Ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs), a family of ligand-gated ion channels, are responsible for the majority of fast excitatory neurotransmission in the central nervous system. Within this family, different members serve distinct roles at glutamatergic synapses. Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors mediate fast depolarization while N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors mediate the slower component of the excitatory postsynaptic potential. These disparate functions suggest alternate modes of regulation. In this work, we show that endogenous regulators of iGluRs have different abilities to bind to specific domains of NMDA NR1-1b and AMPA GluR2 subunits. We have previously shown that the sulfated neurosteroids pregnenolone sulfate and 3α-hydroxy-5β-pregnan-20-one sulfate bind to the extracellular glutamate-binding core (S1S2) of the GluR2 subunit. Here we show that neither neurosteroid binds to the S1S2 domain of the NMDA NR1-1b subunit. This NR1-1b NMDA domain does, however, bind to the endogenous polyamines spermine and spermidine as well as Zn(II). Binding of the polyamines and Zn(II) to the S1S2 domain of the GluR2 subunit was not observed. This binding of Zn(II) and polyamines to the S1S2 domain of the NR1-1b subunit defines a new binding site for each of these modulators. 相似文献

Purpose
The purpose of the study was to assess the responses of pial artery pulsation (cc-TQ) and subarachnoid width (sas-TQ) to acetazolamide challenge in patients with chronic carotid artery stenosis and relate these responses to changes in peak systolic velocity (PSV), cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebral blood volume (CBV), mean transit time (MTT) and time to peak response (TTP).Methods
Fifteen patients with carotid artery stenosis ≥90% on the ipsilateral side and <50% on the contralateral side were enrolled into the study. PSV was assessed using colour-coded duplex sonography, CBF, CBV, MTT and TTP with perfusion computed tomography, cc-TQ and sas-TQ with near-infrared transillumination/backscattering sounding (NIR-T/BSS).Results
Based on the ipsilateral/contralateral cc-TQ ratio after acetazolamide challenge two groups of patients were distinguished: the first group with a ratio ≥1 and the second with a ratio <1. In the second group increases in CBF and CBV after the acetazolamide test were significantly higher in both hemispheres (ipsilateral: +33.0%±8.1% vs. +15.3%±4.4% and +26.3%±6.6% vs. +14.3%±5.1%; contralateral: +26.8%±7.0% vs. +17.6%±5.6% and +20.0%±7.3% vs. +10.0%±3.7%, respectively), cc-TQ was significantly higher only on the ipsilateral side (+37.3%±9.3% vs. +26.6%±8.6%) and the decrease in sas-TQ was less pronounced on the ipsilateral side (−0.7%±1.5% vs. −10.2%±1.5%), in comparison with the first group. The changes in sas-TQ following the acetazolamide test were consistent with the changes in TTP.Conclusions
The ipsilateral/contralateral cc-TQ ratio following acetazolamide challenge may be used to distinguish patient groups characterized by different haemodynamic parameters. Further research on a larger group of patients is warranted. 相似文献5.
