NMDA receptor clustering in rat prefrontal cortex revealed by in vitro calcium macroimaging
@article{Takita1997NMDARC, title={NMDA receptor clustering in rat prefrontal cortex revealed by in vitro calcium macroimaging}, author={M. Takita and H. Yokoi and T. Mizuno}, journal={NeuroReport}, year={1997}, volume={8}, pages={551–553} }
LIVING coronal brain slices were prepared from the rat prefrontal cortex (pFC) to determine the topographical distribution of the functional calcium-permeable N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor in vitro using calcium macroimage analysis with fura-2 AM. NMDA (0.25, 0.5, 1 or 2 × 10−4 M for 30 s) bath application showed a dose-dependent [Ca2+]i increase from the steady-state level in several portions selected from the whole hemisphere slice. This regional response was suppressed by D-2-amino-5… CONTINUE READING
