摘要
The excitatory postsynaptic potential mediated by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors (NMDA-EPSP) was intracellularly obtained in slices from the visual cortex of adult and 2-week-old rats. Bath application of 0.3 muM (+)-MK-801, an NMDA receptor open-channel blocker, completely blocked NMDA-EPSPs in slices from adult rats. By contrast, in slices from the younger rats, a 10 muM solution was needed for the complete blockade. This difference in sensitivity to an open-channel blocker implies a major developmental change in the conformation of NMDA receptors in situ.
