N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NRs) play an important role in basal ganglia function. By using in situ hybridization with ribonucleotide probes, we investigated the regional and cellular distribution of NR subunit mRNA expression in the human basal ganglia: caudate nucleus, putamen, lateral globus

Evidence is accumulating that glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity plays an important role in neuronal degeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD). In addition, alterations in excitatory amino acid neurotransmission in the basal ganglia contribute to the clinical manifestations of motor dysfunction. Howev
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
## Abstract Mice with deletions of nicotinic ACh receptor (nAChR) subunit genes are valuable models for studying nAChR functions. We could previously show in the mouse superior cervical ganglion (SCG) that the absence of distinct subunits affects the functional properties of receptors. Here, we hav
