Ionotropic glutamate receptors function can be affected by neurosteroids, both positively and negatively. N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor responses to exogenously applied glutamate are potentiated or inhibited (depending on the receptor subunit composition) by pregnenolone sulphate (PS) and inhibited by pregnanolone sulphate (3alpha5betaS). While PS effect is most pronounced when its appli...
Ionotropic glutamate receptors of the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)- and AMPA-type, as well as metabotropic glutamate receptors have been extensively invoked in plasticity. Until relatively recently, however, kainate-type receptors (KARs) had been the most elusive to study because of the lack of appropriate pharmacological tools to specifically address their roles. With the development of selecti...
Huntington's disease is a dominantly inherited, progressive neurodegenerative disorder causing marked pathology in the basal ganglia. The pathophysiology of the selective neuronal death is as yet unknown, but evidence suggests that the neurotoxicity may result from endogenous substances acting at excitatory amino acid receptors. Previous data have shown a selective decrease in binding to one cl...
Several lines of evidence indicate that LTP in the hippocampus is associated with a change in the properties of postsynaptic glutamate receptors. In the present study, we used quantitative autoradiography to examine the binding properties of the alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionate (AMPA) and N-methyl-D-aspartate subclasses of glutamate receptors in frozen brain sections obtain...
Studies in slices suggest that alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor-mediated synaptic currents are not present in CA1 (Cornu ammonis) pyramidal neurons at birth (P0). We have re-examined this issue in the rat intact hippocampal formation (IHF) in vitro. Injections of biocytin or carbocyanine show that the temporo-ammonic, commissural and Schaffer collateral p...
Pharmacological characterisation of S 47445, a novel positive allosteric modulator of AMPA receptors
S 47445 is a novel positive allosteric modulator of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionic acid (AMPA) receptors (AMPA-PAM). S 47445 enhanced glutamate's action at AMPA receptors on human and rat receptors and was inactive at NMDA and kainate receptors. Potentiation did not differ among the different AMPA receptors subtypes (GluA1/2/4 flip and flop variants) (EC50 between 2.5-5.4 ...
Oligodendrocytes, the myelinating cells of CNS axons, are highly vulnerable to excitotoxic signals mediated by glutamate receptors of the AMPA and kainate classes. Receptors in these cells are commonly activated by glutamate that is released from axons and glial cells. In addition, oligodendrocytes contribute to the control of extracellular glutamate levels by means of their own transporters. H...
Fast excitatory neurotransmission is mediated largely by ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs), tetrameric, ligand-gated ion channel proteins comprised of three subfamilies, AMPA, kainate and NMDA receptors, with each subfamily sharing a common, modular-domain architecture. For all receptor subfamilies, active channels are exclusively formed by assemblages of subunits within the same subfamil...
N-methyl--aspartate (NMDA) receptors are often the first ionotropic glutamate receptors expressed at early stages of development and appear to influence neuronal differentiation by mediating Ca2+ influx. Although less well studied, alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors also can generate Ca2+ elevations and may have developmental roles. We document the presenc...
The effect of phenobarbital (PB) on the cytotoxicity induced by the excitatory amino acids (EAAs) glutamate, aspartate, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), kainate (KA), quisqualate (QA) and RS-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolopropionate (AMPA) was investigated in cultured cerebral cortex neurones. PB (100 microM) completely protected against the total cytotoxic damage induced by KA, whereas ...
