Fathoming the kynurenine pathway in migraine: why understanding the enzymatic cascades is still critically important [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Kynurenine pathway, the quantitatively main branch of tryptophan metabolism, has been long been considered a source of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, although several of its products, the so-called kynurenines, are endowed with the capacity to ...

Glutamate receptor pores [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 2014
AbstractGlutamate receptors are ligand‐gated ion channels that mediate fast excitatory synaptic transmission throughout the central nervous system. Functional receptors are homo‐ or heteromeric tetramers with each subunit contributing a re‐entrant pore loop that dips into the membrane from the cytoplasmic side. The pore loops form a narrow constriction

Metabotropic glutamate receptors in cancer [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropharmacology, 2017
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are widely known for their roles in synaptic signaling. However, accumulating evidence suggests roles of mGluRs in human malignancies in addition to synaptic transmission. Somatic cell homeostasis presents intriguing possibilities of mGluRs and glutamate signaling as novel targets for human cancers.

Loss of FKBP5 Affects Neuron Synaptic Plasticity: An Electrophysiology Insight [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
FKBP5 (FKBP51) is a glucocorticoid receptor (GR) binding protein, which acts as a co-chaperone of heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) and negatively regulates GR.

Epileptic syndrome in the clinical picture of the diseaseand the level of antibodies to GluR1 subunit of AMPA glutamate receptors in the patients with gliomas in the cerebral hemispheres of a brain

open access: yesУчёные записки Санкт-Петербургского государственного медицинского университета им. Акад. И.П. Павлова, 2013
The authors examined 92 patients with gliomas in the cerebral hemispheres. The immunoenzyme method was used for semiquantitative assay of the level of autoantibodies to GluR1 subunit of AMPA receptors of glutamate.

Pathophysiological Ionotropic Glutamate Signalling in Neuroinflammatory Disease as a Therapeutic Target

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Glutamate signalling is an essential aspect of neuronal communication involving many different glutamate receptors, and underlies the processes of memory, learning and synaptic plasticity.

C-Terminal truncation of NR2A subunits impairs synaptic but not extrasynaptic localization of NMDA receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
NMDA receptors interact via the extended intracellular C-terminal domain of the NR2 subunits with constituents of the postsynaptic density for purposes of retention, clustering, and functional regulation at central excitatory synapses.

Astroglial Glutamate Signaling and Uptake in the Hippocampus

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Astrocytes have long been regarded as essentially unexcitable cells that do not contribute to active signaling and information processing in the brain. Contrary to this classical view, it is now firmly established that astrocytes can specifically respond

Analgesia induced by the epigenetic drug, L-acetylcarnitine, outlasts the end of treatment in mouse models of chronic inflammatory and neuropathic pain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: L-acetylcarnitine, a drug marketed for the treatment of chronic pain, causes analgesia by epigenetically up-regulating type-2 metabotropic glutamate (mGlu2) receptors in the spinal cord.
