Protein quality control of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are glutamate-gated cation channels that mediate excitatory neurotransmission and are critical for synaptic development and plasticity in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS). Functional NMDARs typically form

Roles of N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors (NMDARs) in Epilepsy
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders characterized by recurrent seizures. The mechanism of epilepsy remains unclear and previous studies suggest that N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) play an important role in abnormal ...

L-Pipecolic acid is an intermediate of L-lysine catabolism. Its central injection exerted a hypnotic effect on the brain, which was partially mediated by the activation of γ-aminobutyric acid-A and γ-aminobutyric acid-B receptors. L-Proline has also been

Amiloride but not memantine reduces neurodegeneration, seizures and myoclonic jerks in rats with cardiac arrest-induced global cerebral hypoxia and reperfusion. [PDF]
It has been reported that both activation of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors and acid-sensing ion channels during cerebral ischemic insult contributed to brain injury.

N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors in Hematopoietic Cells: What Have We Learned?
The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) provides a pathway for glutamate-mediated inter-cellular communication, best known for its role in the brain but with multiple examples of functionality in non-neuronal cells.

Research progress of N⁃methyl⁃D⁃aspartate receptor GRIN2A gene variations and epilepsy
In recent years, with the rapid development of gene sequencing technology, a variety of epilepsy pathogenic genes have been discovered, among which GRIN2A gene variations encoding the neurotransmitter N⁃methyl⁃D⁃aspartate receptor (NMDAR) are closely ...
