Abstract excerpt

Quantitative receptor autoradiography was used to map the distribution in the developing human spinal cord of the three types of ionotropic glutamate receptors. N-methyl-D-Aspartate (NMDA) receptors were labeled with [3H]glutamate, kainic acid (KA) receptors were labeled with [3H]KA, and alpha-am...
