Uses of magnesium sulfate in anesthesiology
Revista Médica del Hospital General de México, 2022 Introduction: Magnesium sulfate heptahydrate (MgSO4 7H2O) is a divalent cation, pharmacologically its mechanism has been as a reversible blocker of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) and therefore has been proposed in the use of anesthesiology ...

An expanding range of targets for kynurenine metabolites of tryptophan [PDF]
, 2013 The kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism accounts for most of the tryptophan that is not committed to protein synthesis and includes compounds active in the nervous and immune systems.

Anti-N-Methyl-d-Aspartate Receptor Encephalitis
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2013 A case of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis with an atypical finding of transient increased intracranial pressure is reported. Anti-NMDAR encephalitis is an underrecognized, novel and treatable form of encephalitis being increasingly identified as an explanation of encephalitis in young adults.

Ketamine: NMDA receptors and beyond [PDF]
, 2016 Human studies examining the effects of the dissociative anesthetic ketamine as a model for psychosis and as a rapidly acting antidepressant have spurred great interest in understanding ketamine's actions at molecular, cellular, and network levels ...

In developing hippocampal neurons, NR2B-containing N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) can mediate signaling to neuronal survival and synaptic potentiation, as well as neuronal death [PDF]
, 2009 It has been suggested that NR2B-containing N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors have a selective tendency to promote pro-death signaling and synaptic depression, compared with the survival promoting, synapse potentiating properties of NR2A-containing ...

Anti-N-Methyl-d-Aspartate Receptor Encephalitis
Pediatrics & Neonatology, 2011 Anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor encephalitis is a treatment-responsive encephalitis associated with anti-NMDA receptor antibodies, which bind to the NR1/NR2 heteromers of the NMDA receptors. It is a highly characteristic syndrome evolving in five stages: the prodromal phase (viral infection-like symptoms), psychotic phase, unresponsive phase,

Effects of sarcosine and N, N-dimethylglycine on NMDA receptor-mediated excitatory field potentials [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: Sarcosine, a glycine transporter type 1 inhibitor and an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor co-agonist at the glycine binding site, potentiates NMDA receptor function.

The GluN3 subunit regulates ion selectivity within native N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors
IBRO Reports, 2020 Glutamatergic N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are heterotetrameric proteins whose subunits are derived from three gene families, GRIN1 (codes for GluN1), GRIN2 (GluN2) and GRIN3 (GluN3).

Pharmacology of triheteromeric N-Methyl-d-Aspartate Receptors [PDF]
Neuroscience Letters, 2016 The N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors (NMDARs) are heteromeric cation channels involved in learning, memory, and synaptic plasticity, and their dysregulation leads to various neurodegenerative disorders. Recent evidence has shown that apart from the GluN1/GluN2A and GluN1/GluN2B diheteromeric ion channels, the NMDAR also exists as a GluN1/GluN2A/GluN2B ...
