When it comes to brain proteins, small changes can make a dramatic difference. Researchers studying NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors, which are essential for learning, memory and moment-by-moment ...
Scientists have identified a promising target for treatment of a devasting autoimmune disease affecting the brain.
In a recent study published in Nature, researchers developed the MK-801 bimodal drug that successfully cures obesity, hyperglycemia, and dyslipidemia in mouse models of metabolic illness by combining ...
BUFFALO, N.Y. — When it comes to brain proteins, small changes can make a dramatic difference. Researchers studying NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors, which are essential for learning, memory and ...
Three distinct snapshots obtained with cryo-electron microscopy illustrate the arrangement of two of the four symmetrical subunits that make a functional NMDA receptor. During activation, as the ...
