In vivo detection of d-amino acid oxidase with hyperpolarized d-[1-C-13]alanine

Rolf Gruetter, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara, Alice Radaelli

d-amino acid oxidase (DAO) is a peroxisomal enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative deamination of several neutral and basic d-amino acids to their corresponding alpha-keto acids. In most mammalian species studied, high DAO activity is found in the kidney, liv ...

Synaptic proximity enables NMDAR signalling to promote brain metastasis

Graham Knott, Douglas Hanahan, Brian Donal McCabe, Mohammad Sadegh Saghafinia, Inti Zlobec, Iacovos Michael, Qiqun Zeng, Wei Jiao, Giovanni Ciriello, Peng Zhang

Metastasis-the disseminated growth of tumours in distant organs-underlies cancer mortality. Breast-to-brain metastasis (B2BM) is a common and disruptive form of cancer and is prevalent in the aggressive basal-like subtype, but is also found at varying freq ...

Response Adaptation in Barrel Cortical Neurons Facilitates Stimulus Detection during Rhythmic Whisker Stimulation in Anesthetized Mice

Natali Barros Zulaica

Rodents use rhythmic whisker movements at frequencies between 4 and 12 Hz to sense the environment that will be disturbed when the animal touches an object. The aim of this work is to study the response adaptation to rhythmic whisker stimulation trains at ...

Dual action of L-Lactate on the activity of NR2B-containing NMDA receptors: from potentiation to neuroprotection

Pierre Magistretti, Igor Allaman, Pierre Marquet, Pascal Jourdain, Kaspar Rothenfusser

L-Lactate is a positive modulator of NMDAR-mediated signaling resulting in plasticity gene induction and memory consolidation. However, L-Lactate is also able to protect neurons against excito-toxic NMDAR activity, an indication of a mitigating action of L ...

Catalytic amino acid production from biomass-derived intermediates

Paul Joseph Dyson, Ning Yan, Yefeng Wang, Shunlin Zhang, Yu Han

Amino acids are the building blocks for protein biosynthesis and find use in myriad industrial applications including in food for humans, in animal feed, and as precursors for bio-based plastics, among others. However, the development of efficient chemical ...

Cortical afferents onto the nucleus Reticularis thalami promote plasticity of low-threshold excitability through GluN2C-NMDARs

Simone Astori, Gil Vantomme

Thalamus and cortex represent a highly integrated processing unit that elaborates sensory representations. Interposed between cortex and thalamus, the nucleus Reticularis thalami (nRt) receives strong cortical glutamatergic input and mediates top-down inhi ...

Input-dependent regulation of excitability controls dendritic maturation in somatosensory thalamocortical neurons

Johannes Gräff, Jose Vicente Sanchez Mut

Input from the sensory organs is required to pattern neurons into topographical maps during development. Dendritic complexity critically determines this patterning process; yet, how signals from the periphery act to control dendritic maturation is unclear. ...

Involvement of the agmatinergic system in the depressive-like phenotype of the Crtc1 knockout mouse model of depression

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-René Cardinaux

Recent studies implicate the arginine-decarboxylation product agmatine in mood regulation. Agmatine has antidepressant properties in rodent models of depression, and agmatinase (Agmat), the agmatine-degrading enzyme, is upregulated in the brains of mood di ...
