The effect of NiLt on glial a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionate (AMPA) receptors was studied using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique in cultured rat cerebellar astrocytes. The application of kainate (10 pM-5 mM) evoked inward currents at a holding potential of -70 mV. These currents
