The Deletion of GluK2 Alters Cholinergic Control of Neuronal Excitability

Adam Gorlewicz et al.

Summary: Kainate receptors (KARs) play a crucial role in regulating synaptic circuits through ionotropic or metabotropic mechanisms. This study reveals that the acute convulsive effect of kainate is primarily dependent on GluK2/GluK5 containing KARs, while the convulsive activity induced by pilocarpine and pentylenetetrazol is not affected by the absence of KARs. Interestingly, the genetic inactivation of GluK2 increases susceptibility to acute pilocarpine-induced seizures.

Activation of Extrasynaptic Kainate Receptors Drives Hilar Mossy Cell Activity

Czarina Ramos et al.

Summary: This study provides the first direct evidence of functional extrasynaptic kainate receptors (KARs) on mossy cells (MCs) in the hippocampus. These KARs are mainly located extrasynaptically and play a critical role in the activity of MCs. Increases in ambient glutamate can activate the KARs on MCs.

CRISPR-Cas13-Mediated Knockdown of Regulator of G-Protein Signaling 8 (RGS8) Does Not Affect Purkinje Cell Dendritic Development

Qin-Wei Wu et al.

Summary: In this study, CRISPR-Cas13 technology was used to study gene function in differentiating neurons by targeting RGS8. The results showed that CRISPR-Cas13-mediated knockdown did not significantly affect the dendritic growth of Purkinje cells, establishing it as a reliable method for studying gene function in primary neurons.

The Emerging Key Role of the mGluR1-PKCγ Signaling Pathway in the Pathogenesis of Spinocerebellar Ataxias: A Neurodevelopmental Viewpoint

Qin-Wei Wu et al.

Summary: This article summarizes the clinical features of spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) and the role of gene function in cerebellar Purkinje cell development. It also discusses the relationship between SCA pathogenesis and neurodevelopment, with a focus on the potential common pathway involved in these diseases, namely the mGluR1-PKC gamma signaling pathway.

Kainate receptor regulation of synaptic inhibition in the hippocampus

Jessica C. Pressey et al.

Summary: Kainate receptors (KARs) mediate both ionotropic currents and metabotropic signalling. They regulate GABA release in the hippocampus bidirectionally through ionotropic and metabotropic pathways, affecting the strength of inhibition. This evidence suggests that KARs play a crucial role in regulating the balance between excitation and inhibition in neural circuits.

Modulation of Increased mGluR1 Signaling by RGS8 Protects Purkinje Cells From Dendritic Reduction and Could Be a Common Mechanism in Diverse Forms of Spinocerebellar Ataxia

Qin-Wei Wu et al.

Summary: RGS8 has been identified as a key mediator in the pathogenesis of SCAs, affecting the mGluR1 pathway in Purkinje cells. Overexpression of RGS8 can partially counteract the negative effects of DHPG-induced dendrite expansion in Purkinje cells.

Regulation and dysregulation of neuronal circuits by KARs

Christophe Mulle et al.

Summary: Kainate receptors (KARs) are ionotropic glutamate receptors that play important physiological roles in neuronal circuits, regulating EPSCs as post-synaptic receptors and controlling ion channels through non-canonical metabotropic actions. KARs, activated by endogenous glutamate, modulate neuronal circuit activity and plasticity under normal physiological conditions.

Architecture and structural dynamics of the heteromeric GluK2/K5 kainate receptor

Nandish Khanra et al.

Summary: The study presents the first structure of a KAR heteromer, showing how GluK2 subunits undergo structural rearrangements during desensitization to facilitate channel closure. It also reveals that the large conformational differences between antagonist-bound and desensitized states are mediated by the linkers connecting the pore helices to the ligand binding domains.

Clustered mutations in the GRIK2 kainate receptor subunit gene underlie diverse neurodevelopmental disorders

Jacob R. Stolz et al.

Summary: Variants in the GRIK2 gene can lead to a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by intellectual disability and developmental delay, with different outcomes depending on mono-allelic or bi-allelic effects. Shared GRIK2 variants among patients are associated with overlapping behavioral and neurological dysfunctions, indicating the pathogenic nature of these mutations. Functional studies on mutant GRIK2 variants in Kainate receptors reveal complex effects on receptor properties and contribute to a better understanding of the role of KARs in early nervous system development.

Summary: This study demonstrates the expression of KAR glutamate receptors in adult-born dentate granule cells and their impact on the functional properties of young cells during development through interaction with GABAergic signaling mechanisms. Disruption of KARs in a cohort of young adult-born neurons in mice affected their performance in a spatial discrimination task but not in a hippocampal-dependent fear conditioning task, highlighting the importance of KARs in the proper functional development of young cells.
