Glutamate may affect substance abuse
Time of Update: 2020-12-09
Researchers at the U.S. National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) have found that removing a neuroreceptor in mice that controls the release of the neurotransmitter glutamate can make cocaine less effective against it, increasing its chances of quiting cocaine addiction.
The researchers knocked out genes that express the receptor to study the role of mGluR2 in cocaine addiction in mice.

The "glucose receptor mechanism" may treat obesity
Time of Update: 2020-12-09
previous studies have suggested that the decrease in glucose levels causes a decrease in the ATP content of the energy molecules in the cell, which in turn leads to an increase in the level of AMP, another molecule representing a low-energy state, and that AMPK is activated directly by AMP to maintain a metabolic balance.
