NMDA receptor activation enhances inhibitory GABAergic transmission onto hippocampal pyramidal neurons via presynaptic and postsynaptic mechanisms by Xue, Jiu Gang, Masuoka, Takayoshi, Gong, Xian Di, Chen, Ken-Shiung, Yanagawa, Yuchio, Law, Alex Sai Kit, Konishi, Shiro

“…Here, we report that a brief application of NMDA could induce two distinct actions in CA1 pyramidal neurons in mouse hippocampal slices: 1) an inward current attributed to activation of postsynaptic NMDARs; and 2) fast phasic synaptic currents, namely spontaneous inhibitory postsynaptic currents (sIPSCs), mediated by GABAA receptors in pyramidal neurons. …”
