1. Does mismatch negativity have utility for NMDA receptor drug development in depression?
Rapid antidepressant effects associated with ketamine have shifted the landscape for the development of therapeutics to treat major depressive disorder (MDD) from a monoaminergic to glutamatergic model. Treatment with ketamine, an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, may be effective, but has many non-glutamatergic targets, and clinical and logis

2. The role of NMDA receptor antagonists, amantadine and memantine, in schizophrenia treatment: a systematic review
Abstract Objective Schizophrenia is a complex and chronic psychiatric disorder. In recent years, studies have found glutamatergic system participation in its etiopathogenesis, especially through aberrant NMDA receptors functioning. Thus, drugs that modulate this activity, as amantadine and memantine, could theoretically be used in its treatment. To perform

3. Potential antidepressant effect of amantadine: a review of preclinical studies and clinical trials
Objective: Amantadine blocks N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and has dopaminergic and noradrenergic action, a neurochemical profile that suggests its potential as an antidepressant drug. We conducted a systematic review of preclinical and clinical studies addressing the effects of amantadine in animal models of depression and in patients with depressi

4. In silico analysis of binding interaction of conantokins with NMDA receptors for potential therapeutic use in Alzheimer’s disease
Abstract Background The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are glutamate receptors that play vital roles in central nervous system development and are involved in synaptic plasticity, which is an essential process for learning and memory. The subunit N-methyl D-aspartate receptor subtype 2B (NR2B) is the chief excitatory neurotransmitter receptor in the

5. PACIENTE COM LONGO CURSO DE PSICOSE E MANIA RECORRENTES APRESENTANDO ENCEFALITE ANTIRRECEPTOR NMDA DEZ ANOS APÓS O PRIMEIRO EPISÓDIO
A encefalite antirreceptor N-metil-D-aspartato (NMDA) é uma doença autoimmune recentemente descoberta, na qual anticorpos têm como alvo os receptors NMDA no cérebro, levando à sua remoção da sinapse. Os pacientes frequentemente desenvolvem psicose e distúrbios de humor proeminentes nas fases iniciais da doença (i.e: mania e depressão), o que explic

6. Um estudo sobre a interação dos sistemas colinérgico nicotínico e dopaminérgico na persistência de memórias aversivas
Long-term memory (LTM) storage requires activation of the ventral tegmental area (VTA)- hippocampus dopaminergic loop and synthesis of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) late after learning (Bekinschtein et al., 2007; Rossato et al., 2009). Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) modulate VTA function. Therefore, we analyzed the involvement of these

7. Análise neurofarmacológica e neuroquímica da expressão de memórias espaciais
Memories are not stored in its final form immediately after the acquisition. They undergo a long stabilization process known as consolidation. Consolidated memories can become labile again after the retrieval and susceptible to the action of amnesic agents. Thus, to persist must go through the re-stabilization process called reconsolidation. Several evidence

8. A participação de diferentes sistemas neuromodulatórios no hipocampo, núcleo basolateral da amígdala e córtex pré-frontal ventromedial na extinção de memórias aversivas
Extinction consists of the learned inhibition of retrieval of previously acquired memory. Many forms of learning are modulated by ¿-noradrenergic, D1-dopaminergic and H2-histaminergic receptors on ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC), basolateral amygdala (BLA) and dorsal hippocampus. Therefore, the aim of this work was investigated the modulation of aver

9. Envolvimento de Rac1 na excitotoxicidade induzida por NMDA na retina de ratos. / Involvement of Rac1 in NMDA-induced excitotoxicity in the rat retina.
A ativação excessiva dos receptores NMDA tem sido descrita no disparo da morte neuronal que ocorre em doenças, como o glaucoma. É possível que a combinação de subunidades (NR2A-D) possa ativar vias de sinalização intracelulares que resultam na morte ou sobrevivência. Nosso objetivo foi investigar o envolvimento de subunidades NR2 e Rac1, membro da

10. Imunodetecção do receptor metabotrópico mGluR8 no núcleo arqueado do hipotálamo de ratos Wistar e estudo dos efeitos, no receptor, resultantes da exposição oral sub-crônica ao glutamato monossódico / Imunodetecction of mGluR8 receptor in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus of Wistar rats and study of the effects, on the receptor, resulting from sub-chronic exposure to monosodium glutamate
Food is part of human culture not only associated to physiological needs. Food is composed of several molecules among them amino acids. Glutamate (GLU) is the anion of one of the main amino acids found in foods that, besides being part of the food composition, is a molecule essential for human physiology. It can also be ingested due to the use of the food ad

11. Role of nitric oxide in the periaqueductal gray in defensive behavior in mice: influence of prior local N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor activation and aversive condition
Glutamate N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor activation within the dorsal column of the periaqueductal gray (dPAG) leads to antinociceptive, autonomic, and behavioral responses characterized as the fear reaction. Activation of NMDA receptors in the brain increases nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, and NO has been proposed to be a mediator of the aversive action

12. Protective mechanism of agmatine pretreatment on RGC-5 cells injured by oxidative stress
Agmatine has neuroprotective effects on retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) as well as cortical and spinal neurons. It protects RGCs from oxidative stress even when it is not present at the time of injury. As agmatine has high affinity for various cellular receptors, we assessed protective mechanisms of agmatine using transformed RGCs (RGC-5 cell line). Differenti
