## Abstract An RTβPCR analysis revealed constitutive expression of mRNA for NβmethylβDβaspartate (NMDA) receptor (NR)β1, NRβ2C, and NRβ2D subunits in rat adrenal and pituitary glands, in addition to brain and retina. Constitutive expression of mRNA was detected for the NRβ2A subunit in pituitary bu
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
## Abstract Hippocampal NβmethylβDβaspartate (NMDA) receptor subunits, by virtue of their involvement in excitotoxic injury as well as memory association, may play an important role in the pathophysiologic mechanisms of traumatic brain injury (TBI). In this study, temporal changes in NMDA receptor
The nucleus accumbens (NAcc) and central amygdala (CeA) are parts of the extended amygdala, a complex that plays a key role in drug abuse and dependence. Our previous studies showed that opiates and ethanol alter glutamatergic transmission in these regions. Nmethyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are k
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
