The relationship between four pharmacologically distinct NMDA receptor subtypes, identified in radioligand binding studies, and the recently identified NMDA receptor subunits (NR1a-g, NR2A-D) has not been determined. In this report, we demonstrate that the anatomical distribution of the four NMDA receptor subtypes strikingly parallels the distribution of mRNA encoding NR2A-D subunits. The distr...
N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are enriched in the neostriatum and are thought to mediate several actions of glutamate including neuronal excitability, long-term synaptic plasticity, and excitotoxic injury. NMDA receptors are assembled from several subunits (NMDAR1, NMDAR2A-D) encoded by five genes; alternative splicing gives rise to eight isoforms of subunit NMDAR1. We studied the expre...
NMDA receptor subunit composition varies throughout the brain, providing molecular diversity in NMDA receptor function. The NR2 subunits (NR2A-D) in large part dictate the distinct functional properties of NMDA receptors and differentially regulate receptor trafficking. Although the NR2C subunit is highly enriched in cerebellar granule cells and plays a unique role in cerebellar function, littl...
Zinc is coreleased with glutamate from excitatory nerve terminals throughout the central nervous system and acutely inhibits N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor activation. Here we report that cultured murine cortical neurons briefly exposed to sublethal concentrations of zinc developed increased intracellular free Na(+), phosphorylation of Src kinase at tyrosine 220, and tyrosine phosphorylat...
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are present at many excitatory glutamate synapses in the central nervous system and display unique properties that depend on their subunit composition. Biophysical, pharmacological and molecular methods have been used to determine the key features conferred by the various NMDAR subunits, and have helped to establish which NMDAR subtypes are present at par...
JIP scaffold proteins are implicated in the regulation of protein kinase signal transduction pathways. To test the physiological role of these scaffold proteins, we examined the phenotype of compound mutant mice that lack expression of JIP proteins. These mice were found to exhibit severe defects in N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor function, including decreased NMDA-evoked current ampli...
Involvement of the secretory pathway for AMPA receptors in NMDA-induced potentiation in hippocampus.
A chemical form of synaptic potentiation was produced with a brief bath application of NMDA to rat hippocampal slices. Two methods were used to assess changes in membrane-bound AMPA receptors. Traditional subcellular fractionation was used to isolate synaptic membranes; alternatively, membrane receptors were cross-linked with the membrane-impermeable reagent bis(sulfosuccinimidyl) suberate, and...
Rita Evelyn Sirrieh, B.S. Advisory Professor: Vasanthi Jayaraman, Ph.D. N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are one of the three main types of ionotropic glutamate receptors in the central nervous system. NMDA receptors mediate the rapid excitatory neurotransmission that underlies learning and memory formation. Conversely, NMDA receptors are implicated in a variety of neurological disorders. ...
Adult naked mole-rats show a number of systemic adaptations to a crowded underground habitat that is low in oxygen and high in carbon dioxide. Remarkably, brain slice tissue from adult naked mole-rats also is extremely tolerant to oxygen deprivation as indicated by maintenance of synaptic transmission under hypoxic conditions as well as by a delayed neuronal depolarization during anoxia. These ...
