Peripheral N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor activation contributes to monosodium glutamate-induced headache but not nausea behaviours in rats

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Monosodium glutamate induces behaviors thought to reflect headache and nausea in rats. We explored the effects of the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor antagonist (2R)-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid, the inotropic glutamate receptor antagonist kynurenic acid,

Memantine and Kynurenic Acid: Current Neuropharmacological Aspects [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Neuropharmacology, 2016
Glutamatergic neurotransmission, of special importance in the human brain, is implicated in key brain functions such as synaptic plasticity and memory. The excessive activation of N-methyl- D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors may result in excitotoxic neuronal damage; this process has been implicated in the pathomechanism of different neurodegenerative ...
