Selective disruption of stimulus-reward learning in glutamate receptor gria 1 knockout mice. [PDF]
, 2003 Glutamatergic neurotransmission via AMPA receptors has been an important focus of studies investigating neuronal plasticity. AMPA receptor glutamate receptor 1 (GluR1) subunits play a critical role in long-term potentiation (LTP).

SARM1 is essential for NMDA receptor-dependent endocytosis of AMPA receptors in hippocampal neurons
Neuroscience ResearchLong-term depression (LTD) is a form of synaptic plasticity thought to be the cellular basis of experience-dependent learning and memory. LTD is caused by an activity-dependent decrease in cell surface α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid

PKA drives an increase in AMPA receptor unitary conductance during LTP in the hippocampus
Nature Communications, 2021 Long-term potentiation at hippocampal CA1 synapses can be due to increasing the number and/or single-channel conductance of AMPA receptors. The authors show that PKA and CaMKII are necessary and together sufficient to increase single channel conductance,

Modulating Excitatory Synaptic Neurotransmission: Potential Treatment for Neurological Disease?
Neurobiology of Disease, 1998 Excitatory neurotransmission at many CNS synapses depends upon AMPA-type glutamate receptors. Derangements in AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission may be a contributing factor in neurological and neurodegenerative diseases and could be a target ...

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Neuronal pentraxin 2 (NPTX2) is a synaptic protein involved in synaptic plasticity and regulation of neuronal excitability. Lower baseline cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) NPTX2 levels have been shown to be associated with an earlier onset of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a pre‐dementia syndrome, even after CSF Alzheimer's Disease (AD)

AMPA Receptor Phosphorylation and Synaptic Colocalization on Motor Neurons Drive Maladaptive Plasticity below Complete Spinal Cord Injury. [PDF]
, 2015 Clinical spinal cord injury (SCI) is accompanied by comorbid peripheral injury in 47% of patients. Human and animal modeling data have shown that painful peripheral injuries undermine long-term recovery of locomotion through unknown mechanisms ...

Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of Early‐Onset Versus Late‐Onset LGI1‐Antibody Encephalitis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Leucine‐rich glioma‐inactivated 1 antibody (LGI1‐Ab) encephalitis predominantly affected older individuals, but has also been reported in younger patients. However, the demographic, clinical, and prognostic characteristics of early‐onset LGI1‐Ab encephalitis have yet to be systematically elucidated. This study aims to systematically

Regulation of AMPA receptors in spinal nociception
Molecular Pain, 2010 The functional properties of α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methy-4-isoxazole propionate (AMPA) receptors in different brain regions, such as hippocampus and cerebellum, have been well studied in vitro and in vivo. The AMPA receptors present a unique characteristic

Food-induced behavioral sensitization, its cross-sensitization to cocaine and morphine, pharmacological blockade, and effect on food intake [PDF]
, 2006 Repeated administration of abused drugs sensitizes their stimulant effects and results in a drug-paired environment eliciting conditioned activity. We tested whether food induces similar effects.

Insights Into the Antigenic Repertoire of Unclassified Synaptic Antibodies
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective We sought to characterize the sixth most common finding in our neuroimmunological laboratory practice (tissue assay‐observed unclassified neural antibodies [UNAs]), combining protein microarray and phage immunoprecipitation sequencing (PhIP‐Seq). Methods Patient specimens (258; 133 serums; 125 CSF) meeting UNA criteria were profiled;
