Cross-talk and regulation between glutamate and GABAB receptors [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015 Brain function depends on co-ordinated transmission of signals from both excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters acting upon target neurons.

Researching glutamate – induced cytotoxicity in different cell lines: a comparative/, collective analysis/study [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015 Although glutamate is one of the most important excitatory neurotransmitters of the central nervous system, its excessive extracellular concentration leads to uncontrolled continuous depolarization of neurons, a toxic process called, excitotoxicity.

Chronic Glutamate Toxicity in Neurodegenerative Diseases—What is the Evidence?
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015 Together with aspartate, glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain. Glutamate binds and activates both ligand-gated ion channels (ionotropic glutamate receptors) and a class of G-protein coupled receptors (metabotropic glutamate ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Glutamate Toxicity in Parkinson’s Disease
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020 Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disease, the pathological features of which include the presence of Lewy bodies and the neurodegeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta.

The Role of Glutamate Receptors in Epilepsy
Biomedicines, 2023 Glutamate is an essential excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, playing an indispensable role in neuronal development and memory formation. The dysregulation of glutamate receptors and the glutamatergic system is involved in numerous

Plants, 2022 Most excitatory impulses received by neurons are mediated by ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs). These receptors are located at the apex and play an important role in memory, neuronal development, and synaptic plasticity.

The role of glutamate receptors in the regulation of the tumor microenvironment
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Glutamate, as one of the most important carbon sources in the TCA cycle, is central in metabolic processes that will subsequently influence tumor progression.

Glutamate may be an efferent transmitter that elicits inhibition in mouse taste buds. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Recent studies suggest that l-glutamate may be an efferent transmitter released from axons innervating taste buds. In this report, we determined the types of ionotropic synaptic glutamate receptors present on taste cells and that underlie this postulated

Afferent convergence to a shared population of interneuron AMPA receptors
Nature Communications, 2023 Precise alignment of pre- and postsynaptic elements optimizes the activation of glutamate receptors at excitatory synapses. Nonetheless, glutamate that diffuses out of the synaptic cleft can have actions at distant receptors, a mode of transmission ...
