Memantine protects the cultured rat hippocampal neurons treated by NMDA and amyloid β1–42
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a devastating neurodegenerative condition with no effective treatments. Recent research highlights the role of NMDA receptors in AD development, as excessive activation of these receptors triggers excitotoxicity. Memantine, an
