CNQX facilitates inhibitory synaptic transmission in rat hypoglossal nucleus
Presynaptic AMPA receptor-mediated modulation of GABA release from cerebellar molecular layer interneurons
TLDR
The absence of AMPAR-mediated effects in recordings from stargazer dissociated Purkinje cells, suggests that presynaptic AMPARs do not function without γ-2-association, which is identified as a crucial subunit for presyn synaptic modulation of GABA release that occurs via regulation of VGCCs remote from active zones.
Complex effects of CNQX on CA1 interneurons of the developing rat hippocampus
AMPA/Kainate Receptor-Mediated Downregulation of GABAergic Synaptic Transmission by Calcineurin after Seizures in the Developing Rat Brain
Hypoxia is the most common cause of perinatal seizures and can be refractory to conventional anticonvulsant drugs, suggesting an age-specific form of epileptogenesis. A model of hypoxia-induced…
AMPA/kainate and group-I metabotropic receptor antagonists infused into different brain areas impair memory formation of inhibitory avoidance in rats
TLDR
The data suggest that the consolidation of the avoidance memory requires intact non-NMDA receptor function in the hippocampus and the basolateral nucleus of the amygdala, but not necessarily in the entorhinal and parietal cortex, for long periods after training.
Ethanol Sensitivity of GABAergic Currents in Cerebellar Granule Neurons Is Not Increased by a Single Amino Acid Change (R100Q) in the α6 GABAA Receptor Subunit
TLDR
The α6-R100Q GABAA receptor subunit polymorphism does not in-crease the acute ethanol sensitivity of extrasynaptic receptors, lending further support to the hypothesis that ethanol modulates these currents indirectly via a presynaptic mechanism.
6-Cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX) increases GABAA receptor-mediated spontaneous postsynaptic currents in the dentate granule cells of rat hippocampal slices
Development of GABA(A) receptor-mediated inhibitory postsynaptic currents in hippocampus.
TLDR
The rate, amplitude, and kinetics of GABA(A,fast) mIPSCs showed significant changes between P10 and P30, suggesting counterbalancing changes in action potential-dependent inhibitory postsynaptic currents in IPSCs, consistent with the hypothesis that developmental changes in GABA (A,slow) IPSCs are due to changes in presynaptic excitability.

A hippocampal GluR5 kainate receptor regulating inhibitory synaptic transmission
TLDR
The effects of a potent and selective agonist and a selective antagonist are used to show that kainate receptors, comprised of or containing GluR5 subunits, regulate synaptic inhibition in the hippocampus, an action that could contribute to the epileptogenic effects of kainates.
Kainate receptors are involved in synaptic plasticity
TLDR
It is found that LY382884 is a selective antagonist at neuronal kainate receptors containing the GluR5 subunit, which has no effect on long-term potentiation (LTP) that is dependent onNMDA receptors but prevents the induction of mossy fibre LTP, which is independent of NMDA receptors.
Kainate Receptors Regulate Unitary IPSCs Elicited in Pyramidal Cells by Fast-Spiking Interneurons in the Neocortex
TLDR
It is suggested that KA receptors located on presynaptic FS cell terminals decrease the release of GABA and can be activated by glutamate released from the somatodendritic compartment of the postsynaptic pyramidal cells.
Kainate receptors mediate a slow postsynaptic current in hippocampal CA3 neurons
TLDR
It is reported that repetitive activation of the hippocampal mossy fibre pathway, which is associated with high-affinity kainate binding and many of the kainATE receptor subtypes, generates a slow excitatory synaptic current with all of the properties expected of a kainates receptor.
Potentiation of GABAergic synaptic transmission by AMPA receptors in mouse cerebellar stellate cells: changes during development
TLDR
The data show a developmentally regulated presynaptic potentiation of synaptic transmission between cerebellar interneurones mediated by AM PARs, and the possibility that the developmental switch could be due to a shift in the localization of AMPARs from the axonal to the somato‐dendritic compartment is discussed.

Presynaptic Effects of NMDA in Cerebellar Purkinje Cells and Interneurons
TLDR
It is concluded that activation of NMDARs in interneurons exerts complex presynaptic effects, and that the corresponding receptors are most likely located in the axonal domain of the cell.
