Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors iGluR Ionotropic glutamate receptors iGluR (ionotropic glutamate receptor) is a ligand-gated ion channel that is activated by the neurotransmitter glutamate. iGluR are integral membrane proteins compose of four large subunits that form a central ion channel pore. Sequence similarity among all known glutamate receptor subunits, including the AMPA, kainate, NMDA, and δ receptors. AMPA receptors are the main charge carriers during basal transmission, permitting influx of sodium ions to depolarise the postsynaptic membrane. NMDA receptors are blocked by magnesium ions and therefore only permit ion flux following prior depolarisation. This enables them to act as coincidence detectors for synaptic plasticity. Calcium influx through NMDA receptors leads to persistent modifications in the strength of synaptic transmission. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 iGluR Inhibitors & Modulators (-)-Aspartic acid (-)-Dizocilpine Maleate ((R)-Aspartic acid; D-(-)-Aspartic acid) Cat.

Grably, Ph.D. N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptor (NMDAR) are ubiquitously expressed along the central nervous system and are instrumental to various physiological processes such as synaptic plasticity and learning.

Radin , Steven Johnson, Richard Purcell, Arnold S. Lippa RespireRx Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 126 Valley Road, Glen Rock, NJ, 07452, United States ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Neurotrophin dysregulation has been implicated in a large number of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric Ampakine diseases. Unfortunately, neurotrophins cannot cross the blood brain barrier thus, novel means of up regulating BDNF their expression are greatly needed. It has been demonstrated previously that neurotrophins are up regulated in Cognitive enhancement response to increases in brain activity. Therefore, molecules that act as cognitive enhancers may provide a LTP clinical means of up regulating neurotrophin expression. Ampakines are a class of molecules that act as positive Neurotrophin allosteric modulators of AMPA-type glutamate receptors. Currently, they are being developed to prevent opioid- NGF induced respiratory depression without sacrificing the analgesic properties of the opioids. In addition, these molecules increase neuronal activity and have been shown to restore age-related deficits in LTP in aged rats. In the current study, we examined whether two different ampakines could increase levels of BDNF and NGF at doses that are active in behavioral measures of cognition. Results demonstrate that ampakines CX516 and CX691 induce differential increases in neurotrophins across several brain regions. Notable increases in NGF were ob- served in the dentate gyrus and piriform cortex while notable BDNF increases were observed in basolateral and lateral nuclei of the amygdala.

  • Characterization of a Domoic Acid Binding Site from Pacific Razor Clam
    Aquatic Toxicology 69 (2004) 125–132 Characterization of a domoic acid binding site from Pacific razor clam Vera L. Trainer∗, Brian D. Bill NOAA Fisheries, Northwest Fisheries Science Center, Marine Biotoxin Program, 2725 Montlake Blvd. E., Seattle, WA 98112, USA Received 5 November 2003; received in revised form 27 April 2004; accepted 27 April 2004 Abstract The Pacific razor clam, Siliqua patula, is known to retain domoic acid, a water-soluble glutamate receptor agonist produced by diatoms of the genus Pseudo-nitzschia. The mechanism by which razor clams tolerate high levels of the toxin, domoic acid, in their tissues while still retaining normal nerve function is unknown. In our study, a domoic acid binding site was solubilized from razor clam siphon using a combination of Triton X-100 and digitonin. In a Scatchard analysis using [3H]kainic acid, the partially-purified membrane showed two distinct receptor sites, a high affinity, low capacity site with a KD (mean ± S.E.) of 28 ± 9.4 nM and a maximal binding capacity of 12 ± 3.8 pmol/mg protein and a low affinity, high capacity site with a mM affinity for radiolabeled kainic acid, the latter site which was lost upon solubilization. Competition experiments showed that the rank order potency for competitive ligands in displacing [3H]kainate binding from the membrane-bound receptors was quisqualate > ibotenate > iodowillardiine = AMPA = fluorowillardiine > domoate > kainate > l-glutamate. At high micromolar concentrations, NBQX, NMDA and ATPA showed little or no ability to displace [3H]kainate. In contrast, Scatchard analysis 3 using [ H]glutamate showed linearity, indicating the presence of a single binding site with a KD and Bmax of 500 ± 50 nM and 14 ± 0.8 pmol/mg protein, respectively.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You w ill find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract Nitric oxide (NO) has emerged as an ubiquitous signaling molecule in the central nervous system (CNS). NO is synthesised from molecular oxygen and the amino acid L-arginine (L- ARG) by the enzyme NO synthase (NOS), and the availability of L-ARG has been implicated as the limiting factor for NOS activity. Previous studies have indicated that L- ARG is localised in astrocytes in vitro and that the in vitro activation of non-N-methyl-D- aspartate (NMDA) receptors, as well as the presence of peroxynitrite (ONOO ), led to the release of L-ARG. Microdialysis was therefore used in this study to investigate whether this held true in vivo.

Yet, starting is the best decision that I will never regret. During the journey to this dissertation, both figurative as well as literal, I am deeply indebted to the many people who have provided me inspiration and supported my studies. My greatest gratitude goes to Dr. Jeffrey Hughes, my former mentor who gave me an opportunity to do research in his lab and for his excellent supervision, as well as his great sense of humor. I would like to gratefully thank Dr. Sihong Song for continuing to guide me in a new project when Dr. Hughes left. I also would like to express my thanks to Dr. Michael King and other committee members, Dr. Christopher Batich and Dr. Guenther Hochhaus for their detailed comments and great suggestions. Without their guidance, I would not have had such a great experience in completing this challenging project. I would like to express my special thanks to Dr. Aaron Hirko, for his constant help, patience and invaluable advice. A sincere thank you goes to Jeffrey Thinschmidt, who was always willing to help me with handling animals, performing laser-Doppler imaging experiments, providing great comments on dissertation as well as my talks, and contributing to a very happy lab environment.
