NMDA RECEPTOR ACTIONS ARE ESSENTIAL TO
The NMDA Receptor plays a
critical role in
cognitive and psychological functions.
The NMDA (N-Methyl D-Aspartate) Receptor
NMDA-R is co-activated by Glutamate and Glycine.
Glycine acts as a co-factor to safely activate the receptor.
Glutamate activity in excess can produce excitotoxicity causing damage and death to neurons
NMDA is a Receptor in the
Glutamate Neurotransmitter System (GNS)
NMDA-Rs have a role to play in diverse
and complex processes of mind and brain including:
​
-
Memory Formation and Long Term Potentiation (LTP)
-
Excitotoxicity and Stroke Outcome
-
Ego and Frontal Lobe Function
-
Pain and Opiate Tolerance
-
Alcoholism and Drug Abuse
-
Schizophrenia and Depression
-
Anhedonia
-
Age-Related Memory Decline
-
Dementia and Alzheimers
-
ADHD
-
Neuroprotection
NMDA-R abnormalities contribute to
cognitive and psychological deficits
that are challenging to treat.
