NMDA has been shown to disclose spinal fictive locomotor activity in various in vitro preparations. In the present work the NMDA-mediated effects of endogenously released excitatory aminoacids (EAA) on fictive locomotion in the adult rabbit preparation were assessed in vivo using systemic injections

We have investigated the postnatal development of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in kitten neocortex by measuring the density of [3H] MK801 binding sites. NMDA receptor density in area 17 markedly increases between postnatal day 7 and 35, and then remains at a high level into adulthood. Simil
