Ligands for Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors [PDF]
, 2009 Marine-derived small molecules and peptides have played a central role in elaborating pharmacological specificities and neuronal functions of mammalian ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs), the primary mediators of excitatory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system (CNS).

Pharmacological analysis of ionotropic glutamate receptor function in neuronal circuits of the zebrafish olfactory bulb. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 Although synaptic functions of ionotropic glutamate receptors in the olfactory bulb have been studied in vitro, their roles in pattern processing in the intact system remain controversial.

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

Phased Treatment Strategies for Cerebral Ischemia Based on Glutamate Receptors
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019 Extracellular glutamate accumulation following cerebral ischemia leads to overactivation of glutamate receptors, thereby resulting in intracellular Ca2+ overload and excitotoxic neuronal injury. Multiple attempts have been made to counteract such effects

Assembly Stoichiometry of the GluK2/GluK5 Kainate Receptor Complex
Cell Reports, 2012 Ionotropic glutamate receptors assemble as homo- or heterotetramers. One well-studied heteromeric complex is formed by the kainate receptor subunits GluK2 and GluK5.

Insect odorant response sensitivity is tuned by metabotropically autoregulated olfactory receptors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Insects possess one of the most exquisitely sensitive olfactory systems in the animal kingdom, consisting of three different types of chemosensory receptors: ionotropic glutamate-like receptors (IRs), gustatory receptors (GRs) and odorant receptors (ORs).

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.
