Ionotropic glutamate receptors: alive and kicking.

It has been about 25 years since a landmark cloning study identified the molecular identity of the first of 18 different genes that encode the ionotropic glutamate receptor (iGluR) family (Hollmann et al. 1989). Since that time, we have witnessed major advances in our understanding of the biology of iGluRs. Breakthroughs in genetics provided our first insights into the many roles iGluRs fulfil ...

Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors and their Role in Neurological Diseases

Glutamate is extensively and relatively uniformly distributed in the central nervous system (CNS) and its effects mediated by two distinct groups of receptors including Ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Concentration of glutamate in the nervous system is much higher than in other tissues. Glutamate receptors play an important role in synaptic transmission, neural plasticity and n...

Ligands for ionotropic glutamate receptors.

Marine-derived small molecules and peptides have played a central role in elaborating pharmacological specificities and neuronal functions of mammalian ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs), the primary mediators of excitatory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system (CNS). As well, the pathological sequelae elicited by one class of compounds (the kainoids) constitute a widely-used...

Homocysteine research: alive and kicking!

The first World Congress on Hyperhomocysteinaemia was held in Saarbruecken, Germany from June 5th to 9th, 2007. This congress was a highlight as it unified the 5th Conference on Hyperhomocysteinaemia in Saarbruecken with the 6th International Conference on Homocysteine Metabolism. This unification reflects our efforts to effectively exchange experiences of researchers in the field of homocystei...

Ionotropic glutamate receptors: genetics, behavior and electrophysiology.

Most rapid excitatory synaptic signaling is mediated by glutamatergic neurotransmission. An important challenge in neurobiology is to understand the molecular architecture of functional glutamatergic synapses. By combining the techniques of genetics, molecular biology and electrophysiology in C. elegans we have the potential to identify and characterize the molecules that contribute to the func...
