Tested, Characterized and Research Ready

The amino-acid glutamate is the primary excitatory transmitter in the mammalian CNS. Fast excitatory actions of glutamate are mediated by ionotropic glutamate receptor (iGluR) N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), alpha-amino-3-hydroxi-5-methyl-ioxyzole-4-propionic acid, and kainate receptors. Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) mediate slower glutamate responses through G-protein coupling to various intracellular signaling cascades that can modulate, or fine-tune, iGluR function.
