In a study published in Cell, a research team led by Zhu Shujia from the Center for Excellence in Brain Science and Intelligence Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), along with Li Yang ...

Researchers at Tel Aviv University have made a fundamental discovery: the NMDA receptor (NMDAR)—long studied primarily for its role in learning and memory—also plays a crucial role in stabilizing ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The unconventional N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor subunits GluN3A and GluN3B can, when associated with the other glycine-binding subunit ...

Ketamine, a decades-old anesthetic drug, holds much promise as a new antidepressant. It acts more quickly than traditional antidepressants—on the order of hours rather than weeks—and helps people for ...

When it comes to brain proteins, small changes can make a dramatic difference. Researchers studying NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors, which are essential for learning, memory and moment-by-moment ...

Neurons generated from stem cells (from skin fibroblasts) of a patient with sporadic Alzheimer’s disease. Visualized with a specific green fluorescent marker. Nuclei are shown in blue. Researchers ...

As information zings from cell to cell inside the brain, bursts of electricity spur its transmission. At Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL), scientists have turned their attention to the tiny pores ...
