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