Nanoscale-targeted patch-clamp recordings of functional presynaptic ion channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Important modulatory roles have been attributed to presynaptic NMDA receptors (NMDARs) located on cerebellar interneuron terminals. Evidence supporting a presynaptic location includes an increase in the frequency of mini events following the application ...

Structure, function, and allosteric modulation of NMDA receptors

open access: yesThe Journal of General Physiology, 2018
NMDA-type glutamate receptors are ligand-gated ion channels that mediate a Ca2+-permeable component of excitatory neurotransmission in the central nervous system (CNS).

Norrin Protects Retinal Ganglion Cells from Excitotoxic Damage via the Induction of Leukemia Inhibitory Factor

open access: yesCells, 2020
Purpose: To investigate whether and how leukemia inhibitory factor (Lif) is involved in mediating the neuroprotective effects of Norrin on retinal ganglion cells (RGC) following excitotoxic damage.

The NMDA agonist D-cycloserine facilitates fear memory consolidation in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Animal research suggests that the consolidation of fear and extinction memories depends on N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA)- type glutamate receptors.

The effects of memantine on prepulse inhibition. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Reduced prepulse inhibition (PPI) of startle provides evidence of deficient sensorimotor gating in several disorders, including schizophrenia. The role of NMDA neurotransmission in the regulation of PPI is unclear, due to cross-species differences in the

Treatment of Cerebral Ischemia Through NMDA Receptors: Metabotropic Signaling and Future Directions

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Excessive activation of N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors after cerebral ischemia is a key cause of ischemic injury. For a long time, it was generally accepted that calcium influx is a necessary condition for ischemic injury mediated by NMDA ...

Memory and the NMDA Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2009
Ablating mice of Neto1, a component that stabilizes a postsynaptic glutamate receptor, results in a deficit in memory and learning — a deficit ameliorated by administration of a glutamate-receptor stimulant.

GABA\u3csub\u3eA\u3c/sub\u3e and excitatory amino acid receptors in dorsomedial hypothalamus and heart rate in rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
We have previously shown that microinjection of drugs that interfere with the function of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) into the hypothalamus produces cardiorespiratory and behavioral changes resembling those seen in ...

Interaction of hypothalamic GABA\u3csub\u3eA\u3c/sub\u3e and excitatory amino acid receptors controlling heart rate in rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
We have previously shown that microinjection of drugs that impair gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-mediated synaptic inhibition into the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) of rats generates cardiovascular and behavioral changes that mimic the response to ...

The Role of NMDA Receptors in Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), early synaptic dysfunction is associated with the increased oligomeric amyloid-beta peptide, which causes NMDAR-dependent synaptic depression and spine elimination. Memantine, low-affinity NMDAR channel blocker, has been used
