Altered Synaptic and Extrasynaptic NMDA Receptor Properties in Substantia Nigra Dopaminergic Neurons From Mice Lacking the GluN2D Subunit
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are ubiquitously expressed in the mammalian brain and are essential for neuronal development, survival and plasticity. GluN2 subunit composition has a profound effect on the properties of NMDARs. In substantia nigra dopaminergic (SNc-DA) neurons, pharmacologic...
