Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> In recent years, a growing body of evidence highlights a causal link between glutamate and depression. The membrane excitatory amino acid transporter 2 (EAAT2), encoded by SLC1A2 is responsible for the uptake and redistribution of most of the synaptic glutamate. Glycine, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, acts as an obligatory co-agonist of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and modulates exc...
