The presence of anti-NMDA receptor autoantibody can cause various neuropsychiatric symptoms in the affected patients, termed anti-NMDA receptor autoimmune encephalitis. Detection of the specific autoantibody against the NMDA receptor in the blood or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is essential for the accurate diagnosis of this condition. The NMDA receptor is an ion channel protein complex that conta...
Heteromeric NMDARs are composed of coagonist glycine-binding NR1 subunits and glutamate-binding NR2 subunits. The majority of functional NMDARs in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) contain two NR1 subunits and two NR2 subunits of which there are four types (A-D). We show that the potency of a variety of endogenous and synthetic glycine-site coagonists varies between recombinant NMDARs ...
Subunit composition of NMDA receptors (NMDARs) determines a range of physiological properties, downstream signaling effects, and binding partners. Differential localization of NR2A- or NR2B-containing NMDARs within the neuron and subunit-specific protein associations may explain differences in NR2A and NR2B contributions to synaptic plasticity and excitotoxic cell death. This question is compli...
Introduction: Morphine is a potent analgesic but its continual use results in analgesic tolerance. Mechanisms of this tolerance remain to be clarified. However, changes in the functions of μ-opioid and N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors have been proposed in morphine tolerance. We examined changes in gene expression of the NMDA receptor subunit 1 (NR1) at mRNA levels i...
The complete sequences and expression patterns of the NR1 (aptNR1) subunit of the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor and its alternative splice isoforms have been determined for the weakly electric fish Apteronotus leptorhynchus. The deduced amino acid sequence of aptNR1 is approximately 88 % identical to the NR1 sequences of other vertebrate. Two of the three alternative splice cassettes pre...
Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common form of partial epilepsy and affects 40% of the patients. Seizures arising from the mesial temporal lobe structures (i.e., amygdala and hippocampus) are common, whereas neocortical seizures are rare. In recent years, many studies aimed to identify the pattern of gene expression of neurotransmitters involved in molecular mechanisms of epilepsy. We ...
There are complex interactions between spermine, protons, and ifenprodil at N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors. Spermine stimulation may involve relief of proton inhibition, whereas ifenprodil inhibition may involve an increase in proton inhibition. We studied mutations at acidic residues in the NR1 subunit using voltage-clamp recording of NR1/NR2B receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes. Mutations ...
Functional N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors are formed from the assembly of NR1 and NR2 subunits. When expressed alone, the major NR1 splice variant and the NR2 subunits are retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), reflecting a quality control mechanism found in many complex multisubunit proteins to ensure that only fully assembled and properly folded complexes reach the cell surfac...
The effects of benzyl-polyamines were studied at recombinant N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. A number of mono-, di- and tri-benzyl polyamines, having benzyl substitutions on the terminal or central amino groups, inhibited responses of NR1/NR2 receptors in oocytes voltage-clamped at -70 mV. Among the most potent compounds was N1,N4, N8-tri-benzyl-spermi...
Deactivation of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) channels after brief agonist exposure determines the duration of their synaptic activation during excitatory neurotransmission. We performed patch-clamp recordings of L-glutamate responses from human embryonic kidney tumoral cells (HEK293) expressing NR1 subunit variants lacking exon 5 together with the NR2B subunit. These responses had deactivation c...
