Development of glutamatergic synaptic transmission in binaural auditory neurons.
Glutamatergic synaptic transmission is essential for binaural auditory processing in birds and mammals. Using whole cell voltage clamp recordings, we characterized the development of synaptic ionotropic glutamate receptor (iGluR) function from auditory neurons in the chick nucleus laminaris (NL), the first nucleus responsible for binaural processing. We show that synaptic transmission is mediat...
متن کاملIonotropic glutamate receptors: alive and kicking.
It has been about 25 years since a landmark cloning study identified the molecular identity of the first of 18 different genes that encode the ionotropic glutamate receptor (iGluR) family (Hollmann et al. 1989). Since that time, we have witnessed major advances in our understanding of the biology of iGluRs. Breakthroughs in genetics provided our first insights into the many roles iGluRs fulfil ...
متن کاملNeural reprogramming in retinal degeneration.
PURPOSE Early visual defects in degenerative diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa (RP) may arise from phased remodeling of the neural retina. The authors sought to explore the functional expression of ionotropic (iGluR) and group 3, type 6 metabotropic (mGluR6) glutamate receptors in late-stage photoreceptor degeneration. METHODS Excitation mapping with organic cations and computational mole...
متن کاملDrosophila Neto is essential for clustering glutamate receptors at the neuromuscular junction.
Neurotransmitter receptor recruitment at postsynaptic specializations is key in synaptogenesis, since this step confers functionality to the nascent synapse. The Drosophila neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is a glutamatergic synapse, similar in composition and function to mammalian central synapses. Various mechanisms regulating the extent of postsynaptic ionotropic glutamate receptor (iGluR) clust...
