Molecular mechanisms of excitotoxicity and their relevance to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases—an update
19 May 2025
Abstract excerpt
Glutamate excitotoxicity is intricately linked to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, exerting a profound influence on cognitive functions such as learning and memory in mammals. Glutamate, while crucial for these processes, can lead to neuronal damage and death when present in excessive amounts. Our previous review delved into the cascade of excitotoxic injury events and the underlying mechanisms of...
