GluA2-lacking AMPA receptors in hippocampal CA1 cell synapses: evidence from gene-targeted mice
The GluA2 subunit in heteromeric AMPA receptor channels restricts Ca2+ permeability and block by polyamines, rendering linear the current-voltage relationship of these glutamate-gated cation channels. Although GluA2-lacking synaptic AMPA receptors occur in GABA-ergic inhibitory neurons, hippocampal...
