AMPA Receptors On Cell Membrane Make Us Smarter Date: September 15, 2009 Source: NWO (Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research) Summary: AMPA receptors are an important regulating factor ...

Dr. Uwe Schulte, Dr. Jochen Schwenk, Prof. Dr. Bernd Fakler, and their team have elucidated the enormous spatial and temporal dynamics in protein composition of the AMPA-type glutamate receptors ...

There are few scientific methods more elegantly simple than "just sprinkle it on top." Researchers at Tohoku University and ...

Using the polyamine toxin philanthotoxin, which selectively blocks calcium-permeable AMPA receptors, we show that synaptic transmission onto single hippocampal interneurons occurs by afferent ...

In the study, "GluA2-containing AMPA receptors form a continuum of Ca²⁺-permeable channels," published in Nature, ... This site, located outside the membrane electric field, ...

Dual AMPA receptor-mediated functions of excitation and disinhibition may ensure transmission ... Location and morphology of BCs were viewed under a fluorescence filter-equipped microscopy after ...

“Because of the predominant hippocampal location of TARP-γ8-dependent AMPA receptors, we believe that the efficacy and side effect profile of CERC-611 may represent an improvement compared to ...

This is a three-dimensional reconstruction of serial 2-D images of nerve cells in the cortex of a live mouse brain. AMPA receptors, green; nerve cell structures, magenta.

In a paper published in Molecular Psychiatry on October 15, 2024, a team of researchers led by Professor Takuya Takahashi from YCU reported a new technology to visualize α-amino-3-hydroxy-5 ...

The AMPA receptor plays a critical role for one of the brain's most abundant neurotransmitters -- glutamate -- which activates brain cells (neurons) ...
