Quantitative receptor autoradiography was used to map the distribution in the developing human spinal cord of the three types of ionotropic glutamate receptors. N-methyl-D-Aspartate (NMDA) receptors were labeled with [ 3 H]glutamate, kainic acid (KA) receptors were labeled with [ 3 H]KA, and a-amino

The present study determines the proportions of unmyelinated cutaneous axons at the dermal-epidermal junction in glabrous skin and of myelinated and unmyelinated axons in the sural and medial plantar nerves that immunostain for subunits of the ionotropic glutamate receptors. Approximately 20% of the

Excitotoxicity has been hypothesized to contribute to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) neurodegeneration. The similar pattern of vulnerability in the spinal cord of mutant superoxide dismutase (SOD-1) transgenic mice and mice treated with excitotoxins supports a role for excitotoxicity in the mec
