Page 3897-3919, July 2026.
Currently, the most actively investigated rapidly acting antidepressants, anxiolytics and/or anti PTSD agents, include psychedelics e.g. psilocybin, LSD, N,N‐dimethyltryptamine, ayahuasca; non‐hallucinogenic entactogens, e.g. MDMA; psychoplastogens which rapidly promote neuroplasticity, e.g.
