Excitatory amino acids and intracellular pH in motoneurons of the isolated frog spinal cord.
Double-barrelled pH-sensitive micro-electrodes were used to measure changes of intracellular and extracellular pH in and around motoneurons of the isolated frog spinal cord during application of excitatory amino acids. It was found that N-methyl-D-aspartate, quisqualate and kainate produced a concentration-dependent intracellular acidification. Extracellularly, triphasic pH changes (acid-alkali...
متن کاملExcitatory amino acid neurotransmission.
In recent years great progress has been made in understanding the function of ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors; their pharmacology and potential therapeutic applications. It should be stressed that there are already N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists in clinical use, such as memantine, which proves the feasibility of their therapeutic potential. It seems unlikely that compet...
متن کاملOpposing effects of excitatory amino acids on chick embryo spinal cord motoneurons: excitotoxic degeneration or prevention of programmed cell death.
Acute administration of a single dose of NMDA on embryonic day (E) 7 or later induces a marked excitotoxic injury in the chick spinal cord, including massive necrotic motoneuron (MN) death. When the same treatment was performed before E7, little, if any, excitotoxic response was observed. Chronic treatment with NMDA starting on E5 prevents the excitotoxic response produced by a later "acute" ad...
متن کاملImpaired Excitatory Drive to Spinal Gabaergic Neurons of Neuropathic Mice
Adequate pain sensitivity requires a delicate balance between excitation and inhibition in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. This balance is severely impaired in neuropathy leading to enhanced pain sensations (hyperalgesia). The underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here we explored the hypothesis that the excitatory drive to spinal GABAergic neurons might be impaired in neuropathic animals. ...
