## Abstract The expression of NMDA receptor NR1 subunit mRNA was studied in rat auditory cortex (AC) on different postnatal days using digoxigenin‐labeled oligonucleotide probes. The results showed that NR1expression increased from birth to postnatal day 35 (P35) and remained constant until P56. Th
Manganese is one of the ubiquitous environmental pollutants that can induce an indirect excitotoxicity caused by altered glutamate (Glu) metabolism. The present study has been carried out to investigate the effect of Mn on the expression of N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NR) subunit mRNAs and protei
Dopaminergic afferents from the mesencephalic areas, such as ventral tegmental area (VTA), synapse with the ␥-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-ergic interneurons in the prefrontal cortex (PFC). Pharmacological and electrophysiological data show that the reinforcement, the dependenceproducing properties, as
We have previously shown that the nicotine-induced dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens can be attenuated by local administration into the ventral tegmental area (VTA), of antagonists at nicotinic and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), but not alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate (AMP
