Excitatory amino acid antagonists for acute stroke [PDF]
Focal cerebral ischaemia causes release of excitatory amino acid (EAA) neurotransmitters, principally glutamate, with resultant over-stimulation of EAA receptors and downstream pathways. Excess glutamate release is a pivotal event in the evolution of irreversible ischaemic damage in animal models of ischaemia, and drugs that modulate glutamate action ...

Excitatory Amino-Acid Antagonists and Their Possible Clinical Application
A brief review of the pharmacology of some excitatory amino-acid receptor antagonists, active at the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subtype, and prospects of their possible therapeutic indication are given.

Action of excitatory amino acids and their antagonists on hippocampal neurons
Intracellular recordings were obtained from guinea pig hippocampal neurons maintained in vitro. Current- and voltage-clamp techniques were used to study the effect of microiontophoresis of excitatory amino acid agonists. Modification of agonist responses by bath application of known concentrations of antagonist agents was also examined.

Effects of excitatory amino acid antagonists on the phasic depolarizing events that occur in lumbar motoneurons during REM periods of active sleep [PDF]
The membrane potential of lumbar motoneurons is dominated during the tonic periods of active sleep by glycine-mediated inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSPs). During the phasic rapid eye movement (REM) periods of active sleep there are also IPSPs but,
