Conserved contributions of NMDA receptor subtypes to synaptic responses in lamina II spinal neurons across early postnatal development
Abstract NMDA receptors are heteromeric complexes that contribute to excitatory synaptic transmission and plasticity. The presence of specific variants of GluN2 subunits in these complexes enables diversity in NMDA receptor function and regulation. At brain synapses, there is a switch from slow GluN...
