Current and voltage-clamp techniques were used to study the effects of kainic (KA) and quisqualic (quis) acids on the slow synaptic inhibition evoked by mossy fibre stimulation in CA3 hippocampal pyramidal neurones in vitro. The K + conductance underlying the slow synaptic inhibition is coupled to a

We investigated the role of kainate (KA) receptor activation and desensitization in inducing the increase in the intracellular free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in individual cultured rat hippocampal neurons. The rat hippocampal neurons in the cultures were shown to express kainate receptor su
The effects of glutamate on the noradrenergic innervation of the rat vas deferens have been investigated. Administration of a single dose of kainate (50 ,ug) to the peripheral noradrenergic ganglia innervating the vas deferens induced a time-dependent decrease of norepinephrine in the organ; after 1
