Abstract excerpt
The effects of ethanol, glycine, and spermidine on the specific binding of [3H]MK-801 were characterized in Triton-treated membranes prepared from the hippocampus and cortex of ethanol-withdrawal seizure-prone (WSP) and -resistant (WSR) mice. Glycine, an allosteric agonist at the NMDA receptor-linked ion channel complex, caused an increase in specific [3H]MK-801 binding to hippocampal membrane preparations. There...
