Anti–N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor encephalitis may present with a wide variety of early neuropsychiatric symptoms such as psychosis, insomnia, catatonia, and agitation, and at times in the absence of fever. The literature highlights the vital role ...

Learn about NMDA receptors, what they do in your brain, what illnesses they're involved with, and what treatments target them.

Visualizing neurotransmitter receptor traffic is fundamental to understanding brain functions, but the current imaging methods can compromise the process. Here, the authors synthesize small fluorescent probes to label endogenous glutamate receptors in cell cultures and brain tissues, without affecting their function.

NYX-783, a newly discovered drug, helps modulate NMDA receptor function in neurons. The drug appears to be effective at suppressing the return of PTSD symptoms in rodent models.

HOUSTON —December 13, 2017—Researchers at Houston Methodist believe that a significant number of people diagnosed with schizophrenia or bipolar

Glutamate is a powerful excitatory neurotransmitter that is released by nerve cells in the brain. It is responsible for sending signals between nerve cells, and under normal conditions it plays an important role in learning and memory. There are two general ways, however, that glutamate can actually be damaging to nerve cells and the brain […]

This volume provides a history of and an update on the functional status of the NMDA receptors. The NMDA receptors are essential for neuronal development, synaptic plasticity, learning, and cell survival. It covers molecular, cellular, anatomical, biochemical, and behavioral aspects, to highlight their distinctive regulatory properties, their functional…
