Effect of memantine on calcium signaling in hippocampal neurons cultured with β-amyloid

Abstract: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia and is characterized by accumulating amyloid (Aβ) plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain. Excessive stimulation of glutamate receptors, mainly NMDA-type, causes intense entry of calcium ions into cells and is a key early step in glutamateinduced excitotoxicity, resulting in many neurological diseases, including AD. Memantine, an NMDA receptor antagonist, blocks NMDA receptors and reduce the influx of calcium ions into neuron. In our experim… Show more
