The Stargazin-Related Protein {gamma}7 Interacts with the mRNA-Binding Protein Heterogeneous Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein A2 and Regulates the Stability of Specific mRNAs, Including CaV2.2 [PDF]
The role(s) of the novel stargazin-like {gamma}-subunit proteins remain controversial. We have shown previously that the neuron-specific {gamma}7 suppresses the expression of certain calcium channels, particularly CaV2.2, and is therefore unlikely to ...

LGI proteins in the nervous system [PDF]
The development and function of the vertebrate nervous system depend on specific interactions between different cell types. Two examples of such interactions are synaptic transmission and myelination.

Based on R, immune infiltration analysis found that normal and disease immune cells expressed differently, weighted gene co‐expression network analysis determined the key genes of diseases and clustering, and eXtreme Gradient Boosting model screened Hub genes. Abstract This study aims to explore the expression profile of PANoptosis‐related genes (PRGs)

Amyloid‐β‐Induced Dysregulation of AMPA Receptor Trafficking
Evidence from neuropathological, genetic, animal model, and biochemical studies has indicated that the accumulation of amyloid‐beta (Aβ) is associated with, and probably induces, profound neuronal changes in brain regions critical for memory and cognition in the development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Advances in understanding the pathogenesis of epilepsy: Unraveling the molecular mechanisms
Abstract Introduction Epilepsy is characterized by having two or more unprovoked seizures. Understanding the pathogenesis of epilepsy, requires deep investigation into the molecular mechanisms. This helps develop diagnostic techniques, treatments, and pharmacotherapy. It also enhances precision medicine and individualized treatment processes.

Nitric Oxide‐Mediated Posttranslational Modifications: Impacts at the Synapse
Nitric oxide (NO) is an important gasotransmitter molecule that is involved in numerous physiological processes throughout the nervous system. In addition to its involvement in physiological plasticity processes (long‐term potentiation, LTP; long‐term depression, LTD) which can include NMDAR‐mediated calcium‐dependent activation of neuronal nitric ...

Human neuronal stargazin-like proteins, γ_2, γ_3 and γ_4; an investigation of their specific localization in human brain and their influence on Ca_V2.1 voltage-dependent calcium channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes [PDF]
Background: Stargazin (γ2) and the closely related γ3, and γ4 transmembrane proteins are part of a family of proteins that may act as both neuronal voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCC) γ subunits and transmembrane α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4 ...

Glutamat-Rezeptoren und synaptische Plastizität in der lateralen Amygdala [PDF]
Synaptische Plastizität an zentralen Synapsen gilt als grundlegender Mechanismus für Lernen und Gedächtnis. Die Amygdala ist für das Furchtgedächtnis von besonderer Bedeutung.

Abstract The transmembrane α‐amino‐3‐hydroxy‐5‐methyl‐4‐isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPAR) regulatory proteins (TARPs), γ2 (stargazin), γ3, γ4, γ5, γ7, and γ8, are a family of proteins that regulate AMPAR trafficking, expression, and biophysical properties that could have a role in the development of absence seizures.

D‐Amino Acids in the Nervous and Endocrine Systems
Amino acids are important components for peptides and proteins and act as signal transmitters. Only L‐amino acids have been considered necessary in mammals, including humans. However, diverse D‐amino acids, such as D‐serine, D‐aspartate, D‐alanine, and D‐cysteine, are found in mammals.
