Functional N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors are expressed in cone-driven horizontal cells in carp retina.
Glutamate works as a major excitatory neurotransmitter in the vertebrate retina. Whole-cell recordings made from isolated carp cone horizontal cells (H1 cells) showed that N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), co-applied with glycine, induced inward currents that were blocked by the NMDA receptor competitive antagonist D-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoate (D-AP5) and 5,7-dichlorokynurenic acid (DCKA), a sele...
متن کاملCombined Therapy for Anti-N-methyl D-aspartate Receptor Encephalitis
Background Anti-N-methyl- d-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis is an autoimmune neurological disorder that usually occurs as a paraneoplastic syndrome and is particularly associated with ovarian teratoma. Standard therapy for severe cases is not established and the prognosis in patients who do not respond to first-line treatment is poor. Case Report An 11-year-old boy complained ps...
متن کاملLocalization and interaction of N-methyl-D-aspartate and non-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors of lamprey spinal neurons.
Small volumes of N-Methyl-D-Aspartate (NMDA) and non-NMDA excitatory amino acid receptor agonists were applied to localized regions of the dendritic trees of lamprey spinal neurons along their medial-lateral axis to obtain a spatial map of glutamate receptor distribution. Voltage clamp and frequency domain methods were used to obtain quantitative kinetic data of the voltage dependent ionic chan...
متن کاملN-methyl-D-aspartate receptors are expressed in rat parathyroid gland and regulate PTH secretion.
N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDAR) are tetrameric amino acid receptors which act as membrane calcium channels. The presence of the receptor has been detected in the principal organs responsible for calcium homeostasis (kidney and bone), pointing to a possible role in mineral metabolism. In the present work, the presence of the receptor was determined in normal parathyroid glands (PTG) by re...
متن کاملAmelioration of Pentylenetetrazole-Induced Seizures by Modulators of Sigma, N-Methyl-D-Aspartate, and Ryanodine Receptors in Mice
Background: Sigma receptors, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist, and modulators of intracellular calcium may be useful for seizure control. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the antiepileptic effects of opipramol, a sigma receptor agonist, against pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced seizures in mice and assess ketamine and caffeine interaction with the antiepileptic effects of opipramol.Methods:...
