Direct application of bicuculline methiodide (BIC) to noradrenergic locus coeruleus (LC) neurons potently enhanced their sensory responsiveness. This increased responsiveness was due to the long-lasting expression of a new, N-methyla-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-mediated component of the synaptic respo

A modified medium containing an AMPA receptor antagonist and low concentrations of magnesium was used to investigate the factors governing the botentiation of synaptic responses mediated by NMDA receptors. When long-term potentiation (LTP) was induced in standard medium and NMDA responses were analy
In vitro extracellular single-unit recordings from rat midbrain slices were used to assess the effects of excitatory amino acid agonists on the activity of A10 dopamine neurons. N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA), kainic acid (KA), and a-amino-3hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) elicite
## Abstract Recent studies reveal at least three receptor subtypes for excitatory amino acid (EAA) neurotransmitters. Activation of one of these, the NβmethylβDβaspartate (NMDA) receptorβchannel complex, has been strongly implicated in neuronal mechanisms of several important brain processes, inclu
Synaptic responses mediated by the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAr) and non-NMDAr activation were compared in CA1 hippocampal region of young (3-4 months old) and aged (25-33 months old) Sprague-Dawley rats with the use of ex vivo extracellular recordings techniques. In aged rats, the amplitude
