Temporally Dependent Changes in Cocaine-Induced Synaptic Plasticity in the Nucleus Accumbens Shell are Reversed by D1-Like Dopamine Receptor Stimulation

TL;DR: D1DRs gate the stability of these cocaine-induced changes at glutamatergic synapses in the accumbens shell by utilizing multiple temporally distinct mechanisms, which has implications for the treatment of cocaine craving and addiction.

Phosphorylation-Dependent Regulation of Ca2+-Permeable AMPA Receptors During Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity.

TL;DR: The role of protein phosphorylation in regulation of GluA1 CP-AMPAR recruitment and removal from hippocampal synapses during synaptic plasticity is focused on with an emphasis on the crucial role of local signaling by the cAMP-dependentprotein kinase (PKA) and the Ca2+calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase 2B/calcineurin (CaN).

An NMDA Receptor-Dependent Mechanism Underlies Inhibitory Synapse Development

TL;DR: It is reported that NMDA-type ionotropic glutamate receptors in individual immature neurons are the upstream signaling molecules essential for GABAergic synapse development, which requires signaling via Calmodulin binding motif in the C0 domain of the NMDAR GluN1 subunit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction Proteomics Reveals Brain Region-Specific AMPA Receptor Complexes

TL;DR: The study reveals that AMPA receptor Auxiliary proteins are engaged in distinct brain region-specific AMPA receptors subcomplexes, which might underlie brain area-specific differential regulation of AMPAceptor properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

AMPA Receptor Dysregulation and Therapeutic Interventions in a Mouse Model of CDKL5 Deficiency Disorder

TL;DR: Elevated hippocampal GluA2-lacking AMPAR expression is revealed in a novel mouse model of CDD that is accompanied by changes in synaptic AMPAR function and plasticity, and it is shown that acute treatment with the IEM-1460 decreased AMPAR currents, and rescued social deficits, working memory impairments, and seizure behavior latency in R59X mice.

Driving AMPA Receptors into Synapses by LTP and CaMKII: Requirement for GluR1 and PDZ Domain Interaction

TL;DR: Results show that LTP and CaMKII activity drive AMPA-Rs to synapses by a mechanism that requires the association between GluR1 and a PDZ domain protein.

RNA editing in brain controls a determinant of ion flow in glutamate-gated channels.

TL;DR: It is shown that the genomic DNA sequences encoding the particular channel segment of all subunits harbor a glutamine codon (CAG), even though an arginine codon is found in mRNAs of three subunits.
