In hippocampal slices, inhibition of AMPA receptors unmasks synaptic transmission via NMDA receptors, suggesting that AMPA receptor activation normally inhibits synaptic transmission via NMDA receptors. Activation of NMDA receptors is involved in the pathogenesis of cortical spreading depression
The development of selective, systemically active alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionate (AMPA)/kainate antagonists over the last 4 years has enabled the role of this excitatory amino acid receptor subtype to be scrutinised in the different models of ischaemia. The animal models of
