Localization of the somatostatin sst2(a) receptor in human cerebral cortex, hippocampus and cerebellum.

abstract：:Emerging evidence has suggested that alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionate (AMPA) protects neurons from glutamate-induced neurotoxicity. In this study, we examined the effect of AMPA on the cell surface expression of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, a central player in glutamate-induced neurot...
