Female mice lacking GluA3 show early onset of hearing loss, cochlear synaptopathy, and afferent terminal swellings in ambient sound levels by Indra Pal, Atri Bhattacharyya, Babak V-Ghaffari, Essence Devine Williams, Maolei Xiao, Mark Allen Rutherford, María Eulalia Rubio

“…Synaptic GluA4:GluA2 ratios increased relative to Gria3WT, particularly in ambient sound, suggesting an activity-dependent increase in calcium-permeable AMPARs in Gria3KO. We propose that lack of GluA3 induces a sex-dependent vulnerability to AMPAR-mediated excitotoxicity.…”

Neuroprotective effects of curculigoside against Alzheimer’s disease via regulation oxidative stress mediated mitochondrial dysfunction in L-Glu-exposed HT22 cells and APP/PS1 mice... by Wenqi Wang, Yidi Qu, Siyu Li, Jinyu Chu, Hongxin Yang, Lirong Teng, Di Wang

“…Observably, CCG in L-Glu-damaged HT22 cells suppressed apoptosis, reduced the accumulation of reactive oxygen species, balanced the mitochondrial membrane potential and prevented the over-influx of calcium. In APP/PS1 mice, 4-week CCG administration significantly improved their memory and behavioral impairments, enhanced the function of cholinergic system, reduced the deposition of Aβ and neurofibrillary fiber tangles caused by tau phosphorylation, and suppressed the development and progression of oxidative stress in brains of APP/PS1 mice. …”
