Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of a serotonin/glutamate receptor complex implicated in psychosis

TL;DR: It is shown that the mGluR2 interacts through specific transmembrane helix domains with the 2AR, a member of an unrelated G-protein-coupled receptor family, to form functional complexes in brain cortex that may be involved in the altered cortical processes of schizophrenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the origin of extracellular glutamate levels monitored in the basal ganglia of the rat by in vivo microdialysis.

TL;DR: It is concluded that there is a pool of releasable Glu and Asp in the rat brain, and extracellular levels of amino acids monitored by in vivo microdialysis reflect the balance between neuronal release and reuptake into surrounding nerve terminals and glial elements.
Journal ArticleDOI

α2-Adrenoceptors in the brain of suicide victims: increased receptor density associated with major depression

TL;DR: The results indicate that the density and affinity of alpha 2A-adrenoceptors in the high-affinity state are increased in the brain of depressed suicides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antidepressant Efficacy and Tolerability of Ketamine and Esketamine: A Critical Review.

TL;DR: Concerns remain regarding an effective protocol to maintain the clinical antidepressant effect of ketamine seen with acute administration and the safety of ketamines and esketamine in the long term, specifically related to potential neurocognitive and urologic toxicity, together with the potential induction of substance use disorders.
