Neuroprotection via Strychnine-Sensitive Glycine Receptors During Post-ischemic Recovery of Excitatory Synaptic Transmission in the Hippocampus

Recent evidence indicates that strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors are located in upper brain regions including the hippocampus. Because of excitatory effects of glycine via facilitation of NMDA-receptor function, however, the net effects of increased extracellular glycine on neuronal excitabilit...
