Bioprinting cell laden structures with chitosan-gelatin for neural tissue applications
Roehm, Kevin D. (2018-07)Nearly 1 billion people suffer from neurological disorders, and approximately 400,000 patients require surgical intervention to repair damaged peripheral nerves every year. There is a need, therefore, for three-dimensional ... -
Changes in Glutamate Cycle Metabolism in Response to Peripheral Nerve Injury
Alothman, Shaima (Oklahoma State University, 2013-05-01)Scope and Method of Study: Neuropathic pain is a common complication of peripheral nerve injuries. In pain studies, it has been revealed that glutamate neurotransmission has a critical role in the noxious stimulus sensation. ... -
Pain and perspective: Compartmented co-culture to evaluate sensory neuron peripheral glutamate receptors
Myers, Warren Kellen (2016-07)The neurotransmitter L-Glutamate is the primary excitatory neurotransmitter of sensory neurons in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG). These neurons may also express ionotropic glutamate receptors, causing the potential for ... -
Structure-function relationships of the pore-forming subunits of the AMPA receptor and the auxiliary subunit stargazin
Levchenko-Lambert, Yanina (2009-07)AMPA receptors mediate the majority of neurotransmission in the CNS. One of the most important properties of AMPA receptors is their quick and profound desensitization in the presence of glutamate. Although, the mechanism ...
