Journal ArticleDOI

Increased NMDA current and spine density in mice lacking the NMDA receptor subunit NR3A.

TL;DR: The characterization of a regulatory NMDAR subunit, NR3A, is reported, which is expressed primarily during brain development and suggested to be involved in the development of synaptic elements by modulating N MDAR activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroprotection by the NR3A Subunit of the NMDA Receptor

TL;DR: It is found that cultured neurons prepared from NR3A knock-out mice displayed greater sensitivity to damage by NMDA application than wild-type (WT) neurons, and exogenously addedNR3A increases neuroprotection and could be potentially exploited as a therapeutic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroprotective versus neurodestructive effects of NO-related species

TL;DR: Transfer of the NO group to cysteine sulfhydryls on the NMDA receptor or other proteins, known as S‐nitrosylation, is becoming recognized as a ubiquitous regulatory reaction, akin to phosphorylation, and represents a form of redox modulation in diverse tissues including the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

The pharmacology of aminoadamantane nitrates.

TL;DR: These tests provide an initial indication of which of the compounds may have enhanced activity relative to memantine and provide guidance for the synthesis of additional compounds that are likely to have the properties that are being sought.
