RNA editing regulates insect gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor function and insecticide sensitivity [PDF]

, 2008
A-to-I pre-mRNA editing by adenosine deaminase enzymes has been reported to enhance protein diversity in the nervous system. In Drosophila, the resistance to dieldrin (RDL) gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor subunit displays an editing site (R122 ...

NSAIDS AS MODULATORS OF CATION CHANNELS: FENAMATES REPURPOSING IN CHANNELOPATHIES

ChemMedChem, Accepted Article.
Cationic ion channels are transmembrane proteins that regulate the flux of cations (potassium, sodium, and calcium) across cell membrane, playing a pivotal role in many cellular functions. Disruptions of their activity can lead to the so‐called genetic or acquired channelopathies, a heterogeneous group of diseases that affect multiple human systems ...

Neurally Released GABA Acts via GABAC Receptors to Modulate Ca2+ Transients Evoked by Trains of Synaptic Inputs, but Not Responses Evoked by Single Stimuli, in Myenteric Neurons of Mouse Ileum

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
γ-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) and its receptors, GABAA,B,C, are expressed in several locations along the gastrointestinal tract. Nevertheless, a role for GABA in enteric synaptic transmission remains elusive.

Wetlands as environments of early human occupation: A new classification for freshwater palaeowetlands

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A new classification for inland freshwater palaeowetlands to be used in the field or core laboratory by sedimentologists, providing examples from the Guadix Basin (southern Spain). Abstract Present wetlands have proven to be delicate, biodiverse ecosystems, that are natural sinks for CO2 and act as good indicators for climate changes.

Fast detection of extrasynaptic GABA with a whole-cell sniffer

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
Gamma-amino-butyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory transmitter of the brain. It operates by binding to specific receptors located both inside and outside synapses.

Synthesis of Substituted Imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines, Imidazo[1,2‐a]pyrazines and Imidazo[1,2‐b]pyridazines by Multicomponent Reactions Using Green Solvents

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
In an environmentally friendly process for synthesizing heterocyclic molecules of therapeutic interest, imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridine, imidazo[1,2‐a]pyrazine and imidazo[1,2‐b]pyridazine core structures are obtained by a multicomponent Groebke–Blackburn–Bienaymé reaction using bio‐based recyclable solvents.

Seminars in epileptology: How to diagnose status epilepticus in adults and children

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) can be regarded as the most severe expression of seizure activity characterized by a low probability of spontaneous cessation and mechanisms leading to metabolic and inflammatory derangements with increased risk of brain damage, alterations of neural networks, and potentially life‐threatening systemic complications ...

Status non‐epilepticus

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Status non‐epilepticus is characterized by recurrent or prolonged psychogenic non‐epileptic seizures (PNES), which are often mistaken for status epilepticus (SE). This study focuses on the misdiagnosis of convulsive SE in patients whose seizures were of psychogenic origin.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Chronic-moderate ethanol exposure of L(tk-) cells expressing ? 4? 3? GABAA receptors reduces potency of allopregnanolone potentiation of GABA-evoked inward currents: Possible role of PKC [PDF]

, 2012
Aim: To investigate the effect of chronic-moderate ethanol (CME) treatment upon direct activation and allosteric modulation of GABAA receptors, and to assess the sensitivity of these parameters to PKC inhibition in control and ethanol-treated cells ...
