Cross-talk and regulation between glutamate and GABAB receptors [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Brain function depends on co-ordinated transmission of signals from both excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters acting upon target neurons.

Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors Inhibit Microglial Glutamate Release [PDF]

open access: yesASN Neuro, 2012
Pro-inflammatory stimuli evoke an export of glutamate from microglia that is sufficient to contribute to excitotoxicity in neighbouring neurons. Since microglia also express various glutamate receptors themselves, we were interested in the potential ...

Glutamate load fosters spreading depolarization under osmotic stress in brain slices [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
IntroductionCerebral edema is a hallmark of lesion progression after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and a major contributor to the evolution of spreading depolarizations (SDs). SDs trigger extracellular glutamate accumulation and excitotoxic injury, yet the

Researching glutamate – induced cytotoxicity in different cell lines: a comparative/, collective analysis/study [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Sex differences in AMPA receptor trafficking proteins [PDF]

open access: yesBiology of Sex Differences
AMPA receptors are a type of ionotropic glutamate receptor that is important for fast excitatory neurotransmission. healthy brain function. Glutamate signaling is regulated, in part, by the trafficking of glutamate receptors in and out of the synapse ...

An Insight into Animal Glutamate Receptors Homolog of Arabidopsis thaliana and Their Potential Applications—A Review

open access: yesPlants, 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

The Role of Glutamate Receptors in Epilepsy

open access: yesBiomedicines, 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

Glutamate may be an efferent transmitter that elicits inhibition in mouse taste buds. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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

Molecular Mechanisms of Glutamate Toxicity in Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesFrontiers 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.
