This study investigated how kainate receptors (KARs) are targeted to hippocampal interneuron synapses in CA1. Interneurons in stratum radiatum/lacunosum‑moleculare expres [...]

Long-term potentiation (LTP) relies on coordinated kinase activity, including CaMKII and ERK, to regulate synaptic strength through AMPA receptor function and trafficking [...]

Glutamate, the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, must be rapidly cleared from the extracellular space to prevent excitotoxicity and maintain precise synap [...]

Brain ischemia triggers a two‑phase response that ultimately leads to neuronal injury. While much research has focused on the severe ionic disruption of the late phase, e [...]

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD), which results from gestational ethanol (a short-chain primary alcohol) exposure, is the most common form of preventable intellect [...]

Ca²⁺-activated small-conductance K⁺ (SK) channels regulate neuronal excitability by coupling intracellular Ca²⁺ signals to membrane hyperpolarization. Using electrophysio [...]
