Hyperhomocysteinemia‐Driven Ischemic Stroke: Unraveling Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Horizons

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2025.
Neurotoxicity of Hcy. (A figure that best represents the scope of the paper.) Homocysteine can reduce the tightness of endothelial cell connections, increase vascular permeability, and damage the blood–brain barrier. Homocysteine activates various glutamate receptors on the surfaces of neurons and glial cells, triggering excitotoxicity, promoting the ...

Stimulation of microglial metabotropic glutamate receptor mGlu2 triggers tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced neurotoxicity in concert with microglial-derived fas ligand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Activated microglia may be detrimental to neuronal survival in a number of neurodegenerative diseases. Thus, strategies that reduce microglial neurotoxicity may have therapeutic benefit.

Temporal Profiling of Male Cortical Astrocyte Transcription Predicts Molecular Shifts From Early Development to Aging

open access: yesGlia, Volume 73, Issue 7, Page 1349-1364, July 2025.
Main Points Comprehensive analysis of cortical astrocyte gene expression across the lifespan. Profiling dynamic changes of key astrocyte genes reveals functional shifts. Astrocytes contribute to gene‐length‐dependent transcription decline in the aging brain.

Multi‐Omic Analysis Reveals Astrocytic Annexin‐A2 as Critical for Network‐Level Circadian Timekeeping in the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus

open access: yesGlia, Volume 73, Issue 7, Page 1483-1501, July 2025.
Main Points Multi‐omics reveal Annexin‐A2 (A2) and S100a10 (A10) as SCN astrocyte enriched proteins. Disrupting A2‐A10 complex elevates astrocyte Ca2+ and compromises SCN timekeeping. Astrocytic A2‐A10 is a critical control point for SCN network rhythms.

Glutamate Receptor Signaling in Retina Müller Cells: Plausible Role in Neurodegeneration

open access: yesReceptors
The retinal network relies on glutamate, the primary excitatory neurotransmitter involved in the visual cycle. Glutamate transactions are carried out by an array of distinct receptors and transporters distributed across both pre- and post-synaptic ...

Neurotoxic Agent-Induced Injury in Neurodegenerative Disease Model: Focus on Involvement of Glutamate Receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Glutamate receptors play a crucial role in the central nervous system and are implicated in different brain disorders. They play a significant role in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease,

Understanding the Intersection Between Hormonal Dynamics and Brain Plasticity in Alzheimer's Disease: A Narrative Review for Implementing New Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Alzheimer's disease (AD), a chronic neurodegenerative disorder, is portrayed by neurocognitive decline in the structure and function of the human brain. Various factors are implicated in the pathogenesis to neuroplasticity alteration in the brain of an individual afflicted with AD.

Chronic cocaine enhances release of neuroprotective amino acid taurine: a microdialysis study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Cocaine inhibits high-affinity neurotransmitter uptake at the presynaptic nerve terminals to increase synaptic levels of dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin^1^. This increase of synaptic dopamine may cause neurotoxicity^2,3^.

Glutamine Metabolism: Molecular Regulation, Biological Functions, and Diseases

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 7, July 2025.
Tumor cells adapt to nutrient‐poor environments by altering metabolism to acquire essential nutrients. They convert glutamine into glutamate and α‐ketoglutarate, supporting mTOR activation and sugar biosynthesis. Disruption of mTORC1 signaling is linked to disease, while glutamine and leucine activation promotes cell growth and inhibits autophagy ...

Common Mechanisms Underlying Opioid Tolerance and Dependence and Neuropathic Pain: Role of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors

open access: yesPain Research and Management, 2000
It has been suggested that opioid tolerance and dependence share common mechanisms with neuropathic pain. This short review deals with the role of glutamate and glutamate receptors in opioid tolerance and dependence, and neuropathic pain.
