Role of NMDA Receptor-Mediated Glutamatergic Signaling in Chronic and Acute Neuropathologies

N-Methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) have two opposing roles in the brain. On the one hand, NMDARs control critical events in the formation and development of synaptic organization and synaptic plasticity. On the other hand, the overactivation of NMDARs can promote neuronal death in neuropatholog...
