Neuronal hyperexcitability: A key to unraveling hippocampal synaptic dysfunction in Lafora disease

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objective Lafora disease (LD) is a rare progressive disorder caused by mutations in the EPM2A or EPM2B genes, characterized by the accumulation of Lafora bodies, drug‐resistant epilepsy, and cognitive decline. To investigate the early molecular mechanisms of LD, we studied electrophysiological changes in the dentate gyrus (DG ...

WONOEP XVII appraisal: The immunopathogenesis of epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract There is a wealth of data indicating that the immune system plays an important role in seizure disorders. This includes autoimmune encephalitis, in which an immune response directed against neuronal antigens results in brain inflammation and subsequent seizure activity, as well as autoimmune‐associated epilepsy and neuroinflammatory changes ...

D1/D5 receptor activation promotes long‐term potentiation and synaptic tagging/capture in hippocampal area CA2

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Activation of dopamine receptor D1 (D1R) stimulates PKA and ERK pathways via dissociation of stimulatory and olfactory G protein alpha subunits (Gαs/olf). PKA relieves striatal‐enriched protein tyrosine phosphatase (STEP) inhibition of ERK, promoting cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element‐binding protein (CREB)‐driven transcription of ...

A short peptide derived from late embryogenesis abundant proteins enhances acid tolerance in Escherichia coli via modulation of two‐component regulatory systems

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Expression of the LEA‐K peptide in E. coli BL21 (DE3) improved bacterial viability under acidic stress (pH4), suggesting a protective function. RNA‐sequencing of LEA‐K‐expressing vs. non‐expressing cells revealed 283 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). In silico docking linked LEA‐K to two‐component systems (TCS) proteins (Rcs, BtsS/R, and EnvZ/OmpR)

TRPM3 activation causes CGRP release in trigeminal neurons: Implications for migraine mechanisms

open access: yesHeadache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The transient receptor potential melastatin 3 (TRPM3) ion channel has been implicated in sensory modulation and pain transmission and may contribute to migraine pathophysiology through calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) release in the trigeminovascular system. This study aimed to investigate TRPM3 activation and its role in CGRP
