Permeation and block of N‐methyl‐D‐aspartic acid receptor channels by divalent cations in mouse cultured central neurones.
1. Spinal cord and hippocampal neurones in cell culture were voltage clamped using the tight‐seal, whole‐cell recording technique. The concentration of sodium and a series of di...
Control of cortical neuronal migration by glutamate and GABA
Neuronal migration in the cortex is controlled by the paracrine action of the classical neurotransmitters glutamate and GABA. Glutamate controls radial migration of pyramidal ne...
5-HT3 receptor ion size selectivity is a property of the transmembrane channel, not the cytoplasmic vestibule portals
5-HT3A receptors select among permeant ions based on size and charge. The membrane-associated (MA) helix lines the portals into the channel’s cytoplasmic vestibule in the 4-Å re...
The Time Course of Glutamate in the Synaptic Cleft
The peak concentration and rate of clearance of neurotransmitter from the synaptic cleft are important determinants of synaptic function, yet the neurotransmitter concentration ...
Molecular cloning, functional properties, and distribution of rat brain alpha 7: a nicotinic cation channel highly permeable to calcium
A full-length clone coding for the rat alpha 7 nicotinic receptor subunit was isolated from an adult brain cDNA library and expressed in Xenopus oocytes. A significant proportio...
