Dextromethorphan Inhibits the Glutamatergic Synaptic Transmission in the Nucleus Tractus Solitarius of Guinea Pigs
Abstract.: Dextromethorphan (DEX) is a widely used non-opioid antitussive. However, the precise site of action and its mechanism were not fully understood. We examined the effects of DEX on AMPA receptor–mediated glutamatergic transmission in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) of guinea pigs. Exci...
