Glycine, taurine, or muscimol was injected with bicuculline into the cistern magna or the lumbar subarachnoidal space in ICR mice. The effects on bicuculline-induced allodynia in a touch-evoked ...

Synaptic targeting and clustering of GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid)and glycine receptors is mediated by the interaction of these receptor subunits with the cytoskeleton. The intracellular domains of ...

Glycine is an amino acid, a compound that your body uses to create protein. While your body does naturally produce glycine, it is also available through protein-rich foods, particularly meat. Glycine ...

Glycine can stimulate or inhibit neurons in the brain, thereby controlling complex functions. Unraveling the three-dimensional structure of the glycine transporter, researchers have now come a big ...

Activation of ionotropic glycine receptors potentiates glutamate release in mature calyceal nerve terminals of the rat medial nucleus of the trapezoid body, an auditory brainstem nucleus. In young ...

Throughout the timeline of mammalian evolution, higher brain function can be considered as the attribution to some mammalian species' advancement within the hierarchies of various ecosystems. An ...

Glycine is an amino acid that helps build proteins needed for tissue and hormone maintenance. More glycine may help support heart and liver health, improve sleep, reduce diabetes risk, and reduce ...

The amino acid glycine is an important neurotransmitter that regulates memory, reflex, and brain development, and it may also be a biomarker for bacterial virulence. Of the 20 standard amino acids, ...

Chronic cholestasic liver diseases lead to liver injury and ultimately progress to portal fibrosis, cirrhosis, and end-stage liver disease requiring liver transplantation. A research group in the US ...

As the beleaguered Toyota well knows, a stuck gas pedal means a runaway vehicle. In the case of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), neuroscientists have similarly come to believe that overexcitation ...
