The interactions of putative neuroprotectant compounds with NMDA ion channels

The NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) subtype of the receptors for the excitatory amino acid L-glutamate has been implicated as a mediator of anoxic neuronal death following periods of cerebrovascular ischaemia. Laboratory observations have implicated it in neuronal death occurring in other situations,...
