Reduction of the Ca2+ permeability of ligand-gated ion channels as a strategy against excitotoxicity

Excitotoxic damage is due to an excessive Ca2+ entry in cells following overactivation of Ca2+-permeable ion channels. In neurons, Ca2+-dependent excitotoxicity is linked to the prominent activation of N-Methyl-d-Aspartate receptors (NMDARs), exhibiting a high permeability to Ca2+. Different neurode...
