Biological Activity

Description NMDA（N-Methyl-D-aspartic acid）is a specific agonist for NMDA receptor mimicking the action of glutamate, the neurotransmitter which normally acts at that receptor. Phase 4.
Targets
NMDA receptor [1]
In vitro NMDA is an excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter, which only binds to the NMDA receptor without effecting other glutamate receptors (such as those for AMPA and kainate). NMDA specifically binds to the NR2 subunits of NMDA receptor, and then stimulates the open of non-specific cation channel which can allow the passage of Ca2+ and Na+ into the cell and K+ out of the cell. Activation of the NMDA receptor is able to produce the excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP), and trigger the increase of intracellular Ca2+ content which may further take participating in various signaling pathways. NMDA receptor plays a key role in a wide range of physiological (e.g. long-term potentiation and neuronal plasticity) and pathological processes (e.g. excitotoxicity and epilepsy). [1]
