Central sensitization represents an enhancement in the function of neurons and circuits in
nociceptive pathways caused by increases in membrane excitability and synaptic efficacy as …

Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGlus) are a family of G-protein-coupled receptors
activated by the neurotransmitter glutamate. Molecular cloning has revealed eight different …

The third edition of this monograph continues to have the goal of providing an overview of
current thought about the spinal cord mechanisms that are responsible for sensory …

The dendrites of motoneurons are not, as once thought, passive conduits for synaptic inputs.
Instead they have voltage‐dependent channels that provide the capacity to generate a very …

The Mouse Nervous System provides a comprehensive account of the central nervous
system of the mouse. The book is aimed at molecular biologists who need a book that …

The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) have distinct distribution patterns in the
CNS but subtypes within group I or group III mGluRs share similar ultrastructural localization …

Cortical gamma oscillations contribute to cognitive processing and are thought to be
supported by perisomatic-innervating GABAergic interneurons. We performed extracellular …

Metabotropic glutamate receptors are expressed abundantly in the spinal cord and have
been shown to play important roles in the modulation of nociceptive transmission and …

Metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors have been considered as potential targets for
neuroprotective drugs, but the lack of specific drugs has limited the development of …

Almost 25 years after the first report that glutamate can activate receptors coupled to
heterotrimeric G-proteins, tremendous progress has been made in the field of metabotropic …
