Drugs that act on NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors, which are essential for learning, memory and moment-by-moment consciousness, are key for treating neuropsychiatric disorders. These drugs were ...
BUFFALO, N.Y. — When it comes to brain proteins, small changes can make a dramatic difference. Researchers studying NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors, which are essential for learning, memory and ...
N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are ligand-gated cation channels activated by glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter. These receptors are located mostly at excitatory synapses and, thereby, ...
Postembedding immunogold labeling was used to determine the relationship between AMPA and NMDA receptor density and size of Schaffer collateral–commissural (SCC) synapses of the adult rat. All SCC ...
