A Transmembrane Accessory Subunit that Modulates Kainate-Type Glutamate Receptors

open access: yes, 2009
SummaryGlutamate receptors play major roles in excitatory transmission in the vertebrate brain. Among ionotropic glutamate receptors (AMPA, kainate, NMDA), AMPA receptors mediate fast synaptic transmission and require TARP auxiliary subunits.

Structure and Mechanism of Kainate Receptor Modulation by Anions

open access: yes, 2007
SummaryL-glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the human brain, activates a family of ligand-gated ion channels, the major subtypes of which are named AMPA, kainate, and NMDA receptors.

Ketamine disrupts synaptic transmission by interacting at AMPA/Kainate receptor channels in neocortical neurons

open access: yes, 2002
The dissociative anaesthetic, ketamine, is commonly known as a NMDA receptor channel blocker. However, additional mechanisms of action probably contribute to its various clinical effects.
