The interferon-inducible transmembrane protein (IFITM) family inhibits a growing number of
pathogenic viruses, among them influenza A virus, dengue virus, hepatitis C virus, and …

To correctly transfer information, neuronal networks need to continuously adjust their
synaptic strength to extrinsic stimuli. This ability, termed synaptic plasticity, is at the heart of …

Molecular and cellular processes in neurons are critical for sensing and responding to
energy deficit states, such as during weight-loss. Agouti related protein (AGRP)-expressing …

Repeated head impact exposure can cause memory and behavioral impairments. Here, we
report that exposure to non-damaging, but high frequency, head impacts can alter brain …

Regulation of AMPA receptor (AMPAR)-mediated synaptic transmission is a key mechanism
for synaptic plasticity. In the brain, AMPARs assemble with a number of auxiliary subunits …

The dispanins are a family of 15 transmembrane proteins that have diverse and often
unclear physiological functions. Many dispanins, including synapse differentiation induced …

Long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) are important cellular
mechanisms underlying learning and memory processes. N-Methyl-d-aspartate receptor …

Altering AMPA receptor (AMPAR) content at synapses is a key mechanism underlying the
regulation of synaptic strength during learning and memory. Previous work demonstrated …

Ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) are tetrameric ligand-gated cation channels that
mediate excitatory signal transmission in the central nervous system (CNS) of vertebrates …

Fast excitatory synaptic transmission in the brain is mediated by glutamate acting on
postsynaptic AMPA receptors. Recent studies have revealed a substantial number of AMPA …
