(Ebook) The Glutamate Receptors by Robert W. Gereau IV ISBN 9781588297921, 1588297926

Glutamate receptors are critically important for normal brain function. This book provides a detailed review of the field. Content: Front Matter; AMPA Receptors; NMDA Receptors; Kainate Receptors; Delta Receptors; Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors in Synaptic Plasticity; Structural Correlates of Ionotropic Glutamate Receptor Function; Positive Modulators of AMPA-Type Glutamate Receptors; Clinically Tolerated Strategies for NMDA Receptor Antagonism; The Structures of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors; Group I Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors (mGlu1 and mGlu5); Group II Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors (mGlu2 and mGlu3); Group III Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors (mGlu4, mGlu6, mGlu7, and mGlu8). Abstract: Covers various aspects of glutamate receptor structure and function for the working researcher and student. This title condenses two previous landmark volumes into one easily accessible volume, and covers the extraordinary research and significant developments in the decade since the previous books were published.
