Abstract: | Background The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-type glutamate receptor expressed at excitatory glutamatergic synapses is required for learning
and memory and is critical for normal brain function. At a cellular level, this receptor plays a pivotal role in triggering
and controlling synaptic plasticity. While it has been long recognized that this receptor plays a regulatory role, it was
considered by many to be itself immune to synaptic activity-induced plasticity. More recently, we and others have shown that
NMDA receptor-mediated synaptic responses can be subject to activity-dependent depression. |
