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

Glutamate load fosters spreading depolarization under osmotic stress in brain slices. [PDF]
Front Cell NeurosciIntroductionCerebral 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

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.

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

Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors in Epilepsy: A Review Focusing on AMPA and NMDA Receptors
Biomolecules, 2020 It is widely accepted that glutamate-mediated neuronal hyperexcitation plays a causative role in eliciting seizures. Among glutamate receptors, the roles of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid (AMPA ...

Structure, Function, and Pharmacology of Glutamate Receptor Ion Channels
Pharmacological Reviews, 2021 Many physiologic effects of l-glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system, are mediated via signaling by ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs).

Simulation of postsynaptic glutamate receptors reveals critical features of glutamatergic transmission. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Activation of several subtypes of glutamate receptors contributes to changes in postsynaptic calcium concentration at hippocampal synapses, resulting in various types of changes in synaptic strength.

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 ...
