Abstract excerpt
RATIONALE: Non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonists markedly increase neuronal activity in medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), an effect which partly underlies their schizomimetic actions. Projection pyramidal neurons and local GABAergic interneurons in mPFC express 5-HT(1A) receptors, whose activation modulates dopaminergic (DA) and serotonergic (5-HT) activity in midbrain and the cortical release of both...
