Glia-neuron signaling
… bradykinin causes a receptor-mediated release of excitatory amino acids (EAAs), glutamate and aspartate, from glial cultures obtained from dorsal root ganglia (DRG) together with an increase in the cytoplasmic level of glial free calcium. Perturbations which inhibited bradykinin-induced calcium …

SMN DEFICIENCY INDUCES NEUROACTIVE AMINOACIDS DYSMETABOLISM: BRIDGING INSIGHTS FROM PRECLINICAL MODELS TO CLINICAL EVIDENCE IN SMA PATIENTS
… We investigated how SMN deficiency disrupts amino acid metabolism and neurotransmission across central and peripheral systems, integrating data from SMA mouse models, Drosophila, and patient biofluids. First, we show that excitatory amino acids, including L-glutamate, L-glutamine, D-serine, …

Angiotensin II modulates glutamate-induced depolarizations and synaptic transmission in rat locus coeruleus neurons in vitro.
… Sar$\sp1$-AII, an analogue which is resistant to aminopeptidase degradation was bath-applied, or when AII was applied together with peptidase inhibitors, the depressant action on Glu responses was observed. Like AII, angiotensin III (AIII) also had depressant actions on Glu responses in LC …

Neurochemical Effects of Concurrent Exposure to Repeated Stress and Chlorpyrifos on the Central Nervous System
… and chlorpyrifos (CPF) on concentrations of excitatory amino acids, activities of cholinergic enzymes, and maximum binding density (Bmax) and equilibrium dissociation rate constant (Kd) of NMDA and total muscarinic receptors were studied in Long-Evans rats. The study was divided into 4 …

Study of the etiology of neurolathyrism, a human neurodegenerative disease with nutritional causes
… results in a spastic paraparesis. The neuro-excitatory amino acid β-N-oxalyl-L-α,β-diaminopropionic acid (L-β-ODAP) present in grass pea was proposed as the cause of the disease. Although the mechanism of its action has not been conclusively elucidated, excitotoxicity and oxidative …
