Journal ArticleDOI

The selective AMPA receptor antagonist GYKI 53784 blocks action potential generation and excitotoxicity in the guinea pig cochlea.

TL;DR: Results suggest that AMPA-preferring receptors are functionally located at the sensory cell-afferent synapse whereas NMDA and kainate receptors are not.
Journal ArticleDOI

Implication of nmda type glutamate receptors in neural regeneration and neoformation of synapses after excitotoxic injury in the guinea pig cochlea

TL;DR: The findings of this study support the hypothesis that, in addition to acting as a fast transmitter, glutamate has a neurotrophic role via the activation of NMDA receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The inner hair cell synaptic complex: physiology, pharmacology and new therapeutic strategies.

TL;DR: This presentation reviews the most recent findings obtained at the IHC synaptic complex with an original technique, namely coupling auditory nerve single unit recordings with multibarrel intracochlear perfusions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transient Ca2+-permeable AMPA receptors in postnatal rat primary auditory neurons.

TL;DR: It is reported that AMPA receptors at inner hair cell (IHC) synapses lack the GluR2 subunit and are transiently Ca2+‐permeable before hearing onset as evidenced using agonist‐induced Co2+ accumulation, Western blots and Glu R2 confocal microscopy in the rat cochlea.
