Different Sites of Alcohol Action in the NMDA Receptor GluN2A and GluN2B Subunits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The NMDA receptor is a major target of alcohol action in the CNS, and recent behavioral and cellular studies have pointed to the importance of the GluN2B subunit in alcohol action.

Multifunctional H2S‐activated metal‐organic framework systems for targeted colorectal cancer imaging and synergistic copper‐induced tumor regression

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
The in situ reaction of Cu‐MOFs with endogenous H2S enabled PA imaging and facilitated combined PTT/chemotherapy for colorectal cancer therapy. Abstract Stimuli‐responsive nanomaterials offer significant potential for enhancing diagnostic accuracy, optimizing therapeutic efficacy, and advancing precision theranostics.

Serotonin Modulates Oscillations of the Membrane Potential in Isolated Spinal Neurons from Lampreys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Studies were performed on spinal neurons from lampreys isolated by an enzymatic/mechanical method using pronase. The effects of 100 µM serotonin (5-HT) on membrane potential oscillations induced by a variety of excitatory amino acids were studied.

β-Amyloid-induced Dynamin 1 Degradation Is Mediated by N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors in Hippocampal Neurons*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
Alzheimer disease (AD) is a progressive, neurodegenerative disorder that leads to debilitating cognitive deficits. Although little is known about the early functional or ultrastructural changes associated with AD, it has been proposed that a stage of ...

Untargeted Metabolomics Identifies N‐Lactoyl‐Amino Acids as Dose‐Responsive Plasma Biomarkers of Metformin Adherence in Type 2 Diabetes

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Metformin is the most widely prescribed antidiabetic drug, yet adherence remains difficult to objectively assess. Using untargeted metabolomics and lipidomics, we analyzed plasma from 637 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) with confirmed metformin use and 143 nondiabetic controls, annotating 614 metabolites.

Dual Action of Memantine in Alzheimer Disease: A Hypothesis

open access: yesTaiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2009
Objective: In this study, we proposed a hypothesis to explain the mechanisms of memantine action in treating Alzheimer disease (AD). Memantine may reduce the expression of amyloid precursor protein and tau protein, as well as acting as an antagonist of N-

Interaction of GABA and Excitatory Amino Acids in the Basolateral Amygdala: Role in Cardiovascular Regulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Activation of the amygdala in rats produces cardiovascular changes that include increases in heart rate and arterial pressure as well as behavioral changes characteristic of emotional arousal.

Predicting epilepsy after new onset refractory status epilepticus due to autoimmune encephalitis: The DAME score

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aimed to identify risk factors and develop a predictive scoring system for autoimmune‐associated epilepsy in subjects with autoimmune encephalitis presenting with new onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE). Methods This retrospective, multicenter, cohort study included subjects who presented with NORSE at the onset of

New Therapeutic Strategy for Amino Acid Medicine: Glycine Improves the Quality of Sleep

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
Glycine is a non-essential amino acid that has indispensable roles in both excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmission via N-methyl-D-aspartate type glutamate receptors and glycine receptors, respectively.

The Effects of Serotonin on Functionally Diverse Isolated Lamprey Spinal Cord Neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The experiments reported here showed that application of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) (100 µ M) did not induce any significant current through the membranes of any of the spinal neurons studied (n = 62).
