Integrated Regulation of Signal Coding and Plasticity by NMDA Receptors at a Central Synapse
The role of NMDA and non-NMDA glutamate receptors in long-term potentiation has been intensely investigated, yet recent evidence on the dynamics of synaptic depolarization suggests that the original view should be extended.

Radical Pair Model for Magnetic Field Effects on NMDA Receptor Activity [PDF]
The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor is a prominent player in brain development and functioning. Perturbations to its functioning through external stimuli like magnetic fields can potentially affect the brain in numerous ways. Various studies have shown that magnetic fields of varying strengths affect these receptors.

Multiscale Organization of Neural Networks in a 3D Bioprinted Matrix
A 3D bioprint model of primary neurons has been engineered with a millimeterâscale functional neural network, and it recapitulates in vivo transcriptomic features under both normal and disease conditions to the greatest extent. The successful integration of mature neurons and 3D bioprinting signifies a major advance in neuroscience modeling ...

Activation of NMDA receptors in brain endothelial cells increases transcellular permeability
Neurovascular coupling is a precise mechanism that induces increased blood flow to activated brain regions, thereby providing oxygen and glucose.

LRFN2 encodes a synaptic adhesion-like molecule that physically interacts with N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor 1 and its scaffold proteins. Previous studies in humans and mice have demonstrated its genetic association with neurodevelopmental ...

A single psychotomimetic dose of ketamine decreases thalamocortical spindles and delta oscillations in the sedated rat [PDF]
Background: In patients with psychotic disorders, sleep spindles are reduced, supporting the hypothesis that the thalamus and glutamate receptors play a crucial etio-pathophysiological role, whose underlying mechanisms remain unknown. We hypothesized that a reduced function of NMDA receptors is involved in the spindle deficit observed in schizophrenia.

Application and Assessment of Deep Learning for the Generation of Potential NMDA Receptor Antagonists [PDF]
Uncompetitive antagonists of the N-methyl D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) have demonstrated therapeutic benefit in the treatment of neurological diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, but some also cause dissociative effects that have led to the synthesis of illicit drugs.

Background Acute exposure of ethanol (alcohol) inhibits NMDA receptor function. Our previous study showed that acute ethanol inhibited the pressor responses induced by NMDA applied intrathecally; however, prolonged ethanol exposure may increase the ...

Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis or Psychiatric disorder?
Introduction Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor encephalitis commonly begins with a prodromal phase characterized by flu-like symptoms, subsequently the patients experience a rapid deterioration with psychiatric symptoms that may include anxiety,

Annexin, a Protein for All Seasons: From Calcium Dependent Membrane Metabolism to RNA Recognition
Annexins are an important protein family traditionally well known to bind to phospholipids and to interact with various proteins in a calcium dependent way. More recently, it has been established that a feature common to the family is also to bind to RNA having a role in translation. In bies70019 article, Vedeler et al.
