摘要: Kynurenate produces an unsurmountable antagonism of the response to N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) in baby rat hemisected spinal cord. This effect is completely reversible and prevented by co-superfusion with D-serine or glycine presence strychnine. In kynurenate acts as a weak competitive antagonist. The results suggest that one actions antagonise NMDA responses via action at strychnine-insensitive receptor.
